CSGO star Oskar reveals why he\u2019s not giving up on his career Counter-Strike: Global Offensive star Tom\u00e1\u0161 \u201coskar\u201d \u0160\u0165astn\u00fd was signed to Sprout earlier today, and revealed that he almost did not return to professional play after leaving the HellRaisers lineup. Oskar has been a legendary part of the Hellraisers and other CS:GO lineups for most of the game\u2019s storied history. All of that almost came to an end after he departed the Hellraisers roster on the back of their disappointing finish at the StarLadder Berlin Major. We could hardly wait and you all have been waiting for it too: It is an exceeding pleasure for us to welcome the Czech #csgo prodigy @CSGOoskar in the Sprout family and add another extremely valuable player to our roster.Ahoj Tom\u00e1\u0161, let’s show them what you got!#GrowSprout \ud83c\udf31 pic.twitter.com\/4GceyJyJY3 \u2014 Sprout (@sproutGG) January 3, 2020 \u201cI\u2019m not going to lie, I immediately wanted to return and play, but I didn\u2019t play as much CS as I would have imagined, I\u2019d be surprised if I played more than 30 hours after the Major,\u201d Oskar told HLTV in an interview. \u201cIt was a tough period, I even had a plan that took a surprising turn, and that took away a lot of my motivation to come back. I was considering whether it was still worth it to keep playing, but I decided I wouldn\u2019t give up that easily. I still like to play and I want to give it my all.\u201d That ended up not being the case as Sprout picked up the 28-year-old AWPer to round out their roster and continue his impressive playing career. Had that not been the case, the Czech player said that he may have built and all Czech Republic team, but that plan will have to wait now that he\u2019s signed on with Sprout.

I think it\u2019s going to be a good experience for everyone and I\u2019m looking forward to getting it on the road.\u201d Sprout\u2019s new roster consists of Timo \u201cSpiidi\u201d Richter, Josef \u201cfaveN\u201d Baumann, Denis Howell, and Niclas \u201cenkay J\u201d Krumhorn as coach. They\u2019ve yet to announce their fifth player, despite being ranked in the top 30 worldwide as a squad. Despite the newness of the roster, oskar is excited to get to work. \u201cActually, I\u2019d say communication has been on a surprisingly good level, people give quick info and react in time, all of that has been there from the start and that\u2019s important,\u201d the AWPer said. \u201cIt\u2019ll take some time to sync up and perfect communication, but, all in all, I was positively surprised.\u201d Read More: CSGO hits new average player record, breaking two-year old peak Career, Oskar has a 1.18 K\/D Ratio, 79.4 damage per round on average across 977 maps.
