Official: zews out of Fluxo
Brazilian organization Fluxo have officially announced the exit of Wilton "zews" Prado from the team's lineup. The move comes amidst a recent report by Dust2 Brasil that Fluxo's assistant coach Joaquin "lokomotioN" Cuevas is poised to take zews' spot as head coach on the roster.
zews joined up with Fluxo in January of this year, following a brief three-month stint with O PLANO. By and large, Fluxo struggled to qualify for international events during the first half of 2023, with the sole exception being the squad's surprise qualification for the BLAST.tv Paris Major, achieved after taking down yur, BESTIA, and Paquetá in the Americas RMR.
Once at the Major, the Brazilian side were unable to find their footing, getting trounced by their compatriots on paiN in their opening match before being bested by Monte in the 0-1 pool. Fluxo did manage to take their elimination series versus Liquid the distance, but in the end the North American side edged out zews and company to send Fluxo packing 0-3 in their sole international venture of the season.
zews' removal from the team's lineup is not the only move that the team is reportedly slated to make during the offseason. Early last month, it was reported that Fluxo was interested in acquiring Vinícios "PKL" Coelho and Romeu "zevy" Rocco from paiN, in lieu of João "felps" Vasconcellos and Adriano "WOOD7" Cerato.
An additional report by Draft5 also states that Fluxo is interested in acquiring Henrique "t9rnay" Menacho from domestic rivals Red Canids, filling the final spot on the lineup left behind by the benching of Allan "history" Lawrenz.
Should all these moves come to fruition, Fluxo would be:
-
Vinicius "vsm" Moreira -
Lucas "Lucaozy" Neves
-
Vinícios "PKL" Coelho
-
Romeu "zevy" Rocco
-
Henrique "t9rnay" Menacho
-
Joaquin "lokomotioN" Cuevas (Coach)
