TSM reportedly close to signing new CS2 roster core highlighted by former G2 C9 players

TSM is reportedly closing in on signing a roster core that will lead the organization’s return to Counter-Strike after more than six years away, seemingly moving ahead with an international roster of players for CS2 including some of the biggest names in the scene.

According to French CS journalist neL for 1pv, TSM is “on the verge” of signing the trio of Englishman Cai “CYPHER” Watson, French player Audric “JACKZ” Jug, and Russian player Timofey “interz” Yakushin, all under the direction of former Vitality/G2 coach Rémy “XTQZZZ” Quoniam. NeL reports that XTQZZZ was behind the scenes aiding Vitality still during their BLAST Paris Major victory in May, despite stepping back from the head coaching role at the end of 2022.
