Imperial strengthens its roster with analyst

32-year-old Brazilian esports athlete Caio "zqkS" Fonseca has returned to Imperial, which he represented as a player from 2018 to 2019 and from 2020 to 2022. The club announced this via its X social media account.

This time, Fonsec took over as analyst in the Imperial Counter-Strike 2 roster. Previously, zqkS had never carried out the duties of an analyst/coach. During his entire career as a CS pro player, he has earned $29,000 in prize money.

zqkS will debut in his new role tomorrow, September 10, at the 20th season of ESL Pro League – the team will face BIG in the first round of Group C. Imperial currently holds 37th place in HLTV ranking.

Note that in July of this year, Santino "try" Rigal was added to the Imperial roster. He replaced Henrique "HEN1" Teles. Before that, the 19-year-old Argentine AWPer had been on 9z's bench for a long time.
