Luminosity gaming leave CS:GO scene

Canadian multi-gaming Luminosity announced its decision to quit Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. The players of the line-up received the status of free agents and retained their slots in the Esports Championship Series and ESL Pro League.

According to the Brazilian portal Mais Esports, which announced the intentions of Luminosity on the eve of the official announcement, the reason for this decision was the recent unsuccessful results of the team. The open stage of the North American qualification to DreamHack Masters Malmo 2019, where the Brazilian team stopped at the stage of 1/8 finals, was considered by the management of the club as the last chance for this squad.

Players will continue to perform together and are currently looking for a new organization. This was announced on Twitter by the coach of the team Rafael "zakk" Fernandez.

Former line-up of Luminosity:

Brazil Gabriel "NEKIZ" Chenato
Brazil Lucas "steel" Lopez
Brazil Ricardo "boltz" Prass
Brazil Joao "felps" Vasconcellos (rented from MiBR)
Brazil Felipe "skullz" Medeiros (rented from W7M)

Brazil Rafael "zakk" Fernandez (coach)
