G2.Kinguin sign former Titan roster

In less than two weeks after selling its roster to FaZe Clan, G2.Kinguin is back in the CSGO scene after signing the former Titan roster.

G2.Kinguin has announced the acquisition of the former Titan roster today, marking its return to the CSGO scene after a two week absence. The organization has secured the services of one of the best squads in the world, who were left without a organization following the fold of Titan. Fans of the organization and the players will get a chance to see the team in action this coming weekend at the Global eSports Cup, where G2.Kinguin will face Astralis, Cloud9, and Method in Group B.

G2's Chief Gaming Officer, Jakub "Lothar" Szygulski, had the following to say in a statement on the G2 website:

Today is a great day for G2.Kinguin. Ever since we got involved in CS:GO, we have been striving to achieve not only great sportive success but to make a significant contribution to the positive development of the competitive CSGO scene. After weeks of research, discussion and thorough evaluation, we are proud to welcome the former team Titan in G2 esports! This group of passionate, skillful and professional players and managers is determined to get back to the top. We have no doubts that they will achieve their goals and we will throw all our energy and support behind them. On a special note, it’s with great joy that we welcome back our former player, Adil “ScreaM” Benrlitom. It is our commitment to support him in building his legacy.

Jérôme “NiaK” Sudries, who has been retained as the coach for the squad, released this statement on the transfer to G2.Kinguin:

We are both proud and happy to announce that we are joining G2. This club has experienced an awesome development in recent months, owed mainly to the hard work of a competent management team led by Carlos. The players and I are driven by the will to build long-term relationships with the people we work with, and in that respect G2 was the best choice. After Team VeryGames and Titan, this is the beginning of a new chapter for us, and our main goal is to get back to the top of the CS:GO rankings, of which we have been out for far too long.

The new G2.Kinguin team includes:
Belgium Kévin “Ex6TenZ” Droolans
Belgium Adil “ScreaM” Benrlitom
France Cédric “RpK” Guipouy
France Richard “shox” Papillon
