EG bolsters CS:GO backroom with retired NA veteran

Evil Geniuses Counter-Strike division has been on a spree of acquisitions left, proper, and heart. It looks like virtually each participant in North America has been part of both Evil Geniuses, EG Black, EG White, or EG Gold.

This spending spree hasn’t ended but, with EG taking up former CS:GO professional Alan “Shakezullah” Hardeman as an assistant coach, according to Dust 2.

Sadly, EGs tactic of buying each participant possible hasn’t netted them strong outcomes. Nevertheless, the change in coaches may be a step in a route, wherever they’re going. Shakezullah has been part of the NA CS:GO scene for roughly 5 years, and brings a wealth of expertise within the Americas area. The American beforehand performed for the rag-tag Dangerous Information Bears roster as their IGL and had some success alongside the best way.

The squad was capable of deal with the competitors in NA, however as quickly as they flew throughout the pond, the EU and CIS groups brushed them apart with ease. Dangerous Information Bears have been capable of win Fragadelphia 15, however since then struggled to be a dominant drive.

Beforehand, there had been controversy within the EG roster concerning certain former members and the reception of critique from their coaches. This has precipitated considerably of a meltdown within the EG roster, leaving them on a seamless conveyor belt of coaches and gamers alike, with some leaving solely after a brief stint.

This step could possibly be the primary transfer to set them on the suitable path.

EG remains to be left and not using a remaining participant for the beginning roster. They presently have Jerric “wiz” Jiang, Jeorge “⁠jeorgesnorts⁠” Endicott, and Wesley “viz” Harris as their stand-ins for the upcoming BLAST occasions.

If one of many Counter-Strike stand-ins proves themselves at BLAST, the EG participant acquisition tactic might lastly be of use to the group, instead of controversy.
