It's out with the old and in with the new-kkye for G2 Esports this spring, as the organisation has removed their deadwood trio and bolstered their ranks with some of EU's finest talent.

Shortly after revealing the departure of Aleksander "zeek" Zygmunt, Ardis "ardiis" Svarenieks, and Patryk "paTiTek" Fabrowski, G2 Esports has now revealed their new VALORANT roster, boasting a Stage 1 EU champion.

Retaining two of their old-guard in the shape of in-game leader Óscar "mixwell" Cañellas Colocho and Swedish-born Jacob "pyth" Mourujärvi, the three new arrivals round off the five-man roster in a dangerous fashion.

Auni "AvovA" Chahade
Jose "koldamenta" Luis Aranguren Herrero

Team Heretics' duo of nukkye and AvovA come in as straight swaps for ardiis and paTiTek, with the former G2 men travelling in the opposite direction. Meanwhile, koldamenta is paired with Spanish comrade mixwell, after leaving Acend earlier today.
