Cédric “RpK” Guipouy was advised by a specialist to avoid flying for the next few weeks to prevent further irritation of an ear problem, G2 use former LDLC player Simon “Fuks” Florysiak to supplement roster.
G2 announced earlier today that their top performing player at the recent major, ESL One Cologne 2016, will be unable to travel to Atlanta to compete in the ELEAGUE Season 1 playoffs due to a perforated eardrum. G2 had previously submitted two players as substitutes and now they elected to use “Fuks”, a former teammate of Alexandre “bodyy” Pianaro on LDLC, to try to secure a spot in the playoffs by advancing out of the last chance qualifier.
“Fuks” had this to say about his opportunity to compete with G2:
G2’s roster for the rest of ELEAGUE will be the following:
Richard "shox" Papillon
Alexandre "bodyy" Pianaro
Edouard "SmithZz" Dubourdeaux
Adil "ScreaM" Benrlitom
Simon "Fuks" Florysiak
The single-elimination ELEAGUE last chance qualifier begins on Wednesday for G2 against Mousesports and then a potential match between the winner of FaZe Clan and CLG to secure a spot at the playoffs.
