Imperial has officially welcomed Richard “chayJESUS” Seidy to their Counter-Strike roster, securing the player from Fluxo, both organizations confirmed. This acquisition fills the gap left by João “felps” Vasconcellos, who transferred to RED Canids earlier this month.
chayJESUS’s journey with Fluxo began in October 2023 after a transfer from Sharks. He spent ten months as a core member of the starting lineup before being benched in favor of Kayke “kye” Bertolucci. Following his time on the bench, he competed in online tournaments with Tropa do Taco, alongside familiar names like Epitacio “TACO” de Melo and Vinicius “vsm” Moreira.
Imperial is banking on this roster change to revitalize the team, particularly after a lackluster end to their 2024 season. Their early exit from the Shanghai Major, finishing 0-3 in the Opening Stage with losses to paiN, FURIA, and Complexity, was a significant setback.
Fans won’t have to wait long to see chayJESUS in action for Imperial. He’s set to debut later this Thursday in the Round of 16 of CCT Season 2 South America Series 6 against Bad News Chickens.
Imperial’s current roster now consists of:
- Vinicius “VINI” Figueiredo
- Lucas “decenty” Bacelar
- Kaiky “noway” Santos
- Santino “try” Rigal
- Richard “chayJESUS” Seidy
- Rafael “zakk” Fernandes (coach)
