After nearly four months without a squad, Elevate seems ready to return with a team from Brazil.


Elevate's first contracts



According to a report from Dust2.com.br, the Elevate organization is preparing to return to the Counter-Strike arena with a Brazilian squad. 


They are said to have signed three players and a coach.


The first contracts include:


Diogo "⁠diozera⁠" Oliveira Nunes from MIBR Academy.
Gabriel "⁠lash⁠" Sampaio, AWP-er from Yawara.
Sandro "⁠skr⁠" Kakeru from the non-organizational team Bad News Chickens.
In addition, Elevate has added Lucas "⁠zander⁠" Carvalho as a coach. Zander has experience leading many teams in both North and South America over the past two years.

History and new direction of Elevate
Elevate's most recent roster is an American team, including the following players:

Wyatt "⁠snav⁠" Phillippi
Deni "⁠dea⁠" Ediev
Derek "⁠dare⁠" Brown
These three players are still playing together under the name Timbermen. The team had a notable achievement when qualifying for the PGL Major Copenhagen Americas RMR, but Elevate decided to disband the team after not being able to win tickets to Perfect World Shanghai Major Americas RMR at the end of August.

Rebuilding the squad in Brazil is not new to Elevate. Previously, this organization owned two different Brazilian teams in the 2021-2022 period.

Elevate's expected lineup:
Diogo "⁠diozera⁠" Oliveira Nunes (Brazil)
Gabriel "⁠lash⁠" Sampaio (Brazil)
Sandro "⁠skr⁠" Kakeru (Brazil)
Lucas "⁠zander⁠" Carvalho (Coach, Portugal)
