loWel is a well-known face in the Counter-Strike scene, having competed for the likes of mousesports, HellRaisers, and DIGNITAS. His most recent stint came with Spanish squad Movistar Riders.
In his interview with Heretics, loWel revealed that although he thinks CSGO and Valorant are very similar, but he still has a way to go. The biggest challenge for him are the abilities of the agents.
pAura is a player still trying to make a name for himself and although Team Inferno failed to deliver, the Turkish player still cemented himself as one of the best Cyphers Europe has to offer.
Apart from the two player acquisitions, Heretics also announced the signing Alejandro “Black” García as a brand ambassador and content creator. Best known for his CSGO streams, the Spaniard has recently made the switch to Valorant.
The organization has yet to announce the rest of its roster, but
rumors suggest
that loWel will be joined by another of theirs former Inferno teammate, Dustyn “nieSoW” Durnas.
