MAJ3R Eternal Fire Return Rumors in CS:GO

Engin "MAJ3R" Küpeli, the former in-game leader (IGL) and player for Space Soldiers and Sangal Esports, may return to the CS:GO esports scene with a Turkish team, according to newly leaked information circulating in esports circles. We've compiled some of the leaked details for you into a news roundup. Here are the details of the reports about MAJ3R and our take on them!

Is MAJ3R Returning to CS:GO? Who Will Be Eternal Fire's Fifth Player?

Who Is MAJ3R?

Born on January 25, 1991, Engin Küpeli has been actively involved in Counter-Strike since 2006. He moved to the new version of Counter-Strike, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, in 2013 and began his new gaming career under Imaginary Gaming. Engin, who was with Sangal Esports until October 2021, ended his CS career, stating he was looking for new opportunities, and began a VALORANT career. The team, formerly Sangal Esports' CS roster, moved to VALORANT and signed with Digital Athletics. Today, an announcement revealed that Digital Athletics has parted ways with its VALORANT roster. The players have ended their VALORANT careers.

Which Team Will MAJ3R Join?

Following Calyx's recent departure from Eternal Fire, some rumors began circulating on Twitter. Eternal Fire, a team that has changed its IGL almost monthly due to a lack of one, was reported to be looking for an experienced IGL for the team now that a spot had opened up. That IGL, like most fans, immediately came to our minds too: none other than MAJ3R, the former Space Soldiers player who was teammates with XANTARES. According to most Twitter accounts, MAJ3R was seen and tried out on Eternal Fire's practice servers. An official announcement from the team could come soon. Since the team needs to settle before the upcoming ESL Pro League matches, we're almost certain this decision won't be delayed.

Why Did Calyx Leave Eternal Fire?

A bombshell hit the Turkish CS esports scene recently. That news was none other than Calyx leaving Eternal Fire. Calyx, who drew criticism a few months earlier for voluntarily moving to the inactive roster, has this time parted ways with the team by mutual agreement. His statement reads as follows:

"Hi everyone, As you all know, my time with Eternal Fire has come to an end. In a short period we worked hard and achieved great results, reaching the top 20 and going through a great run at the Major and EPL. As for the reason for leaving the team; because of the IGL issues we've had, the team felt it needed a change. I respect this decision and wish my former teammates success. Thanks to everyone on the team for the time we spent together. I'll continue my career as a free agent, and during this time I'm planning to play FPL and start streaming. I'd also like to thank everyone who sent me kind messages and supported me."

We wish him success in the CS:GO arena and want to remind him that we have no doubt he'll once again represent Türkiye with success. #ForEF
