CLG parts ways with Subroza

Counter-Logic Gaming has revealed that Yassine "Subroza" Taoufik has decided to step down from the team.

In August of last year Counter-Logic Gaming brought on-board one of the up-and-coming talents in the North American scene alongside Ethan "nahtE" Arnold, Yassine "Subroza" Taoufik, who has in the past made headlines for numerous cheating accusations made against him due to his incredible fragging in pick-ups and scrims.

Now CLG has revealed that Subroza will be leaving the roster today, leaving the North American squad down to just four players. According to the team's management, the move was relatively sudden following the player's decision to return home due to undisclosed personal reasons just days prior.

While Counter-Logic Gaming searchs for a permanent replacement, the team has opted to bring in former in-game leader James "hazed" Cobb, who will play for the team effective immediately. Read a portion of CLG's statement on the changes below:

Today we are announcing that Yassine “Subroza” Taoufik has decided to step down from the Counter Logic Gaming CS:GO roster. Subroza has been with the team for a little over six months now and has worked incredibly hard to get to where is today. When Subroza first joined the team alongside nahtE, we weren’t sure what to expect. In the time he has been on the team, we’ve learned that he is a great teammate, selfless, and always willing to learn. Unfortunately, a few days ago he notified the team that he would like to step down and return home for personal reasons.

CLG's starting lineup for now is:

James "hazed" Cobb

Stephen "reltuC" Cutler

Kenneth "koosta" Suen

Ethan "nahtE" Arnold

Pujan "FNS" Mehta
