🇵🇹 SAW have announced that they have completed the signing of a brand new roster featuring the core of its lineup that reached the semi-finals of IEM Cologne 2024, confirming a June 30 report from HLTV.
The lineup that SAW have fielded since selling their core to BC.Game will remain with the organization under the name SAW Youngsters, with head coach Tiago "mowzassa" Rodrigues and assistant Tiago "SYDOX" Fonseca transitioning to the main roster.
SAW are now:
🇵🇹 Christopher "MUTiRiS" Fernandes

🇷🇺 Aurora have announced that they have completed the signing of Jimi "Jimpphat" Salo, who embarks on a new challenge after over four years with MOUZ.
The Finnish player has been inactive since April, when MOUZ decided to shake things up in the lead-up to the IEM Cologne Major by making a double change.
Jimpphat's signing comes as part of an international pivot for Aurora, who have benched Caner "soulfly" Kesici and parted ways with IGL Engin "MAJ3R" Küpeli and head coach Sezgin "Fabre" Kalaycı in the off-season.
Aurora are now:
🇹🇷 Ismailcan "XANTARES" Dörtkardeş
🇹🇷 Özgür "woxic" Eker
🇹🇷 Ali "Wicadia" Haydar Yalçın
🇫🇮 Jimi "Jimpphat" Salo
🇬🇧 Ashley "ash" Battye (coach)
In a Telegram post, 🇷🇺 BetBoom CEO Artem "Pioneer" Saveliev shut down the possibility of his organization signing Timur "FL4MUS" Marev on a permanent deal from Virtus.pro.
"The most common question we get: 'When are you buying Flamus?'" he wrote. "My answer: not this year. "Signing a player is always a complex decision — roles, map positions, individual skill, personal qualities, mentality, synergy with the rest of the team, and of course the buyout fee. "The coaching staff tries to fully assess what a signing gives us now and over the long run. And at this point, buying Timur doesn't seem like an obvious option for us."
🇷🇺 Aurora have announced the signing of Ashley "ash" Battye, bringing the former GamerLegion coach on board following the recent departure of Sezgin "Fabre" Kalaycı.
The move represents the first addition in Aurora's ongoing rebuild, which has also featured long-standing IGL Engin "MAJ3R" Küpeli stepping down and the benching of Caner "soulfly" Kesici.
In Aurora, ash will have the opportunity to coach a squad with a considerable pool of talent already at its disposal, with two more players yet to be added. The expectation is that Aurora will bring in two international players to round out its roster.
Aurora are now:
🇹🇷 Ismailcan "XANTARES" Dörtkardeş
🇹🇷 Özgür "woxic" Eker
🇹🇷 Ali "Wicadia" Haydar Yalçın
🇬🇧 Ashley "ash" Battye (coach)
