Cloud9 has announced that Sean "sg@res" Gares has decided to step down as a player and in-game leader for the team.
“My time as a player for Cloud9 has brought countless memories and experiences that I'll cherish for a lifetime. Not only did I get an opportunity to travel the world doing something I love, but I was blessed to do it with all great people; people I'm proud to call my friends.
Regardless of who takes my spot, I truly wish the best for the team. I'm certain that the team's persistent hard work will pay off and that Cloud9 CS:GO will be a prominent force in 2016.
Thank you to all of my teammates, fans, and Cloud9 management for all of the love and support over the years. I will forever be grateful of this journey!”

I have literally no idea who could replace him legit.
And is not banned =))))))

Pronax.
( He speaks english, he was a succesful IGL and he is one of the best players on the markt. Moving to the USA might be also a pull factor for him, he wanted new opportunities )

Actually pronax would be ridiculously good, he is both good at strategy, and can give players freedom. ´Too bad he is resting atm tho, I bet C9 wanna get at it right away

They're not in a rush because they want to see if swag gets unbanned in january, unless they have inside info on it which I doubt. Get_right is, or was, also a prospect, from what I heard. But regardless of who their new 5th is that team will still have issues imo.

They're not gonna pick up an igl. Sean's probably going to be their coach/igl so they're just going to pick up an up and coming fragger they can teach or someone with experience who can consistently frag.

i`d love to see an other six man team succeed
|
Damn, I really liked Sean. He seems like such a genuinely nice guy, great professional attitude toward the game.

I have a feeling we'll see one of those two in January: - C9 gets an awesome 5th, and proceed to get back on track as a team that could reach the top (or at least knock at the door like this summer) - C9 implodes, or rather continues with a 5th but doesn't post results.

He's the second cutest IGL also (pronax can't be dethroned).

They're waiting if swag gets unbanned is also my guess. Gotta be very interesting weeks.:-D

Is there some fresh blood in NA that could be good instead of rotating old players? Might be something that they need.

They are waiting for GTR to be out from under his contract, and/or for Valve to do an about face on the match fixing bans.
