EYEBALLERS official statement: 25-year-old rifler dex has been relegated to the bench.

Swedish CS2 team EYEBALLERS announced on Sunday that Sebastian Samuelsson (ID: dex) has been officially relegated to the bench. Anton Allewein (ID: dottie) will temporarily fill dex's position until further notice.

According to the schedule, Dottie made his debut for the Eyeballers in the United 21 Season 58 that day.

The 25-year-old dex primarily plays as a rifler and joined EYEBALLERS from Lilmix in October 2024. To date, he has played 546 maps for EYEBALLERS, with an average rating of 0.99. His best result was a 5th-8th place finish with the team at the PGL Bucharest tournament in April.

However, EYEBALLERS' recent performance has been consistently poor. Over the past three months, their win rate has dropped to 38.9%, and their VRS world ranking has fallen to 64th. After failing to qualify for the PGL Singapore Major, EYEBALLERS finally decided to adjust their current roster.

In a statement, EYEBALLERS CEO Axel Frieden (ID: Acke47) explained: "This is definitely not a pleasant decision, nor is it a denial of his personal performance. However, we believe that some changes must be made to allow us to take the next step in our journey ahead. The past year has been significant for EYEBALLERS, and Sebastian has undoubtedly been a key figure in it. He has played an important role both on and off the field."

"No matter what happens in the future, I will always support Sebastian. We have had a great time together, and I look forward to continuing to cheer for him in the future."

Dex himself said, "After two unforgettable years, my time with Eyeballers is coming to an end."

"We have been through countless ups and downs together, creating memories that I will cherish forever, and walking side by side on a journey that I am grateful for."

"Due to internal adjustments within the team, I have been relegated to the bench. Now, I can explore other opportunities."

"I sincerely thank everyone who has supported me along the way, as well as the entire team behind the scenes. You have made my two years with Eyeballers so special."

"That being said, my career journey is far from over. I remain eager, motivated, and fully prepared to prove myself again. I can't wait to take on the next challenge."

Following this adjustment, the current roster of EYEBALLERS is tentatively set as follows:

Sniper: Jesper Wexel (ID: JW)

Rifleman: Kaller Johansson (ID: Ro1f)

Rifleman: Max Jansson (ID: maxster)

Rifleman: Freddie Johansson (ID: KRIMZ)

Rifleman: Anton Allewayne (ID: dottie)

Coach: Farooq Pita (ID: pita)
