TACO Hints at Return to Competitive Counter Strike

A Beacon of Hope for Brazilian CS2?

Brazilian Counter-Strike legend Epitacio “⁠TACO⁠” de Melo has confirmed that he is making a comeback to professional Counter-Strike once again having competed for lesser-known Brazilian sides earlier this year.

TACO is one of the most iconic players to come out of Brazil. The best years of Brazilian CS can be attributed to the legendary SK Gaming and Luminosity roster that won ESL One Cologne and MLG Columbus back in the day. TACO was a gel that glued together the Brazilian side but the end of the CSGO era saw TACO fall out of flavor as the entire Brazilian CS scene went downhill which hasn’t recovered after more than a year into CS2.

Being a region that once produced some of the best talents, there is hardly anyone from Brazil in the top teams. Good performances from Brazilian sides are few and far between and TACO is not afraid to call out his countrymen on this.

“I don’t have Twitter to curse anymore, but count on me to end this culture of loser failure that was implemented in CS BR. News soon. In other words, the most loyal and bloodthirsty soldier in CS BR is coming back. That’s the message,” said TACO.

If this is anything to go by, TACO is likely making a return to professional CS and he suggests that his arrival would rejuvenate the teams and bring back the competitiveness that he believes has been missing for a long time.
