Report: NRG sign Tarik to replace FugLy

According to a report by VPEsports, Tarik ‘tarik’ Celik, who is currently a free agent, is set to replace Jacob ‘FugLy’.

Tarik has had a miserable 2018 after winning the major with Cloud9, with a potential game changing move to MIBR not going to plan, with mediocre performances leading him to being relegated to the bench, before being replaced by Taco to form an all Brazilian team.

NRG, on the other hand, had an impressive showing in the Challengers stage by qualifying comfortably, but since then they were beaten in all 3 games to be the first team to crash out of the Legends stage. Although not the weakest at least in terms of stats, FugLy seemed like the only player they could replace, with awper ceRq and IGL daps being an essential part of the core.

With tarik, NRG will have at their disposal an explosive rifler who has also had some experience in leading the team, and his loose style of calling can be something the team can look at when they are struggling to put rounds on the board.
