With Virtus.pro benching Jame and n0rb3r7 and signing FL4MUS, all that was needed to round out their new roster was an AWPer.
That AWPer has been found, and he comes in the form of the now former Cloud9 player, ICY.
Although there was reports of Virtus.pro being after multiple targets, ICY arrives with a solid reputation, especially after a confident showing during the entire Perfect World Shanghai Major major cycle.
ICY arrives after spending just five months with Cloud9, which is fast even by Cloud9's standard.
One of the marquee signings of Cloud9's most recent roster rebuild he departs after recording a 1.13 rating since joining.
ICY's run on Cloud9 wasn't easy, with the team lacking points to earn themselves invites to top events, however, he still managed to be one of the highest performing AWPers from the region.
The Kazakh AWPer originally became a hot property earlier in the year following a solid RMR performance that saw AMKAL qualify for the first CS2 Major, the PGL Major Copenhagen.
However, ICY's time in Copenhagen was cut very short, AMKAL were eliminated from the Opening Stage with a 0-3 record.
ICY arrives on Virtus,pro with big shoes to fill, taking over from Jame as the team's sniper.
The final piece in their rebuild, his arrival means that electroNic will now be presumed to the the in-game leader, a role he hasn't done since Boombl4 joined Cloud9 late last year.
