Whilst Latvian CS:GO players, such as “YEKINDAR” and “broky”, are known to be talented individuals who can more than carry their own weight, even in some of the biggest CS:GO teams within the scene, it has been nearly 10 years since a designated Latvian roster has been a thing in the world of professional CS:GO. This changes now thanks to Wolsung and their recent agreement with entertainment and gaming brand Spēlēt.lv. They have just announced their full Latvian roster.

We are proud to announce that today we are starting a partnership with @SpeletGaming!
This will allow us to fully focus on our dream and hopefully, we will not let our Latvian fans down. #WolsungArmy ?? pic.twitter.com/YQD2XdAl8T— wolsung (@wolsungCS) May 1, 2022
Perhaps the most exciting player to follow as Wolsung seeks to penetrate the competitive CS:GO scene, Roberts “shield” Tipsis. At the young age of only 19 years, the Latvian talent has already been praised by players such as his fellow countryman “YEKINDAR“. To lead the new-look Wolsung roster as the team’s IGL is 24-year-old Reinis “hyskeee” Grīnbergs and if you ask him, Wolsung has what it takes to become a top-30 team:
“I truly believe we have all the pieces in our roster to achieve our goal – top 30 HLTV and ESEA Conference League, after that, we just need to keep grinding and get the necessary experience to take us to the next level.”
The all-Latvian roster looks as follows:
{cflag:LV} Reinis “hyskeee” Grīnbergs
{cflag:LV} Roberts “shield” Tipsis
{cflag:LV} Kristers “keen” Dārznieks
{cflag:LV} Daniēls “discplex” Bieziņš
{cflag:LV} Krists “msn” Kalniņš
{cflag:LV} Miks “Independent” Siliņš (Coach)
