FUT Esports has officially stepped into the competitive Counter-Strike scene by signing a French-speaking roster headlined by experienced player Audric “JACKZ” Jug and Nabil “Nivera” Benrlitom. The Turkish esports organization, already active in multiple games, aims to carve out a presence in Counter-Strike with this seasoned lineup.
Overview of FUT Esports’ Counter-Strike Roster
The newly announced FUT roster includes a mix of experienced and relatively lesser-known players. The key players are:
- Audric “JACKZ” Jug: A respected figure in Counter-Strike, JACKZ recently played with GenOne and briefly with Ninjas in Pyjamas. Known primarily for his impactful rifle skills and veteran leadership, his inclusion is seen as a strong foundational piece for FUT.
- Nabil “Nivera” Benrlitom: Returning to CS after an underwhelming period since mid-2024, Nivera previously showcased promise during his time with teams like Vitality and Liquid. His performance with FUT will be crucial to revitalizing his competitive reputation.
- Kévin “misutaaa” Rabier: Once a key part of Vitality, misutaaa has since played for Falcons, 9INE, and Into the Breach. His consistency at the highest level remains uncertain, making this new opportunity with FUT critical for his career.
- David “devoduvek” Dobrosavljevic: A seasoned rifler with experience across various mid-tier European teams, devoduvek brings stability and tactical awareness to the lineup.
- Etienne “drac” Salaün: A younger, less established player, drac represents a future investment who may flourish under veteran guidance.
Additionally, Adil “ScreaM” Benrlitom joins as the sixth player and content creator. Known for his popularity and past competitive achievements, ScreaM will focus initially on content creation while exploring a competitive return.
François-Xavier “falco” Collinet, a recognized coach within the French scene, will guide the team strategically.
Early Performance and Expectations
Prior to joining FUT, the roster competed as “Mousquetaires,” finishing second in United21 League Season 31 and currently holding Valve ranking position #193.
