In a rather sad turn of events, Richard “shox” Papillon and his team from Nakama will miss out on the upcoming Paris Major in their home country after losing to Janusz “Snax” Pogorzelski and his Let us cook squad in the BLAST Paris Major Europe RMR Open Qualifier.
The legendary Frenchman and his team were considered strong contenders for the upcoming Major, but their hopes were dashed after a close match against Let us cook. Despite a valiant effort from Nakama, Snax and his team managed to secure a 16-12 victory, thus eliminating Nakama from the tournament.
This news has made a lot of French CS:GO fans sad, as many hoped that he would lead his team to a successful run in the Paris Major. His absence from the Major in his home country will undoubtedly be felt.
