Last week, the Czech AWPer, oskar, announced that he was no longer a part of the TITANS roster after contractual agreements were not being met. The organization reportedly hadn’t paid oskar and some of his other teammates' full salary and bootcamp expenses, which made the Czech AWPer hit out at the organization.

In a recent interview with Sazka Esport, oskar went into more specific details about what was wrong with the organization, indicating that a lot of things did not work out from the beginning.

“They promised us that they would pay, but I waited four months for the first salary. When they sent the money, they promised more, but then nothing came, so I only received one and a half salary for those 9 months.”

The thing that oskar regrets the most is that he didn’t ask his former colleagues from his days in mousesports more about the organization before joining them, stating that no one told him about the difficulties.

“SuNny and lmbt have been writing to me throughout my time in SINNERS asking me to play with them. Then I succumbed to it. During the time that they wrote to me, they never once wrote to me that there were any problems with money. If they let me know, then I could have a clear signal to stay away from it.”

But it wasn’t just about the conditions regarding the salaries, it also didn’t work for the team in terms of their gameplay either, as the results showed.

Despite all this happening, the Czech AWPer isn’t heading for retirement anytime soon and in 2023 we will see him wearing the SINNERS jersey once again.

TITANS

Magnus “Nodios” Olsen isn’t the only player who has had a bad experience with the Swiss organization, TITANS, who reportedly haven’t paid some of their player's full salary and bootcamp expenses. The Czech AWPer, Tomáš "⁠oskar⁠" Šťastný, who also was a part of the TITANS roster has now taken some shots at the organization through his Twitter. In his statement, oskar revealed that the decision for his departure came after contractual agreements were not being met.

“Happy to say that today is the day I am finally out of the Titans show. The decision was made since the contractual agreements were not met and I am looking forward to my new journey. What a wasted year for me once again.” – oskar wrote on Twitter.

The TITANS CS:GO team made their way into the Counter-Strike scene back in August, with MSL, Nodios, oskar, supra, and suNny on the roster. Their results never became good and in the start of Oktober this year, Nodios announced his departure before MSL’s contract with the Swiss organization expired.

It’s yet unknown whether supra and suNny are still under contract with the organization.

Those are the players who are believed to be under contract with the team still:

Tomáš "oskar" Šťastný is still going strong at the age of 31 in CS:GO. Currently, the former mousesports' star is playing on TITANS, where he has teamed up with notable names such as Miikka 'suNny' Kemppi and Mathias 'MSL' Lauridsen.

Against his fellow Czech countrymen from ECLOT, oskar managed to make an impressive four kills with his AWP on the defense of Dust2. In the end, it was not enough for TITANS, who ended up losing the match. As a consolation prize, oskar takes home our Pley of the Day for his beautiful play.

A mix of experience and talent are the key components of the new TITANS roster, that were announced last night on Twitter.

27-year-old Mathias "⁠MSL⁠" Lauridsen will be leading the new teams as the in-game leader, while the two former MOUZ players, Tomáš "⁠oskar⁠" Šťastný and Miikka "⁠suNny⁠" Kemppi join the Dane on the new team. The three experienced players will be assisted by the Ukrainian coach Sergey "⁠lmbt⁠" Bezhanov, while Estonian Anton "⁠supra⁠" Tšernobai and the 23-year-old Dane Magnus "⁠Nodios⁠" Olsen is the two youngest players on the team with the latter having played for Copenhagen Flames two times earlier in his career.

The team has been playing matches and practices together for some while and is now ready to try and establish themselves as a top-tier CS:GO team according to a press release.

The profiled AWPer Tomáš “oskar” Šťastný will no longer represent Sinners going into 2022, the organization confirms this Wednesday. The 30-year-old veteran leaves the Czech side after an impressive individually 13-month spell, following his arrival from Sprout back in December 2020.

- After a little over a year, we're saying goodbye to the goat himself, oskar. It's been an incredible ride and we're so happy that you were a part of it. We wish you nothing but the best in your next endeavours. Once a SINNER, always a SINNER! Thank you for everything, oskar – Sinners state on [link:{"url":"https://www.instagram.com/sinnersesports/","isNewTab":true,"text":"Instagram"}].

Following the news about the departure of the former mousesports profile, Sinners has announced the youngster David "forsyy" Bílý as the replacement. The 20-year-old AWPer joins the roster after having played for Enterprise.

oskar and the rest of Sinners after their winning Mistrovství ČR 2021 in November

The Czechs from Sinners are currently competing at ESL Pro League Season 14, which is by far their biggest tournament yet. Sinners have been placed in Group B alongside top-tier teams like OG, Virtus.pro, Complexity and G2, where they most surprisingly managed to upset the Kovac cousins in the first round. The stand-out player for the team is the former mousesports star Tomáš "⁠oskar⁠" Šťastný who still swings the AWP to perfection, despite having turned 30 years old. 

During yesterday's matchup against OG, oskar were able to turn a tough 1v3 situation on Inferno against three fierce CT players into a round win. 

[slugORMA:{"slug":"og-qualifies-playoffs-after-marathon-match","isNewTab":true}]

With everything still on the line for all teams in Group B at ESL Pro League, it was a much anticipated Wednesday, that got kickstarted by OG and SinnerS.

Czech team SinnerS was tasked with the tough job of delivering the first blow to OG in the tournament, to maintain their chances of advancing to the playoffs. SinnerS started with a bang against G2 and delivered a very surprising upset on Day 1. But since then Tomáš "oskar" Šťastný and his promising roster ran into two straight defeats to put them in danger of elimination.

[slugORMA:{"slug":"virtus-pro-grab-first-win-esl-pro-league-s14","isNewTab":true}]

SinnerS showed right away on Nuke, that they had understood their situation very well. With both Tomáš 'oskar' Šťastný and Adam 'NEOFRAG' Zouhar in fine form, the Czech's forced the map into overtime, where they eventually took home the victory.

Inferno was OG's map pick. Here it was again SinnerS with a promising start, but in the second half, OG finally got activated and stormed through the defense of SinnerS, who lost 10-1 after the break. 

A long tech break delayed the suspense even further before the third and final map. Mirage was the setting. Here SinnerS took the lead once again. But they suddenly lost all momentum at 6-3 up after OG managed to steal a round with some nice and crisp Deagle shots. 6-3 was converted to 6-9, giving OG a perfect push before the last half of the four-hour marathon match.

OG continued to dominate their opponents after the break. The best thing about it for OG was the fact, that it was the entire team, that put up a fight. It ended one-sided with a 16-7 victory, which puts OG through to the playoffs, and leaves SinnerS with small hope of advancement. They will have to wait until the two other matches tonight to know their fate.

Tier-one CS:GO is back with ESL Pro League Season 14 and we are finally able to see just how the teams have improved and bettered themselves throughout the player break. Group A concluded with the favorites in Heroic and Vitality on top and the first Bo3-series in Group B was set to be between G2 and Sinners. Whilst the heavy favorites to win the first game of Group B were undoubtedly G2, it wasn’t as easy for the European giants as one would imagine. As a matter of fact, it was the Sinners roster to start the series the strongest after winning their own map pick of Vertigo. G2 retaliated with a victory on Inferno and the Bo3-series headed to a third and final map to decide the winner. The deciding map was Mirage and coming flying out of the gate were the Sinners roster. Having seemingly stunned the G2 roster from early the game quickly fell out of the hands of G2. A dominating performance on Mirage saw Sinners take home the first three points of Group B and start their journey in ESL Pro League better than one would have thought.

The first map was the pick of Sinners. Luckily for the side of Sinners, the G2 roster left open Vertigo as a possibility, and with a win rate of only 29% (7) in the past three months that may have been a mistake. Sinners have managed to win 71% of their official games (17 games) on Vertigo and once again they looked strong on the map. “NiKo” tried his absolute best to lead by example and topped the scoreboard from the G2 side. However, it wasn’t “NiKo” that was the star of the show on Vertigo. Sinners player “NEOFRAG” carried his team on his back with an exceptional performance. Sinners and “NEOFRAG” were ultimately too strong on Vertigo for G2 to handle and at the scoreline of 16-11, the underdogs were one step closer to making a huge upset.

The second map of the series was G2’s map pick. Just as Vertigo was for the Sinners roster, Inferno was an easy pick for G2. In the past three months, they have managed a 75% win rate (12 games), whereas the Sinners roster is sitting on a win rate of only 43% (7 games). As expected and intended it was the Kovač’s in “NiKo” and “huNter-“ to put on the pressure from the G2 roster. Despite a valid attempt on Inferno from Sinners, they would have to see themselves outmatched on the second map of the series. G2 closed out the game at the scoreline of 16-10 and forced a third and final map in the Bo3-series.

The third and final map was set to be played on Mirage, a map known for its open spaces and upset potential. The open space of Mirage allows for many individual plays, and it isn’t always the most strategical plays that are the most efficient in getting rounds on the board. Perhaps surprisingly with the star power of the G2 roster, it was Sinners to come flying out of the gate. With an impressive CT-sided half they managed to create an 11-4 lead going into the second half of Mirage. The second half saw G2 string together a handful of rounds, however, the damage had already been done. At the scoreline of 16-9, it was the Sinners roster to walk away from the Bo3-series with three points after defeating the heavy favorites of G2.

The Czech AWP'er has featured multiple times on our Pley of the Day list, and once again he has found his way to the list.

On Mirage the sniper was under pressure to deliver, but with his 85th clutch of 2021 he managed to win another round for SinnerS in the match against Sprout.

Just like incredible aces and spectacular multi-kills is enjoyable for the viewers of Counter-Strike, so are the funny fails and misplays that sometimes occur. From "s1mple" failing a knife kill to G2 forgetting that the bomb is planted at B, there are many instances that are just too funny not to laugh at. Yesterday another misplay can be added to the list. 

Sinners faced the side of eSuba and dominated them on Mirage. At the scoreline of 15-6, they managed to kill all five t-sided players and were only left with a bomb to defuse. With plenty of time to spare it seemed as if nothing could go wrong. However, Jindřich "ZEDKO" Chyba was a little too happy with the victory and threw a grenade at his defusing teammate. Tomáš "oskar" Šťastný rushed to the bomb at began defusing, however, it was too late. 

Take a look at the extremely funny and stupid misplay from Sinners down below:

FURIA had hoped to make a quick process against the Czech roster from SinnerS at Spring Sweet Spring.

The Brazilians had been seeded into the Quarter-Finals at the tournament, where SinnerS waited. The Czech's have been one of the positive surprises of 2021 climbing to a spot among the top 30 teams in the world.

[slugRMA:forze-eliminates-team-spirit-spring-sweet-spring]

On Inferno SinnerS had a difficult time. The aggressiveness from Andrei 'arT' Piovezan was a constant annoyance for SinnerS, who could never really get anything going due to a broken economy throughout the map.

Vertigo was a much better suit for the Czech's. It started badly though. FURIA quickly made it 7-2 before Tomáš 'oskar' Šťastný and company started to heat up. Especially Max 'SHOCK' Kvapil was lethal for SinnerS. The rifler found himself in a shootout with Furia's Yuri 'yuurih' Santos with both of them averaging above 100 damage per round. SinnerS won Vertigo 16-12 after a solid performance.

FURIA wrapped up the series 2-1 on the decider of Mirage, where arT once again was the most impactful player on the server. The 25-year-old Brazilian delivered 23 frags and a 1.80 Rating to help his team advance to the semi-final.

SKADE

Sinners' star player Tomáš "oskar" Šťastný proves time after time that he's still a very potent and lethal AWPer. In a match against BLINK, the experienced CS:GO veteran turned into an unstoppable force, who couldn't die even though being down 1v4. 

This Monday will present the start of two new events with both LOOT.BET Season 9 Closed Qualifier and Spring Sweet Spring being ready to kick off. 

The much-awaited playoff stage at Funspark ULTI Europe is ready to commence! 

The first quarterfinal matchup at the profiled event will be between Sinners and the strong Germans from Sprout. The winner of the match secures a spot in the semifinal, while the loser must head home empty-handed.

Watch the match on the following stream: 

Sprout

The experienced gamer Thomas “oskar” Stastny isn't new on the Counter-Strike scene, he has been playing professionally since 2006. So he has been in competitive counter-strike since they shifted over to CS: GO. 

The Czech Republic AWPer signed with Sinners in December last year and looks to be a match made in heaven. Throughout his career oskar has been surfing around different teams, but maybe oskar finally has found his perfect match.

Watch the clip of oskar going wild here:

Tomás “oskar” Stastný is the man behind our Pley of the Day!

Yesterday it was his teammate Jindrich “ZEDKO” Chyba who delivered the Play of the Day by completing the Ace against Anonymo in Snow Sweet Snow 3.

The Czech Republican AWPer was the first player from his country to attend the Valve Major and has been among the elite players for a few years. Back in 2018 he was ranked as the 14th best player in the world by HLTV.

Sprout is favorites as they met forZe, both teams have things to prove to their fans after they both lost their last two matches.

The newly acquired German slaxz- has been in great form, and will be a player to keep an eye on in the game.

Watch the game between forZe and Sprout here:

Sinners are small favorites in the match against Dignitas as they have been in great form in the last couple of games, but the game is difficult to predict because the teams are so evenly matched.

Their will be two players with a key role for Sinners in the game, it´s the duo NEOFRAG and the new member of the team oskar, the two have been consistently playing on a high level lately.

Team Dignitas

In December last year, the profiled AWPer Tomáš ”oskar” Šťastný decided to head home to the Czech Republic, by joining the lower-ranked team called Sinners. A transfer which has proven to be quite the success, as the former mousesports player alongside the promising player Adam “NEOFRAG” Zouhar has made Sinners a competent top 30 team. 

And at the ongoing event of Snow Sweet Snow 2, oskar and Sinners have continued their impressive levels, with especially the 29-year old veteran putting in the numbers with him averaging a staggering 1.45 Rating. Something, the Trident roster got to experience today in their Group Stage match against Sinners, which ended in a confident 2-0 victory.

TRIDENT

The Czech team SinnerS has got a good start to 2021. The roster consists of only Czech players, with young talents as Adam "NEOFRAG" Zouhar on the roster. Their biggest attraction is without a doubt the former mousesports player, Tomáš "oskar" Šťastný, who a couple of years back was considered a top 20 player in the world.

The 29-year-old Czech joined the team in December, and since then their rise on the world rankings has been notable. From 70th place to number 24 in the world within three months is impressive.

So is gameplay from the AWP player. Check you this clip from Snow Sweet Snow, where Tomáš "oskar" Šťastný is rated as the third-best player in the tournament after the two first rounds.
