Kenny “kennyS” Schrub is making his return to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive action with the Saudi Arabia-based Team Falcons.
The 27-year-old French AWPer has been an inactive member of G2 Esports since March 2021.
“A few months ago, I decided that I really wanted to play CS competitively,” kennyS told Dexerto on Tuesday. “I waited a little bit to see if it was just a feeling, an emotion, and I concluded that it was not. I am really stable in my life and well-surrounded.
“I think I deserve one last chance to finish my career in a way that is not being on the bench. I’m grateful I have the opportunity to do things differently. It feels amazing to be back. I’m really happy.”
Team Falcons and G2 Esports both confirmed the transition on social media Tuesday.
