ENCE's CS2 main roster is entering a new age as we bid farewell to Kylar and welcome xKacpersky and Neityu to the team.
The ENCE CS2 roster is undergoing significant changes as we seek to regain our competitive edge after a difficult 2024. Today, we announce the removal of Kacper "Kylar" Walukiewicz from our active lineup and the addition of two young, hungry talents — Kacper "xKacpersky" Gabara and Ryan "Neityu" Aubry.
Our General Manager, Niklas "Willkey" Ojalainen, discusses the recent changes to the team: “Following Goofy's departure, we decided to make another change to the team, and that is Kylar's benching.
First of all, I want to thank Kylar for this time with us. Kylar has great potential, which he showed at the beginning of the year. Kylar can be a really good player in the right environment, and I hope he can soon find a team that suits his skill set.
Now, the two new faces and the previous addition of a new head coach give the team much-needed fresh energy.”
xKacpersky: Rising talent from Young Ninjas
Kacper "xKacpersky" Gabara, a 17-year-old from Poland, has quickly risen as one of CS2's most promising up-and-coming talents. Known for his fearless, aggressive, and proactive playstyle, xKacpersky thrives as an entry fragger, taking space with high-risk, high-reward plays. Joining ENCE after beginning his professional career in Young Ninjas, he is hungry to make his mark in the Tier 1 scene: “I have followed ENCE ever since dycha joined in 2021. Now I’m here, and it feels really nice. I don’t feel any pressure, but I hope we can get some achievements under our belts and qualify for a Major.”

Neityu: France’s lurking promise
Starting his career in 2021 in French mix teams before he joined MOUZ NXT, Ryan "Neityu" Aubry’s talent went relatively under the radar despite his undeniable raw talent. Neityu’s public breakthrough came after receiving high praise from prominent players in the scene. A versatile player, Neityu is able to adapt to the team’s needs, taking the roles of an anchor and a lurker. “It feels a bit surreal to join ENCE; years ago, I couldn’t have imagined this. I’m super glad to compete in this organization and with these players.” Looking ahead, he’s determined to grind step by step, aiming to play in Tier 1 events, qualify for Majors, and become the best version of himself while achieving his team's goals.
“Both xKacpersky and Neityu are young and relatively inexperienced players, but they possess immense potential. They are true grinders, eager to play, learn, and improve every day. Despite having less experience, they don’t shy away from responsibility and are willing to take matters into their own hands. They bring a fresh energy and drive to the team.”
