Polish Counter-Strike 2 veteran Janusz `Snax` Pogorzelski has officially concluded his tenure with G2 Esports` roster. The seasoned player, who notably stood in for the team during a successful period earlier this year, announced his departure via a public message, reflecting on his time and offering personal thanks to his former teammates.
Snax`s time with G2, while not a permanent fixture of the main roster, was significant. He notably joined the squad as a stand-in and contributed to their impressive victory at IEM Katowice 2024, showcasing his enduring skill and tactical depth.
Following the news of his departure, Snax took to social media platform X to share his thoughts. His message provided insight into his mindset during his time with the team and his perspective on the future. He described each roster he joins as feeling like a “last dance,” indicating his commitment to giving his all in every opportunity.
With characteristic self-awareness and a touch of humility, Snax remarked:
He then proceeded to thank his teammates individually, highlighting specific qualities he appreciated:
- To NiKo: Praising his “insane work ethic and energy.”
- To M0NESY: Encouraging him to “just enjoy CS” and emphasizing his potential when in good spirits.
- To MalbsMd: Describing him as an “amazing teammate and person.”
- To TaZ: Offering support to “always try to follow your vision.”
- To HuNter-: Thanking him for games and conversations and wishing him strength in the captain role.
- To HeavyGod: Expressing regret for their short time together and calling him a “beast.”
Adding a signature touch of Snax`s well-known personality and humor, he included an ironic side note about another player, Hades:
This line, delivered with classic esports banter, provided a lighthearted moment in an otherwise reflective farewell.
Snax also extended his gratitude to the G2 Esports organization itself for providing him with the opportunity, acknowledging his journey as a “little guy from Poland.”
Looking ahead, Snax admitted his next steps are currently uncertain, stating he has time to “fix some things.” His departure leaves the experienced player free to explore new avenues in competitive Counter-Strike.
While his period with G2 Esports might have been relatively brief, Snax`s impact, particularly in securing a major trophy at IEM Katowice 2024, will be a memorable chapter in both his career and the team`s history. The esports community now watches with interest to see where the veteran will land next.
