Evil Geniuses is considering the return of maLeK

According to the portal BLIX.gg, the North American esports organization Evil Geniuses is considering the possibility of returning maLeK to the role of coach of the main team in the CS:GO discipline. The club is ready to admit its mistake in removing the 36-year-old French specialist, but is also interested in the candidacy of vorborg, the former Copenhagen Flames coach.

maLeK worked with the North American team from December 2021 to May 2022. During this time, the French specialist did not achieve great success with the team, getting involved in an internal conflict with Stewie2K. As a result, the 36-year-old coach left his position after failing at BLAST Premier: Spring American Showdown 2022, as the organization opted for its captain in a controversy.

In turn, vorborg has been the coach of the latest iteration of the Copenhagen Flames, having been working with the roster since the start of the year. In six months, the 30-year-old Dane helped the team win Pelaajat.com Nordic Masters: Spring 2022 and PGL Major Antwerp 2022: European RMR B, get into the TOP-3 at Pinnacle Winter Series #1 and Thunderpick Bitcoin Series 2022, and reach quarter-finals of PGL Major Antwerp 2022.

However, the Danish organization disbanded the roster in early June, while vorborg himself decided to step down as coach and co-founder of Copenhagen Flames in search of a new challenge.

The day before, the organization officially expelled Stewie2K from the starting lineup, who remained at the club as a content creator. Now Evil Geniuses intends to find a coach who will work with the team in the second half of the 2022 season.

The Evil Geniuses organization is rumored to be shaking up their core roster, intending to sign misutaaa and neaLaN. If these transfers go through, the team will face a move to Europe as the club moves away from the North American lineup for the first time in a long time.

The next championship for the main roster of Evil Geniuses will be BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2022, which will start in mid-August. At the same time, the team will start its way through the open qualifiers for the RMR tournament.

The likely composition of Evil Geniuses in the CS:GO discipline is as follows:

• automatic
• Brehze
• CeRq
• misutaaa
• neaLaN
• maLeK/vorborg (head coach)
