It is always an exciting time in the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) esports community when a new organization enters and is ready to take its shot at winning some championships. The latest high-profile organization to do so is Gen.G, who announced its entry in the CS:GO esports scene on Friday, December 6th.
Gen.G took to its Twitter account to reveal that the first three members of its CS:GO team are Damian "daps" Steele, Timothy "autimatic" Ta, and Kenneth "koosta" Suen. The organization went on to state that the remaining two players of the roster will be revealed in the coming weeks.
We are honored to join the CS:GO community and welcome three veteran players as the core of our CS roster.

Cloud9 was the former home of daps, autimatic, and koosta before their transfer to Gen.G on December 6th. The veteran player of autimatic helped Cloud9 become the first North American team to win a CS:GO major during the organization's highlight-filled championship run at the 2018 ELEAGUE Major in Boston.
