Fluxo continue making sharp personnel moves amid a problematic start to 2026. The Brazilian organization has officially announced the end of its cooperation with head coach Marcos tacitus, closing a nearly two-year chapter of development that ultimately failed to bring the team to a stable international level.
Internal pressure
The decision looks like a logical continuation of the chain of changes Fluxo initiated back in January. After parting ways with their captain and IGL, the team still failed to stabilize its play, and early-season results only intensified internal pressure. Against the backdrop of ranking drops and early exits from qualifiers, the coaching staff became the first to take the hit.

The end of the tacitus era
Marcos tacitus worked with Fluxo for more than 21 months — a period that included several roster rebuilds, local successes in South America, and occasional appearances at major events. The team regularly won domestic trophies, but on the international stage they failed to establish themselves among competitive lineups. Even the major tournaments Fluxo qualified for often ended in quick exits without any real impact on the playoff picture.
A disastrous start to 2026
The year 2026 proved to be the turning point. Fluxo exited closed qualifiers for major events early and also performed poorly at regional LAN tournaments. The combination of these results led to a noticeable drop in the global rankings and the loss of momentum the team had tried to build at the end of last season. In this situation, the organization chose to act decisively and quickly, without allowing time for a prolonged rebuild.
A systemic issue, not a single decision
It is important to note that the coach’s dismissal does not look like an isolated move. It is part of a broader identity crisis for Fluxo, who are still searching for balance between young players, in-map roles, and an overall strategic model. Frequent roster changes, role instability, and the lack of a long-term vision made the coaching position vulnerable regardless of the individual in charge.
Fluxo is now:
- Romeu ‘zevy’ Rocco
- Kayke ‘kye’ Bertolucci
- Lucas ‘Lucaozy’ Neves
- Lucas ‘decenty’ Bacelar
- Raphael ‘exit’ Lacerda
- Matheus ‘mlhzin’ Marçola (benched)
What’s next for Fluxo
At the moment, Fluxo are without a head coach at a time when the team critically needs structure and a clear in-game direction. The organization’s next decision — whether to bring in a new coach or adopt a temporary internal leadership model — will be decisive in determining whether the team can stop the decline and return to competing at least at a top-40 level.
An unsuccessful start to 2026
Parting ways with tacitus became a logical conclusion to the failed start of 2026 and the overall stagnation of results. For Fluxo, this is yet another signal that cosmetic changes are no longer enough — the team needs a deep rebuild with a clear plan. The only question is whether this decision will mark the beginning of a new cycle or become just another step in prolonged turbulence.
