GamerLegion have once again found themselves in the spotlight of the fans after being eliminated from the StarLadder Major Budapest 2025 — but this time it is not about their losses, but about a humorous tweet from sl3nd. The community did not miss the chance to jump on the meme wave — and turned the situation into a full-scale info stream.
Sl3nd hints at “another AWP change”
Henrich “sl3nd” Hevesi, who is currently benched in GamerLegion, unintentionally dropped a spark into a barrel of jokes:
maybe time for another awp change😂@GamerLegion
— Sl3nD (@sl3ndd) November 26, 2025
That alone was enough for social media to instantly explode with reactions. Some called it an honest confession, while others saw it as a hit on the team already going through difficult times. Especially after an unsuccessful Major performance, where GL finished 12-14th with a 37.9% winrate over the last three months.
Fans immediately recalled all the previous reshuffles in the roster: within just one year, GamerLegion went through a wave of changes, and sl3nd himself was a starter first, then moved to the bench — despite holding a 1.04 rating during his time in the active lineup.
Memes joined the party quickly: Drizzy-style quotes about “bench players talking like starters,” HLTV charts with sniper stats, and even jokes about a “GL AWP marketplace.”
What is happening inside GamerLegion
The current starting roster looks like this:
- Erik ‘ztr’ Gustafsson,
- Sebastian ‘Tauson’ Lindelof,
- Oldřich ‘PR’ Nový,
- Fredrik ‘REZ’ Sterner,
- Milan ‘hypex’ Polowiec.
- Coach: Ashley ‘ash’ Battye
But the sense of stability is not present. The sniper position is the hottest point of pressure right now. Fans do not understand why he is still on the bench when hypex has only recently joined and is sitting at a 0.93 rating.

What this could mean
GamerLegion are clearly preparing changes — and the ironic tweet from sl3nd is either: a way to draw attention before a return to the starting lineup, or a signal that another roster experiment is already brewing inside the team The organization has not issued any official statements yet. But after such a community reaction, staying silent won’t be possible for long.
