SKIN.CLUB x FURIA

His greatest achievements came during Brazil’s golden era in 2016. FalleN won two consecutive Majors at MLG Columbus and ESL One Cologne, establishing himself as one of the top players and in-game leaders in the world. According to HLTV, FalleN was ranked second in 2016 and sixth in 2017.

In July 2023, FalleN joined FURIA, creating a link between one of the leading organizations of the new generation of Brazilian Counter-Strike and one of the legendary figures in the country’s CS history. His role changed significantly with the arrival of molodoy in 2025. FalleN stepped away from the AWP and transitioned to a rifling role but remained the team’s leader.

The change helped FURIA achieve the best results in the organization’s history. Under FalleN’s leadership, the team entered a trophy-winning period at the end of 2025 and reached its first Major grand final at IEM Cologne in 2026. FalleN stated that he will retire from professional Counter-Strike by the end of 2026.

Unlike many stars who eventually leave for international projects, KSCERATO has built nearly his entire top-level career around FURIA. Through multiple roster changes and different tactical systems, he has remained one of the team’s most reliable sources of firepower and a central piece of the organization’s identity. He even confirmed in 2023 that Liquid had approached him, but he chose to remain with FURIA.

Years of strong individual performances established KSCERATO among Brazil’s leading players, but 2025 finally brought the team success that matched his individual level. He earned the first HLTV MVP award of his career at the Thunderpick World Championship as FURIA entered its trophy-winning run, and he finished the year ranked No. 9 in HLTV’s Top 20 players.

Today, KSCERATO remains one of the pillars around which FURIA is built. The roster around him has become international, the system has changed, and expectations have increased, but his role as one of the team’s primary stars has remained constant.

Throughout different versions of FURIA, yuurih has been valued for his versatility. Rather than being tied to one narrow responsibility, he has adapted to different roles and systems while consistently providing the team with stability. His performances earned him places in HLTV’s Top 20 players of the year in both 2020 and 2022.

He experienced almost every major chapter of FURIA’s history firsthand: the team’s rise to international relevance, Major playoff runs, the emotional semifinal appearance in Rio, years of roster changes, and eventually the transition to an international lineup in 2025.

That patience was finally rewarded with the most successful trophy run in the organization’s history. Years after helping build FURIA from its foundations, yuurih remains part of a roster capable of competing for the biggest titles in Counter-Strike — including reaching the organization’s first Major grand final in Cologne.

His career later took him to Liquid, where he gained experience on an international roster and eventually took on greater responsibility within the team’s system. After leaving Liquid, YEKINDAR received another opportunity at the highest level when FURIA brought him in as a stand-in in April 2025.

The move quickly became much more than a temporary solution. YEKINDAR helped FURIA build its new international system and also played an important part in helping molodoy adapt while the young Kazakh AWPer was still becoming comfortable communicating in English. FURIA made the transfer permanent in July 2025, signing YEKINDAR through the summer of 2027.

His arrival helped change both the style and identity of the team. FURIA was no longer limited to Brazilian talent, and YEKINDAR’s experience in European and North American Counter-Strike provided another perspective inside FalleN’s system. The result was the most successful period in the organization’s history, with four trophies in late 2025 and a Major final the following year.

This decision brought important changes to both molodoy’s and FalleN’s roles. For the former, it meant adapting to high-level competition, learning to communicate in English, and taking over the primary AWP role, while for the latter, it meant giving up his long-standing role to the newcomer. But instead of struggling under the pressure, molodoy emerged as one of the best rookies of his generation.

He had one of the best rookie seasons in recent Counter-Strike history. In addition to receiving his first HLTV MVP award at FISSURE Playground 2 and his second at IEM Chengdu, molodoy helped FURIA win four tournaments and finished 2025 as one of the six best players in the world, while also earning the title of HLTV’s Rookie of the Year.

In 2026, molodoy was no longer a rookie. He had joined the ranks of the team’s top stars, contributing to FURIA’s run to the final of the IEM Cologne Major. For FURIA, the young player’s rise represented exactly what its international project was designed to achieve.
