But instead of a loud debut, the project immediately found itself at the center of heated discussions. The reason was the choice of 22-year-old Dane Benjamin \u201cOlaie\u201d Olaie as the team\u2019s captain and his personal connections with the academy\u2019s head coach, Niels Christian \u201cNaToSaphiX\u201d Sillassen.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>FALCONS FORCE \u2014 THE START OF A NEW PROJECT<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Falcons academy was conceived as a pathway for young European talents to reach the big stage. The organization opened a global application process, which attracted thousands of players. After several qualifying stages, only five remained:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Vladimir \u201cVENO\u201d Stankovic (Serbia) \u2014 an aggressive rifler, known on the local scene for his consistent attacking play.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Andrei \u201cgrecu\u201d Grecu (Romania) \u2014 AWPer, one of the most promising snipers in the region, already featured in FPL-C.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Oskar \u201cclockzi\u201d Led Bl\u00e6sbjerg (Denmark) \u2014 a 14-year-old rifler, the youngest on the roster, already called a \u201cfuture discovery.\u201d<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Benjamin \u201cOlaie\u201d Olaie (Denmark) \u2014 IGL, who previously worked in the Ace League project connected to NaToSaphiX.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Matej \u201cNucleonZ\u201d Trajkoski (North Macedonia) \u2014 a versatile rifler combining aggression with team discipline.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>OLAIE AND THE CONNECTION TO NATOSAPHIX: THE MAIN SOURCE OF CONTROVERSY<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Right after the announcement, the community focused on Olaie\u2019s selection. His involvement in Ace League, a platform once developed by NaToSaphiX, raised suspicions of conflict of interest.<br>\nCritics claimed that it was thanks to these personal connections that he got the chance to become IGL of the Falcons academy, while other candidates were left out.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cI found the place where I wanna be.\u201d \ud83e\udde0<br>When a legend like <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NaToSaphiX?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@NatoSaphiX<\/a> believes in what we\u2019re building, it reminds us why we do this.<br>This agency was built to support, elevate, and open doors.<br>Let\u2019s keep building something special. \ud83d\udd25 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/I4CyPf4CNy\">pic.twitter.com\/I4CyPf4CNy<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 NEEVE.PRO Agency (@neevepro) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/neevepro\/status\/1937190847524823298?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 23, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>In response, NaToSaphiX insisted that Olaie went through the full selection process and was chosen for his work ethic and rapid progress. According to the coach, \u201che adapts to feedback faster than anyone else, and that\u2019s a key quality for a leader.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>FALCONS ACADEMY AS A BRIDGE FROM LOCAL LEAGUES TO THE GLOBAL STAGE<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Falcons Force matters not only for the club but also for the broader context. The roster brings together players from the Balkans, Eastern Europe, and Scandinavia \u2014 regions where young talents often lack direct access to the infrastructure of top clubs.<br>\nThe Falcons project opens the doors for them to the international level: training, psychological support, participation in bootcamps and tournaments.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">What a beautiful caster\ud83e\udd29 thanks for the tip <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hania_pudlis?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@hania_pudlis<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Ko29aias1n\">https:\/\/t.co\/Ko29aias1n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ace League (@AceLeagueCS) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AceLeagueCS\/status\/1900230080124649929?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 13, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>For Saudi Arabia, the academy is also a tool of long-term influence: the development of Falcons Force underlines the country\u2019s ambition to secure its place in world esports not only through high-profile transfers but also by investing in the future.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>POTENTIAL AND RISKS OF THE NEW ROSTER: WHAT TO EXPECT FROM FALCONS FORCE<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Falcons Force roster looks promising but at the same time unstable.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Pros: the presence of young talents, a strong AWPer in Grecu, and the potential of clockzi, already called one of the most exciting teenagers in CS2.<\/li>\n<li>Cons: lack of professional scene experience and the risk that controversies around Olaie may distract from the team\u2019s development.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In the short term, Falcons Force is expected to appear at secondary European tournaments. If the players can adapt to the pressure, the team could become a talent pipeline for the main Falcons roster.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>ACADEMY UNDER PRESSURE: CAN FALCONS FORCE WITHSTAND EXPECTATIONS?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Falcons Force begins with ambitious goals but also with a scandal that could shape the narrative around the team for a long time.
