The opening day of ESL Pro League Season 23 is set to be an emotional powder keg as two of CS2’s most talked-about stars make their high-stakes debuts.

FaZe Clan’s 2026 CS2 season has unraveled into a series of brutal setbacks. After finishing 2025 as Major finalists, they’ve suffered disappointing exits at BLAST Bounty, IEM Kraków, and PGL Cluj-Napoca. The team’s structure looks broken, and questions around leadership, fragging power, and roster move pressure are mounting. With karrigan’s system faltering and key players underperforming, CS2 fans and analysts are calling for change.
hallzerk remains one of CS2’s great wildcards — explosive on his best days, invisible on his worst. He can drop star‑level numbers one series and struggle with costly misses the next.

Passion UA stunned the CS2 scene with two high-impact Valentine’s Day signings: South American AWPer try and Mongolian rifler Senzu. With hallzerk benched, Passion UA's new era is beginning. These moves inject firepower and flexibility into a roster hungry for international success. We're seeing betting value for sharp CS2 watchers already.

With poiii, Ag1L and sirah joining the lineup, 100 Thieves are starting from zero and betting on long-term upside, firepower and growth. The project carries both risk and massive potential, making it one of the most interesting new teams to follow — and bet on — this season.
