Passion UA Valentine’s Day CS2 Roster Moves — Try and Senzu in, Hallzerk out

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.

Passion UA Valentine’s Day CS2 Roster Moves — Try and Senzu in, Hallzerk out

Passion UA Shake Up their CS2 Roster with Try and Senzu Signings

Passion UA made headlines this Valentine’s Day with two bold CS2 roster moves: signing Santino “try” Rigal, one of South America’s top AWPers, and bringing in Azbayar “Senzu” Munkhbold on loan from The MongolZ.

Try, formerly Imperial’s star AWPer, arrives with strong track record and CS2 stats  — three Major appearances and a 1.19 HLTV rating over the past 18 months. His consistency and firepower could give Passion UA the edge they’ve lacked in international tournaments.

Senzu, ranked #13 globally in 2025 at HLTV Awards, joins as a rifler but has expressed interest in transitioning to AWPing long-term. His addition adds depth and flexibility to a squad already featuring Grim, JT, nicx, and Kvem. But at Passion UA he seems to continue with the rifle and and the option for world class secondary AWPer.

With hallzerk benched, the team now sits at seven players plus coach T.c, leaving questions about who will make way for Senzu in the active lineup.

Passion UA now have the following 7 man roster + coach

CS2Bet.io Betting Take

Passion UA’s Valentine’s Day roster shake‑up creates one of the most intriguing betting angles of early 2026. Adding try and Senzu massively raises their skill ceiling, even if the lineup remains unstable in the short term. Try brings elite AWP consistency with a 1.19 rating, while Senzu adds top‑tier rifling and long‑term superstar potential.

But there are some concerns too. Senzu has not played before outside Mongolia, and his language skills in English is a bit of question mark. Senzu has been able to prepare for the international move for several months now after being benched at The MongolZ.

From a betting perspective, this roster becomes high‑variance but high‑reward. Passion UA may struggle with immediate synergy, but their firepower spike makes them dangerous in BO1s and upset‑capable in BO3s. Markets may undervalue them early, especially before the starting five is confirmed.

For now, Passion UA are a team to monitor closely for value spots, particularly against mid‑tier opponents who lack the raw talent to match try + Senzu. If the lineup stabilizes, their outright and top‑4 odds could become extremely attractive. Both of the new additions have the talent and firepower to turn matches by themselves even before the team has glued together.
