Counter Strike 2: Passion UA officially announce the signing of AWP-er try and rifler Senzu..

Ukrainian Counter Strike 2 powerhouse Passion UA announced on Friday via their official X (Twitter) account that they have signed former 9z AWP-er try and former The MongolZ rifler Senzu.

According to Passion UA's official statement, Senzu will join the team on-loan. However, the club did not announce which player will be benched, but it is widely expected that former rifler hallzerk will be among those benched.

It's worth mentioning that Senzu recently said he wanted to try transitioning into AWP-er, so it's currently unclear how the two players will be assigned roles within the team.

Passion UA has had a very disappointing start to two offline tournaments this year. The team was eliminated in both the BLAST Bounty Season 1 and the first stage of the Intel Extreme Masters (IEM) Katowice Stage 1, indicating that roster changes are inevitable.
