GuardiaN Returns to CS as a Coach

Away from CS for two years, the legendary player GuardiaN returns to the scene as a coach.

Today, GuardiaN announced his return to the competitive stage, taking on the role of coach for BC.Game. The team officially entered the CS scene earlier this week.

GuardiaN is currently the only confirmed member of BC.Game’s roster, with other players yet to be announced, expected by the end of June.

Commenting on the team formation, GuardiaN shared, “I am building a squad consisting of players who haven’t had enough opportunities to showcase their best. They deserve more chances to demonstrate their true potential. With my extensive experience in the ups and downs of the CS world, I believe I can guide and support them to reach their peak performance.”

Known as one of the top snipers since the CS: Source days, GuardiaN successfully transitioned to CS:GO, representing teams like Virtus.pro, Natus Vincere, and FaZe, winning 17 international offline titles between 2014 and 2019.

Excited about his new role, GuardiaN said, “It took me some time to accept that I would become a coach, but life is about trying new things. I’ve gained so much knowledge and skill from my teams, and I’m thrilled to pass these on to the players I’ll be coaching. I’ve enjoyed my break, but I’ve missed the thrill of esports.

As a coach, it’s a fresh journey for me, so I don’t set specific expectations right away. However, I’ll give it my all, bringing the same passion I had as a player. My goal remains unchanged: to achieve the best possible results. I have the trust of the club, and I’ll work tirelessly not to let anyone down.

Both BC.Game and I are looking at the long-term, aiming to create a supportive environment for the players. While qualifying for a Major is an added bonus, BC.Game wants us to perform to the best of our abilities, constantly improving as a team, participating in tournaments, and having fun along the way.”
