Born of Fire sign Zac

Born Of Fire have announced the addition of former Skyred member Ngoc "Zac" Thien Nguyen to their roster

The Vietnamese player will step into the shoes of SiXan "⁠Artill⁠" Yu, who has been loaned out to AllGamers.

Ngoc "⁠Zac⁠" Thien Nguyen, who is known for his time with the Skyred roster that competed at the highest level in Asia before disbanding in 2015, was last seen representing Rebellion.


Zac will be stepping in for Born of Fire

This move comes after Born Of Fire's unsuccessful run at China Cup, where they failed to win a single map throughout the tournament, and five days before their first match in the Chinese qualifier for IEM Sydney.

Here are the five men who will be donning Born Of Fire's colors:

China LiKan "⁠ryk⁠" Luo
China TianQi "⁠ed101⁠" Han
China Lei "⁠bottle⁠" Mao
China YangYang "⁠ayaya⁠" Zheng
Vietnam Ngoc "⁠Zac⁠" Thien Nguyen

Really I wondering why you bring this kind of news. The chinese eSports scene give self a shit of news or interviews, from TyLoo until ViCi. No one of csgo scene is intresting from china, Tyloo said self the management of orgs so weak in Asia.

To be fair, the potential roster changes of TyLoo and company are far more interesting than the equivalent of any CIS org, discount Gambit concerning Dosia. As stated, don't read if you aren't interested. HLTV is supposed to be the hub concerning professional Counter-Strike all around the world, not a circlejerk around the icings on the cake.

huge communication problem, and most SEA(south east asia) player always has a bad temper and bad manner. They just talk while they already dead. They don't care to interrupt/disturb teammates. Rude talk + bad manner + disturb teammate(sometime TK if u don't carry their "order") + ignorance + can't unstand slightly complicated strategy = A lot of SEA Player. ( I am not say "most", and one of my Canadian friend who has traveled to SEA and get the same conclusion. In football, buy BASIL player is good. In CSGO, buy SWEDISH PLAYER to study teamwork, or buy DANISH PLAYER to study tatic/strategy are good. but a SEA player? nothing worse than that. How does SEA player to pronunce "tunnel"? they say "dannel". lol. "o my god, just give ur gun/knife"——many SEA player do this things. annoying.
