Eternal Fire Roster Now Under Aurora Banner As Entire Squad Moves

On an unexpected twist as a dedicated gamer, I found myself out of the game when Aurora Gaming, based in Serbia, decided to replace their entire Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) esports team last Saturday, 5th April 2025. Instead, they snatched up the whole roster from Eternal Fire, a Turkish organization. It’s a new era for me now, as I join forces with my new teammates!

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but marvel at the phenomenal performance of our team, spearheaded by none other than Engin “MAJ3R” Küpeli, with the legendary İsmailçan “XANTARES” Dörtkardeş shining bright as our star player. We’ve been consistently delivering top-tier CS2 gameplay, earning us a spot among the elite in S-Tier. Currently, we find ourselves ranked 5th on HLTV and Valve’s global rankings, a testament to our unwavering dedication and skill.

As a gamer, I’m thrilled to announce that alongside our stellar team, we’ve brought on board Sezgin “Fabre” Kalaycı as our coach. This move ensures we keep our winning streak intact!

On social media, Aurora Gaming unexpectedly shared their announcement, leaving many fans surprised, given that it occurred at the start of PGL Bucharest 2025.

Today brings great excitement as we embark on a fresh achievement:

Introducing the latest additions to the Aurora CS2 team:

With this stellar lineup, they will proudly fly our colors in every premier CS2 tournament, and ultimately, the Majors!

The Turkish organization took to X to tweet about their journey, stating:

2021 marked the beginning of an exciting adventure for us, fueled by grand aspirations and our Counter-Strike team. Our goal was clear: to carve out our own niche, make a lasting impact on the scene, and elevate Turkey’s reputation on a global scale. Since then, we’ve experienced triumphs and setbacks side by side, always united. The memories of our groundbreaking achievements, such as becoming the first Turkish team to rank among the top 5 globally, will forever remain etched in our minds. We are now thrilled to share that our CS2 squad has officially joined Aurora.

As a gamer, here’s how I might rephrase it: “Wrapping up our announcement, Eternal Fire acknowledged that CS2 was born from our team, but this isn’t a farewell. There could be a new squad on the horizon! We want to express our gratitude to our coaches, players, and everyone else who’s been part of our journey since 2021.

We can’t wait to see how the squad performs under the Aurora Gaming banner!
