Andrey "Jerry" Mekhryakov's team will have the chance to play among top-tier competition in late June. FORZE have been invited to compete at the $250,000 Roobet Cup 2022 after GODSENT decided to withdraw their participation, HLTV.org has learned. No official reason for the replacement was given by the organizers, but the substitution comes just two days after a report was released indicating that 00NATION is interested in signing the majority of the GODSENT roster around Epitacio "TACO" de Melo. Currently ranked 20th in the HLTV.org world ranking, FORZE will be among the lowest positioned teams at the event, with eight out of the current top 15 teams set to participate, including the likes of FaZe, ENCE, and Cloud9. The tournament will be played online and start with a GSL group stage, from where eight teams will advance to a single-elimination bracket. With the event starting in a little over two weeks, the group distribution and opening matchups are yet to be revealed.
