FOKUS Signs jocab and Extends ztr’s Loan

FOKUS has announced changes to its Counter-Strike 2 roster. The team has signed Swedish player Jacob “jocab” Nerheden, who will take the place of Sebastian “volt” Maloș in the starting five. Volt previously moved to INFINITE.

The 21-year-old jocab is a product of the Young Ninjas system. He played for Ninjas in Pyjamas’ academy roster from January 2024 to November 2025 before joining Johnny Speeds. With the Swedish team, he posted an average rating of 1.14 across 209 maps.

Jocab’s move comes amid a rebuild of his former team. Until the recent announcements, Johnny Speeds’ roster had been reduced to just him and Ludvig “HEAP” Alonso, before the organization introduced Hampus “hampus” Poser and William “draken” Sundin.

For FOKUS, this is already the second major change of the off-season. The team previously lost Georgi “Jorko” Mitev, who moved to Liquid, and brought in Paavo “podi” Heiskanen as his replacement.

FOKUS has also extended the loan of Erik “ztr” Gustafsson from GamerLegion. The player competed for the team during the spring part of the season and had previously been exploring other career options.
