Imperial Esports Move skullz to the Bench

Esports organization Imperial Esports has announced roster changes to its Counter-Strike 2 lineup. Brazilian player Felipe “skullz” Medeiros has been moved to the bench. The club shared the news on its social media but did not disclose the reasons behind the decision.

At the time of publication, it remains unclear where skullz will continue his career. According to Dust2 Brazil, one of the potential replacements could be Lucas “decenty” Bacelar, who is currently playing for Fluxo. However, there has been no official confirmation of a possible transfer.

skullz joined Imperial in August 2025. During his time with the team, he competed in several tournaments, including the StarLadder Budapest Major 2025. At the Major, Imperial finished in 12th-14th place and earned $20,000 in prize money. The team also participated in various smaller events and qualifiers but did not manage to secure any championship titles.

The roster changes may represent an attempt to reset the project and improve results on the international stage. The organization is expected to officially announce an updated lineup in the near future.
