r1nkle Joins G2 as the Team's New AWPer

G2 Esports has officially announced the signing of Ukrainian AWPer Artem "r1nkle" Moroz to its Counter-Strike 2 roster. The organization revealed the move through its social media channels.

r1nkle replaces Spanish sniper Álvaro "SunPayus" García, who was recently moved to the bench. The transfer marks a new chapter in Moroz's career after his time with Ninjas in Pyjamas. In April 2026, the Swedish organization benched the Ukrainian player, leaving him available for a new opportunity.

As of the time of publication, SunPayus' next destination remains unknown.

r1nkle is expected to make his debut for G2 at BLAST Bounty Summer 2026. The online stage of the tournament will take place from July 21 to July 26, with 32 teams competing for eight spots at the LAN Finals. The final stage will be held in Malta from July 30 to August 2.
