tikuak Returns to Chinggis Warriors After Short Spell With The MongolZ

Mongolian player Zolbayar "tikuak" Chimedtseren has left the starting lineup of The MongolZ and returned to Chinggis Warriors, the team he represented before moving to the more established organization. The roster change was announced just a few months after his summer transfer.

The 17-year-old joined The MongolZ in July 2026 following strong performances for Chinggis Warriors. With his previous team, tikuak was considered one of the region’s most promising players and posted an average rating of around 1.15, which helped him appear several times in HLTV’s young talent rankings.

However, he was unable to establish himself in The MongolZ starting lineup. During his time competing at a higher level, tikuak played 21 maps and finished the stint with an average rating of 0.91. The team also produced inconsistent results, placing 9th–16th at EWC and finishing FISSURE Playground 3 in last place.

The situation was further complicated by roster changes, with cobrazera and Techno moving in and out of the starting five at different points.

Following tikuak’s departure, The MongolZ are left with only three active players:

• Sodbayar "Techno" Munkhbold

• Garidmagnai "bLitz" Byambasuren

• Usukhbayar "910" Banzragch

Erdenedalai "maaRaa" Bayanbat remains the team’s head coach.

The MongolZ will now need to complete their roster quickly ahead of PGL Masters Bucharest, which begins in less than a month. For tikuak, returning to Chinggis Warriors gives him an opportunity to regain consistent playing time and continue developing in a familiar environment.
