Swedish player Simon " Yxngstxr " Boye has officially left Heroic , with the organization announcing that he is beginning a "new journey."

Yxngstxr joined Heroic in 2025 and filled several different roles during his time with the team. At the start of 2026, he returned from the bench due to Alcarena's visa issues and temporarily took over AWP duties.

Performances with Heroic

It was in the sniper role that Yxngstxr helped Heroic reach the first stage of the IEM Cologne Major.

Across the season, the Swedish player maintained an average rating of 6.1 while adapting to the team's changing needs.

During the summer roster reshuffle, Heroic moved Yxngstxr to the bench. He later continued competing at the tier-2 level, gaining additional match experience outside the active lineup.
