LOUD drop Counter-Strike roster before officially announcing team

LOUD have released their Counter-Strike roster before the Brazilian organization ever officially announced the team.

In-game leader Leonardo "zmb" Toledo and coach Pablo "disturbed" Fernandes confirmed that they are no longer contracted to LOUD.

Team plans to remain together

LOUD reportedly completed the signing of the LP roster in May and had already financially supported the project despite never making the move public.

According to Dust2 Brasil, the organization covered tournament registration fees and financed a BOOTCAMP in Portugal .

The lineup competed at several European LAN events, finishing 5th–8th at Roman Imperium Cup VIII, HyperX Retake Season 12 and LeonBet Masters Season 1.

zmb and disturbed said the players intend to remain together while also being open to individual offers.

The lineup consists of zmb, Leomonster , Alisson , happ and divine , with disturbed as coach.

LOUD's withdrawal from the project comes during a turbulent period for Brazilian esports following changes to the country's betting regulations. Keyd Stars also recently paused its Counter-Strike operation while citing changes to the competitive and business environment.
