saadzin joins Imperial

Imperial has officially announced the signing of Brazilian AWPer Guilherme "saadzin" Pacheco from Legacy. This move comes amid reports that Santino "try" Rigal is heading to Legacy in exchange.

saadzin steps in for Guilherme "levi" Gustavo, who was benched after a brief four-month stint with Imperial. Before the announcement, saadzin showcased his potential while temporarily standing in for Imperial at the CCT South America Series 3, where he achieved an average rating of 1.09 and helped the team secure victory in the $15,000 online tournament against opponents such as ALKA, Isurus, LP, and Bounty Hunters.

Prior to joining Imperial, saadzin spent two years with Legacy following a transfer from W7M in May 2024. During his time with Legacy, he maintained an average rating of 1.09, clinched two CAC titles, and participated in the Majors in Austin, Budapest, and Cologne.

With saadzin now in place, Imperial will look to address the vacancy left by the departure of head coach Rafael "zakk" Fernandes. The current lineup for Imperial includes Marcelo "chelo" Cespedes, Vinicius "VINI" Figueiredo, Lucas "decenty" Bacelar, Kaiky "noway" Santos, and Guilherme "saadzin" Pacheco.
