9z Signs history for Singapore Major

9z will take the field at the Singapore Major with a different AWPer. Allan "history" Lawrenz, who has also played as an AWPer for Fluxo and RED Canids, will join the team as a substitute, replacing Ignacio "meyern" Meyer. The information is based on reports from Dust2 Brasil and infocsar.

According to the reports, 9z failed to reach an agreement with ShindeN over the transfer of the benched AWPer Ivan "ivz" Quintana. The team then turned to the Brazilian player.

The team had reached the quarterfinals of the IEM Cologne Major and won the XSE Pro League Guangzhou. Recently, however, its form has dropped, and it is currently on a seven-match losing streak. Head coach Bruno "BIT" Fukuda Lima said the team had qualified for the Singapore Major "lucky". 9z will begin the tournament at Stage 1.

meyern has been on the 9z roster since November 2025, when he took over the starting lineup from Guilherme "levi" Gustavo. This year, he averaged a 0.98 rating in LAN matches.
