One man's trash is another man's roster change.

kassad’s vanity project BLEED has signed yet more players in their ever-ongoing quest to be relevant. This time they've signed the usable remnants of Apeks, jkaem and nawwk. They'll be replacing VLDN and CeRq, who have both been fine we suppose. It's not like anyone is up in arms about them being benched.

Is this the move that'll actually get BLEED in the top 30? You know what, maybe.

Nawwk has proved to be quite a nifty AWPer, spawning free nawwk conversations during Apeks’… Worse times let's say. Quite an impressive rebound from the NIP incident. Meanwhile, jkaem is a certain type of CS hipster’s messiah, and we reckon he's pretty good.

That being said, we shouldn’t forget what team we’re talking about.

The bar isn’t that high for this move to work for BLEED, none of their rosters have achieved much of anything. Their biggest achievement is arguably making it out of the Thunderpick World Championship qualifier, and that speaks for it self really. If nawwk and jkaem can even get them out of the open qualifier for the next Major, this move will have been worth it four times over.

So, for Counter-Strike’s sake, let this work out. After a certain point, being just okay gets really boring.
