HEROIC has announced that a deal has been reached to extend René ‘TeSeSâ ‘ Madsen’s contract with the organization for another two years, through to 2026.
The organization and the player have had a successful partnership since 2020, winning three titles during the online era and three more at the peak of the team’s performance in 2022 and 2023.
‘TeSeS’ emerged in HEROIC as a Danish lineup led by Casper ‘cadiaN’ Møller and star rifler Martin ‘stavn’ Lund. Jakob ‘jabbi’ Nygaard later joined, and the team went on to win two BLAST Premier trophies.
Now, only ‘TeSeS’ and ‘sjuushâ ‘ remain from the original roster. ‘stavn’ and ‘jabbi’ joined Astralis, earning the nickname “stabbi”, while ‘cadiaN’ went to Team Liquid.
After parting ways with their Danish core, HEROIC embarked on a journey to build an international roster, bringing in Damjan ‘â kyxsanâ ‘ Stoilkovski, Guy ‘â NertZ’ Iluz, and most recently, Abdul ‘â degster’Gasanov.
The team didn’t reach its Danish peak but made the playoffs at BetBoom Dacha and IEM Dallas before a group stage exit at YaLLa Compass.
