Imperial Esports, a Brazilian organization, has signed AWPer Guilherme “levi” Gustavo as part of their ongoing rebuild of the Counter-Strike 2 roster after recent changes.
Levi joins Imperial after playing for 9z Team. He takes the spot of Santino “try” Rigal, who recently moved to Passion UA.
Levi’s Path to Imperial
Levi first made a name for himself with Sharks Youngsters and W7M Esports, which led to his move to 9z in mid-2025.
While playing for 9z, Levi had some impressive performances and strong ratings in South American events. Still, he had trouble staying consistent and ended with an average rating just over 1.00.
Even with these ups and downs, Imperial believes Levi has a lot of potential and could become a key part of the team in the future.
Imperial’s Current Lineup
With Levi joining, Imperial’s active roster now features:
- Marcelo “chelo” Cespedes
- Kaiky “noway” Santos
- Vinicius “VINI” Figueiredo
- Guilherme “levi” Gustavo
- Rafael “zakk” Fernandes (coach)
What This Means for Imperial
This signing shows that Imperial is choosing to rebuild with up-and-coming players instead of established stars. With more roster changes possible, the team seems focused on long-term growth and stability after recent departures.
How well Levi adapts to top-level competition will likely shape the success of Imperial’s rebuild, especially as the team works to stay competitive in the changing South American CS2 scene.
