Monte has revealed that 21-year-old Szymon ‘kRaSnaL’ Mrozek will be leaving the team, and the Polish rifler will become a free agent starting January 1.
This is the second off-season transaction for Monte following the decision to bench Kamil ‘KEi’ Pietkun and to part ways with coach Piotr ‘nawrot’ Nawrocki on December 20, which has left only three players remaining as they approach the new year.

In 2023, there were two distinct highlights, but 2024 proved to be less favorable as Monte failed to qualify for the PGL Major Copenhagen after stumbling at the RMR, with their preparation hindered by illness affecting Viktor ‘sdy’ Orudzhev.
The Ukrainian left by mutual consent shortly thereafter, which was a significant setback for the lineup as it tried to cope with the absence of its second vocalist and star. In the ensuing months, various academy players were called up with considerable success.
Following the tournament break, Monte shifted to a roster primarily composed of Polish players and made it to the semi-finals at ESL Challenger Katowice, yet experienced a generally poor conclusion to the year. They did not qualify for the Perfect World Shanghai Major after being eliminated from the Europe RMR closed qualifier with a record of 2-3, and they failed to reach any significant LAN events, leaving only online tournaments available for the remainder of the year.
Monte Announcement
Monte roster for now is as follows:
- Paweł ‘dycha’ Dycha

- Sergiy ‘DemQQ’ Demchenko
- Kamil ‘KEi’ Pietkun (bench)
