Popular French Counter-Strike coach Remy "XTQZZZ" Quoniam has left Team SoloMid, which recently returned to CS esports, after only a month, and according to rumors from several different sources, he is already in talks with Vitality about returning to the organization with which he achieved his greatest successes in his career.
Let's remind you, Vitality remains without its coach because Danny "zonic" Sorensen decided not to accept the offer he received to renew his contract with the team. His contract expires on November 1, when he will move to the rich Arab organization Falcons, with whom he will try to create a super team that will dominate CS2 esports.
Vitality found themselves in a situation where they needed a new coach, and French player Sebastien "KRL" Perez was the first to spread the rumor that they contacted their former coach shortly after the agreement on parting with Zonic.
Just two days later, TSM announced on social media that XTQZZZ had expressed his desire to leave the team, which he was granted. In the meantime, assistant coach Lameber "Lamber" Prigent will take over the helm in TSM, and it remains to be seen whether he will get a chance to fight for the position of head coach, or whether the American organization will bring someone else to that position.
TSM brought in well-known Counter-Strike esports names such as Audric "JACKZ" Jug, Valdemar "valde" Bjorn Vangsa and Timofey "interz" Yakusin, but in order for the squad they formed to reach its potential, there is a lot of work ahead of them in the new version games, for which they will definitely need the help of experts. Losing someone with the experience of XTQZZZ is certainly a big blow to the organization, but they have plenty of time to get back on their feet and fight for their place on the extremely competitive European scene.
