HEROIC bench xfl0ud

Rumors link the Turkish Opener with a move to FUT in a swap deal for lauNX.

Yasin "⁠xfl0ud⁠" Koç has been benched from HEROIC, the organization announced on Tuesday.

The 23-year-old Turk had been with the team for a year and a half, a tenure briefly interrupted when he was placed on the bench in June 2025, before being reinstated two months later.

He joined the team as part of a core transfer from Sangal in an overhaul of the squad in early 2025, and now leaves as HEROIC are undergoing another.

The organization has already replaced the coach, Tobias "⁠TOBIZ⁠" Theo, with Joonas "⁠doto⁠" Forss, and looks to bring in Antonio "⁠MartinezSa⁠" Martinez for Simon "⁠yxngstxr⁠" Boije, who has filled the AWPer role ever since Alimzhan "⁠Alkaren⁠" Bitimbay was sidelined by visa issues.

Unconfirmed rumors suggest the organization will trade xfl0ud for Laurențiu "⁠lauNX⁠" Țârlea, who was benched from FUT earlier on Tuesday.

HEROIC's lineup is:

Simon "⁠yxngstxr⁠" Boije Linus "⁠nilo⁠" Bergman Tim "⁠susp⁠" Ångström Christoffer "⁠Chr1zN⁠" Storgaard

Joonas "⁠doto⁠" Forss (coach)

Yasin "⁠xfl0ud⁠" Koç (benched) Alimzhan "⁠Alkaren⁠" Bitimbay (benched)
