Didn't see that one coming

FURIA fe star to join top Asian Impact team

Olga is reportedly close to making a monumental change in her career.

Earlier this week, Olga "Olga" Rodrigues was reported to leave FURIA fe. Voted HLTV's #2 Women's Player of 2022, Olga commands a large amount of firepower, so questions arose around her rumored departure from Brazil's best women's team.

It was initially reported that Olga would join an international team, and now, reported by Game Awards and confirmed by Dust2 Brasil, we know Olga will be joining HSG fe, Asia's top Impact squad.

HSG fe are no slouches in the women's scene, making a semifinal appearance in ESL Impact Season 2 Finals and finishing in 5-6th at ESL Impact Katowice 2023. However, it is a bit of a strange move considering that FURIA fe finished above HSG fe in both of those events.

HSG fe is notable for being the only women's team to compete at an RMR Closed Qualifier. It is not known who Olga will replace on HSG fe. This move came at an inopportune time for the Brazilian side, as FURIA fe started their ESL Impact League Season 3 South America campaign today. They are electing to use Gabriela "gabs" Freindorfer in Olga's stead, for now at least.

According to the report, Olga's departure from FURIA fe is all but confirmed, however, they are yet to comment on the transfer.

With this move, FURIA fe and HSG fe are expected to be:

FURIA fe:

  • Brazil Gabriela "bokor" Bokor

  • Brazil Gabriela "GaBi" Maldonado

  • Brazil Izabella "izaa" Galle

  • Brazil Karina "kaah" Takahashi

  • Brazil Gabriela "gabs" Freindorfer (Stand-In)

  • Brazil Lucas "segalla" Mancini (Coach)

HSG fe:

  • SinMan "Hazel" Fong

  • Ramona "gfi" Azween Binti Zaharuddin

  • Nian "Hffo" Zhao

  • Aisya "Argent" Sabrina

  • Xinni "XiaoWu" Wu

  • Brazil Olga"Olga" Rodrigues

  • Narinpal "fluckz" Singh (Coach)
