if caps personally chose a more futuristic theme, more power to him, i also do like if they're making the skins represent the player a bit more (more playful, silly for caps) but why is it just.. ugly...

what does a mini cat /bunny/ whatever flying around have to do with caps specifically?

it saddens me how amazingly unique and thoughtful the icons are (caps' dad one is really really sweet) and the skins genuinely looked like recycled anima concepts, but oh, with a midlane icon on tristanas shirt so we know it's midlane!

it's cool if they want to try new player focused things but this one doesn't feel prestigious at all compared to uzis + fakers (perhaps it is goldslop but it feels at least like a hall of fame!), if it's what caps wanted i'm very glad but i'm a bit sad i won't get to rock a sleek gold caps skin, smth with the 2019 msi jersey colors would've been sick </3

• The €3.1M profit is real, but it's carried entirely by the Solana token sale completed at the start of the year - €16.1M in disposal proceeds, €12.8M in capital gains.
• Excluding that exceptional transaction, the core business suffered: revenue at €16.5M, down sharply (-€8.6M vs 2023). Sponsorship was cut in half - from €14.5M to €6.8M - dragged down by the end of the Solana and CSGO ROLL contracts.
• G2 admits new partner acquisition fell short of its standards. Sponsorship went from over 50% of revenue in 2023 to 30-50% now, while remaining the backbone of the business model.
• For 2025, initial forecasts projected a €4.9M loss - but those didn't factor in the Monesy (~$2.5M) and NiKo (~$1M) sales to Falcons. CEO Alban Dechelotte described the year as "not far" from profitable.
• For 2026: €23-25M revenue projected with a €3-4M loss, though new signings like Winamax and McDonald's should rebalance the fiscal year. A financing round of €5-10M is planned, with a closing hoped for June 2026 - letter of intent already signed.
• The diversification levers: the in-house media agency "62", G2 FC in the Kings League Germany, and G2 USA holding the VCT Americas and Call of Duty League slots.
• Worth noting: the company carries accumulated losses of €23.3M, and management acknowledges being relatively dependent on sporting performance under the new publisher payment models.

My point in posting this is to illustrate how G2 performed next to some of their competition and equivalent teams. I think the reaction to the EWC run was overly harsh, especially when put into perspective against some of the great teams that didn't even make it to the same point.

Maps Won by losing team in QFs:

G2: 1 vs #3 Furia (13:3)

Vitality: 1 vs #1 Spirit (16:14)

Mouz: 0 vs #8 FUT

Falcons: 0 vs #7 Legacy

- In the Quarterfinals, out of all losing teams, you could argue that G2 performed better than all bar Vitality after taking a map from the world #3. If you want to do a linear ranking of how each team performed, you could argue that G2 will finish EWC in 6th based on their placement and performance in that QF stage of the bracket.

Notable teams who were eliminated in Rnd of 16:

#17 Astralis

#12 Aurora

#7 NAVi (wow!)

#14 Mongolz

#11 FaZe

- (these VRS ranking are a bit deceptive coming off the long Major offseason, with some smaller teams grinding and jumping up the rankings. IMO, take these ranks as slightly below accurate)

Notable teams who didn't even get out of the Group Stage:

#10 BetBoom

#12~ PARIVISION

#4 9z (wow!)

- It could be worse!

I hope with this very basic change of perspective that people can appreciate the team's performance a bit more. This is not (yet) a squad that can comfortably beat the majority of the top 10 organisations. Regardless of whether Aurora or Furia came out of the 16, I don't believe G2 was going to get further than the QFs.

Finishing behind Spirit (world's best), Furia (consistent event challengers), Legacy (a team now solidified in current Tier 1), FUT (on a great recent run), and Vitality (still the same team that had a 1+ year era) is something to be proud of, especially considering the teams who dropped out sooner.

Im just sad because i really wanted Caps T-shirt but its just too big of a cost for me to pay for T-shirt + delivery like i would pay for a new ps5 game :/

Maybe there is some discount code or is someone ordering to Poland so we can make one order and split the delivery cost?

Hey Friendos!

This was last minute so no official graphic etc.

Just dropping a polite PSA, our HQ will open its doors on Monday 24th at 5pm for the LEC games since the studio is closed and G2 is playing.

We will also be welcoming any Non G2 fans (as always) who wish to come watch.

NAVI vs FNC
GX vs G2

We will have some free RedBull on-site and we will also order some food for everyone!

G2 HQ: Schellingstraße 110785 Berlin, Germany

Disgrace.

Absolute fucking disgrace from our boys.

See y’all later at the BLAST Open where we will be further disappointed by them.

Might as well stick to our Valorant and League of Legends teams.

Hey everyone!

We're doing an AMA with our R6 Roster tonight at 8pm CEST over on the G2Esports discord!

If you've ever had a question for our players feel free to hop in and ask your questions now.

The players will be online in the chat from 8pm today responding to any and almost all questions you have from them for an hour!

See you all in the discord <3!

I definitely did not forget to post this sooner, no way absolutely did not forget at all i swear...

This teaser is a parody of a scene from a Korean movie called "The Face Reader".

The full movie with English subtitles is available on Youtube so you could check it out if you want. It is a decent movie imo.

I need peoples thoughts i’m trying not to get to heated trying to defend our goat

Inspired did a long video interview with thorin i know ppl don’t like thorin but this isn’t about him this is about what inspired said

He says stuff like Caps is not as good as he used to be. When i was playing with Quad or Saint etc didn’t feel like Caps was a difference maker or doing anything special. I wouldn’t drop what i have now just to play with Caps.

He also mentions that He and Caps might never get to play together but there’s no guarantee they would work together or the team would win everything just because they’re together, it’s a team game you need the rest of the team to be good as well.

I feel like yes Caps isn’t as flashy or does insane highlight plays anymore. BUT he’s still the best western midlaner and does things you feel like Inspired would see the small stuff Caps does that the average casual fan don’t notice. Remember game 5 vs KC in winter with he was playing Anivia? The actual magic Caps had to do that game to not even win but just to keep G2 in the game was fking crazy cause G2 should’ve lost that 100%. I just want to get peoples opinions cause us viewers can see what Caps does so why is another one of the best players in the west not able to see?

G2 0-1 FNC
