A high-stakes game change
According to people familiar with the matter, Monaco eSports is already a heavy hitter in the eSports universe, having previously hosted major events like the League of Legends Finals and the Monaco Gaming Show.
However, with the addition of Veno and Merstach, they’re not just upping the ante; they’re changing the game. Veno, hailed as a master tactician, brings finesse and intellectual depth to the Monaco lineup. His nimble gameplay and ability to read opponents have won him acclaim as one of Fortnite’s most skilled players.
Further, per the release, Merstach offers a perfect counterpoint to Veno’s style. Known for his aggressive approach, he doesn’t just defeat opponents; he annihilates them. His marksmanship has earned him a reputation as a player to be feared, making him the ideal counterpart to Veno’s nuanced strategies. As Louis Ducruet, co-owner of Monaco eSports, exclaims:
“Their talent, dedication, and passion for the game align perfectly with our philosophy and ambitions.”
The “chemistry of champions”
With both players under 20, Veno and Merstach bring skill and youthful vitality to the team. They join British player Stablecherry, who had already added a competitive edge to Monaco eSports earlier this year.
