Head Coach for @FNATIC CS2 🇱🇻
Riga, Latvia 🇱🇻
Joined October 2011
Champions of Fragadelphia! 🏆 🇺🇸 What an achievement for everyone involved. Against all odds, we’ve qualified for the Budapest Major - and in what a fashion. 🇭🇺 If you look beyond the next game before you play it, performance will always suffer. Our motto this tournament was

Thank you, Cai. Wherever you go, people feel your presence, your energy, positivity, and commitment to the team were truly special. I’ve really enjoyed working with you and wish you nothing but the best ahead @cyphercsgo_ .
Ahead of PGL Bucharest this weekend, we sat down with RossR to talk all things Fnatic CS from CAC Shanghai, to keeping the same line-up for Bucharest & beyond to Fear as an IGL. Check out the full video below 👇

People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. To get people to work hard for you, you need to show them you want them to achieve career success for their sake.

We made mistakes that were fully in our control - missed opportunities that could’ve turned the game. That’s how it goes sometimes. This game is made of tiny details, and today those inches went the other way. Still, I’m proud of our tournament - wins against paiN and TYLOO,

Two bad days at the office. No excuses - not the level we expect from ourselves. We’ll take the hit, learn from it, and come back stronger.

Another final, but didn’t deserve to win today - too many crucial mistakes and then it’s hard to come back from. Still, we’re proving to ourselves that we are a hard team to beat. My boys showed lion hearts, and there are clear things from this tournament we can improve. The

4 straight LAN finals shows consistency, but not the result we wanted this time. The boys showed very impressive mentality all weekend. Focus next 👏 Thank you @KinguinNet and all hosts for great hospitality 🔥

Feels good to secure first place in Romania 🇷🇴 after losing the last LAN final in Sweden 🇸🇪. Long, exhausting days and I’m proud of the mentality my boys showed - it’s not easy to maintain that. People underestimate these “smaller” LANs, but every team is competitive and you

You feel good when you win, you feel bad when you lose - that’s sports. Missing out on Budapest hurts, but we also qualified for Shanghai and can’t win them all. Every loss takes us a step further and teaches us massively. @cyphercsgo_ has brought great energy since joining, and

Honoured to take this next step. No shortcuts, no noise - just work. Coaching isn’t just about tactics - it’s about building people, culture, and standards that last. The title changes, but the work doesn’t. Still a long way to go, but I’m proud to lead the way. #alwaysfnatic
