Who Are The New Ambush Players?
The announcement ends the Danish organization’s brief hiatus from the competitive Counter-Strike world. Previously, they had a French-only squad with players like Christophe “SIXER” Xia and like David “devoduvek” Dobrosavljevi. Ambush disbanded the roster in October.
Mikkel “Maze” Sparvath will take charge of the new-look Ambush side as their in-game leader. This is not Maze’s first rodeo with the Danish outfit as he previously had a four month stint at the team in 2021. Milen “milky” Iliev is another player who will return for a second spell under the Ambush banner.
Maze has had an underwhelming season so far. He briefly led Let Us Cook before unsuccessfully trialing for Sprout. suNnY is another player in the new Ambush team, who is seeking to redeem his career. The rifler’s resume highlights his experience of playing for A-listers like MOUZ and ENCE. His unsuccessful spell with the TITANS in 2022 has significantly damaged his reputation, so he will be desperate to rediscover his greatness at Ambush.
doto never played for Ambush before, but he will have a familiar teammate in milky. The duo had previously played together at Adaptation. He will be coming on the back of a six-month HAVU spell.
NaToSaphiX tried to assemble his own team earlier this year, but he decided to put that idea on hold to join Ambush. He will be playing for an organization for the first time since standing in for Complexity in 2021.

“After several stints with various teams, I have finally found a team that sticks together,” Maze feels the bond between the Ambush players is something special. “We have set ambitious goals for both the team and the organization, and I look forward to continuing our work to achieve them in the future. As a leader, I will continue to motivate and inspire the team to do their best, and I am confident that we can achieve great results together.”
“It’s been an exciting time for our organization with our new merger [with Preasy] and our new line-up,” Zouheir Chreih, CEO of Ambush, said about their new CSGO unit. “We’re proud to have secured so many talented players and experience in our team, and I’m happy to lead the team forward. I’m determined to take Ambush By Preasy to the top of the esports world and give our fans the best experience.”
