The Counter Strike scene has missed the presence of ‘papabiceps’ for a while now. After being released by Virtus.Pro, the Polish stalwart had turned into more of a regular streamer.
But, Pashabiceps’ playing career is far from over and it looks like the biceps will be action again, with the veteran leading a group of Polish stars under the name Youngsters to qualify for Loot.Bet Season 3.
Youngsters took part in the 4-team Closed Online Qualifier that also featured Heretics, Copenhagen Flames and SJ. The Pashabiceps-led stack faltered in the Upper Bracket Final to Heretics over three maps.
But, they then beat Copenhagen Flames in the decider to lap up the second of the two spots available from the Closed Online Qualifier. Interestingly, OKOLICIOUZ, who was recently benched by Virtus.Pro, topped the charts for Youngsters, averaging a rating of 1.22 over 7 maps.

Apart from OKOLICIOUZ and Pashabiceps, the Youngsters stack consists of tecek, who played for VenatoreS and x-kom among others and is well-known within the Polish scene.
Szejn and tudsoN round out the current roster. The young duo are relatively inexperienced in the scene but are good prospects.
There have been other iterations of this roster since it’s inception in May, 2019. It will be interesting to see if this is just another temporary stack or whether the roster sticks to the current lineup beyond Loot.Bet Season 3.
