Coldzera Responds to Recent MiBR-exit Rumors

Ross Deason

Marcelo ‘coldzera’ David has told the CS:GO community to “stay calm” after recent reports linked him with a move away from Made in Brazil (MiBR).

Coldzera, one of the best CS:GO players of all time, only joined SK Gaming along with Gabriel ‘FalleN’ Toledo, Fernando ‘fer’ Alvarenga, Ricardo ‘boltz’ Prass, and Jake ‘Stewie2K’ Yip a month ago, but has been rumored to be on the verge of another transfer.

On July 9, flickshot.fr reported that internal relationships within the MiBR camp had reached boiling point and that coldzera was considering leaving the team after the FACEIT London Major in September, but the 23 year-old Brazilian has assured his followers on Twitter that he’s going nowhere.

In a Tweet that has been translated by Reddit user _Xerts, the flexible player is reported to have said:

“Ugh! I took a plane, two submarines, ran for 10 hours, and I still had to swim to get to California! I’m looking at everything that everyone is saying about [me leaving MiBR] and I don’t understand! I’m still in MIBR 😊”

The two-time Major Champion added: 

“I’m going to stay in Mibr, stay calm 😁”

The rumors surrounding coldzera’s future with MiBR surfaced just days after the team’s disappointing 7th-8th place finish at ESL One: Cologne 2018.

Coldzera, FalleN, fer, Stewie2K, and boltz had been struggling in their latter days with the German organization SK Gaming, but were expected to return to form at MiBR, a historical Counter-Strike brand from the early 2000s that was revived by Immortals specifically for coldzera and his team-mates. 

However, they didn’t get off to a good start in their first tournament, losing to FaZe Clan and BIG at the $300,000 event in Germany.

MiBR has also been heavily linked with Cloud9’s Tarik ‘tarik’ Celik. According to reports from DBLTAP, the North American player could be on the brink of replacing Ricardo ‘boltz’ Prass on the starting roster.
