G2 bench nexa

The Serbian player will not return with G2 in the second half of 2024.

G2 have announced that Nemanja “⁠nexa⁠” Isaković is being removed from the starting lineup. The 27-year-old had been a fixture of the team since he joined from OG in November 2023.

nexa was brought on as a supportive element for the start trio of Nikola “⁠NiKo⁠” Kovač, Nemanja “⁠huNter-⁠” Kovač and Ilya “⁠m0NESY⁠” Osipov, but in the end could not hold on to a place in the starting five.

The Serbian rifler was a part of the team that won G2’s only trophy of the first half of 2024, IEM Dallas, a tournament that Rasmus “⁠HooXi⁠” Nielsen missed and where NiKo took over the IGL mantle with Jake “⁠Stewie2K⁠” Yip as a stand-in.

Even then, ending the event with a 0.85 rating put him in the crosshairs and now, after a 0.81-rated BLAST Premier Fall Finals to end the season, nexa has been cast aside.

In their announcement, G2 stated that they are currently in the process of helping nexa find a new team. The player himself also chimed in, saying that he is open to offers in any role.

G2 currently has the following roster:

Bosnia and Herzegovina Nikola “⁠NiKo⁠” Kovač
Bosnia and Herzegovina Nemanja “⁠huNter-⁠” Kovač
Denmark Rasmus “⁠HooXi⁠” Nielsen
Russia Ilya “⁠m0NESY⁠” Osipov

Poland Wiktor “⁠TaZ⁠” Wojtas (coach)

Serbia Nemanja “⁠nexa⁠” Isaković (benched)
