Lucas “lux” Meneghini appears close to rejoining forces with Vinicius “n1ssim” Pereira on the Legacy roster, according to information shared by Dust2.com.br. The pair previously competed together under paiN’s banner at the Copenhagen Major and are now poised to replace Gabriel “NEKIZ” Schenato and Bruno “b4rtiN” Câmara, with the latter having been sidelined in November, provided negotiations conclude successfully.
The transition involves several challenges, particularly regarding leadership duties. With NEKIZ stepping down, the question of who will assume the captaincy arises. lux, as suggested in the report, is the most likely candidate to take on the leadership role. Known for his aggressive rifling style, lux is actively seeking a new team following his reported benching by paiN after the Shanghai Major. Talks are reportedly ongoing between paiN and Legacy over finalizing his move.
n1ssim’s potential transfer presents fewer complications. With his contract with Sharks set to conclude at year-end, the player has been inactive on the Sharks bench since April, after paiN’s attempt to acquire him fell through earlier this year. This makes his addition to Legacy relatively straightforward.
Legacy’s updated lineup, if negotiations are successful, is expected to include Eduardo “dumau” Wolkmer, Bruno “latto” Rebelatto, Guilherme “saadzin” Pacheco, Lucas “lux” Meneghini, and Vinicius “n1ssim” Pereira. They would continue under the guidance of coach Olavo “chucky” Napoleão. Meanwhile, both NEKIZ and b4rtiN would remain on Legacy’s bench, awaiting further developments.
