Counter Strike 2: Legendary Finnish former AWP-er allu officially returns to ENCE as coach..

Finnish Counter Strike 2 (CS2) club ENCE announced on Thursday via its official X (Twitter) account that former Finnish legendary AWP-er allu will be returning to the team as a coach.

According to ENCE's official statement, allu will immediately replace Whitey, who recently left the team, as the new head coach.

This announcement means that allu will return to ENCE after four years, beginning his fourth stint with the club.

Regarding his decision to return to ENCE, allu stated through his personal social media account: "It feels great to be back at ENCE. This is where the best memories of my Counter Strike professional esports career were born, and returning here means a lot to me."

"I won't pretend I know everything as a coach. This is a completely new challenge for me, and I know I still have a lot to learn. But I'm incredibly excited about it."

"I competed at the highest level of this game for many years. I hope to bring that experience and knowledge to this team and to the next generation of players at ENCE."

allu previously played for ENCE as a AWP-er across three stints between 2013 and 2022. 

During his third spell with ENCE after leaving FaZe and OpTic, allu helped the team win two championships and reach a Major grand finals, though the team ultimately failed to win despite being considered favorites.

allu last played as a player at the Elisa Open Season 12 in April.

Interestingly, his team CSDIILIT lost to ENCE in the grand finals.

On the other hand, ENCE added that the roster promoted from their academy team in April is "still under evaluation," and allu has joined the evaluation process. The team is currently ranked 143rd in the VRS world rankings.
