FURIA's female Counter-Strike roster transitioned to VALORANT on August 17. Per HLTV, the article ties the move to the collapse of the women's CS competitive scene — specifically referencing player ASTRA's earlier statement about "female CS falling apart and the lack of tournaments coming up."
The transitioning roster
- Karina "kaahSENSEI" Takahashi
- Izabella "izaa" Galle
- Gabriela "gabs" Freindorfer
- Bruna "bizinha" Marvila
- Lucia "lulitenz" Dubra
Context per HLTV
- FURIA fe competed in Counter-Strike for six years
- Won the ESL Impact League Season 7
- The ESL Impact circuit was "put on an indefinite hold at the end of 2025"
- Multiple organisations have abandoned their female rosters since
The article contains no verbatim quote from FURIA leadership explaining the transition decision, and does not address what happens to support staff or coaching personnel.
