French professional Counter-Strike: Global Offensive<\/a> player Richard “shox” Papillon is working alongside other players to build a roster that will participate in the BLAST Paris Major.<\/p>\n

This will be the return of shox to the competitive scene, as the player has been benched since October last year with his European team Apex. This move will also mark his return to the French region.<\/p>\n

Shox is pursuing this project alongside retired CS:GO player Edouard “SmithZz” Dubourdeaux, his former teammate from G2 Esports. This will more likely be the return of the veterans. <\/p>\n

According to CS:GO reporter neL, both returning players will be taking on the tournament alongside three other young players. For the initial stage, SmithZz will also be competing while showing the young players the ropes and the nitty gritty before being moved to an executive role, leaving room for a fresh and new player.<\/p>\n

“Shox & SmithZz are teaming up again with 3 young players! My nostalgic heart can’t take it,” he tweeted.<\/p>\n

“SmithZz will help the team at first, then move in staff role when needed, and let his place to a younger player.”<\/p>\n
