After spending the last three years in an international roster, Audric “JACKZ” Jug is reportedly set to return to a French team.
JACKZ is on the verge of signing with HEET to replace Lucas “Lucky” Chastang on the active roster, a Thursday report from 1pv.fr’s neL says.
The 30-year-old is on the chopping block in G2 alongside Aleksi “Aleksib” Virolainen according to several reports, with former Complexity and 100 Thieves star Justin “jks” Savage and Copenhagen Flames in-game leader Rasmus “HooXi” Nielsen earmarked to replace them.
JACKZ quickly found a new team after his reported benching in G2
JACKZ‘s move to HEET would see him return to a French-speaking team for the first time since G2 transitioned into an international roster in the latter half of 2019 with the signings of CR4ZY duo Nemanja “nexa” Isaković and Nemanja “huNter-” Kovač.
The ever-positive rifler has history with the core of the HEET squad, having been there when the team was created at the beginning of 2021 under the organization-less name DBL PONEY.
JACKZ was benched in G2 at the time, but after a few months he was recalled into the main roster to replace Kenny “kennyS” Schrub, which saw DBL PONEY bring in Nathan “NBK-” Schmitt for a short period before eventually landing on Pierre “Ex3rcice” Bulinge as a permanent member later in the year.
Since then, the team found an organization to represent after playing without support for nearly a year and reach as high as a #18 peak in the HLTV.org team ranking in early 2022.
With JACKZ‘s addition, HEET would look as follows:
Alexandre “bodyy” Pianaro
Aurélien “afro” Drapier
Thomas “Djoko” Pavoni
Pierre “Ex3rcice” Bulinge
Audric “JACKZ” Jug
