HEET near JACKZ signing – Report

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:

France Alexandre “⁠bodyy⁠” Pianaro
France Aurélien “⁠afro⁠” Drapier
France Thomas “⁠Djoko⁠” Pavoni
France Pierre “⁠Ex3rcice⁠” Bulinge
France Audric “⁠JACKZ⁠” Jug

France Matthieu “⁠matHEND⁠” Roquigny (coach)
