Betclic Sell Hypex to GamerLegion; Polish AWPer Exits Following Roster Shake-Ups
Polish esports organization Betclic has officially sold AWPer Milan “hypex” Polowiec to GamerLegion, following a trend of recent roster changes. The deal was confirmed in mid-September 2025. This move comes just weeks after Betclic sold rifler Jakub “jcobbb” Petruszewski to FaZe.
Who is hypex & What He Did at Betclic
-
hypex is a 21-year-old Polish sniper (AWPer) who played with Betclic for almost a year. His HLTV profile shows a rating of around 1.15 over recent months.
-
At PGL Bucharest (a “Big Event” in CS2), he played against top teams such as FaZe, The MongolZ, Aurora, etc., and posted a rating near 1.08 in that tournament.
-
His performance at Betclic helped establish him as one of the more promising Polish talents, particularly in sniper roles with high clutch potential.
The Sale: When, Where, and What It Means
-
On September 13, 2025, Betclic officially announced the sale of hypex.
-
The buyer: GamerLegion, a European organization. They signed hypex to take over the AWPing duties. Meanwhile, Jeremy “Kursy” Gast (previous AWP/primary sniper for GamerLegion) is being benched following the acquisition.
-
The change is effective after FISSURE Playground 2, with hypex set to begin competing for GamerLegion starting from the next major event—ESL Pro League Season 22 Stage 1, which begins on September 27 in Stockholm.
Context: Betclic’s Recent Roster Changes
-
As mentioned, hypex’s departure follows Betclic’s earlier sale of jcobbb to FaZe, a rifler with rising visibility.
-
Betclic’s current roster (after these moves) includes players like Demho, Prism, and wizzhehe, among others.
-
The departure of two key firepower players in quick succession suggests Betclic is undergoing a major rebuild, needing to replace both sniper and rifler roles in its lineup.
Implications for GamerLegion & the Polish Scene
-
For GamerLegion, acquiring hypex is a boost—he brings strong AWPer skill, recent LAN experience, and likely will help them stabilize sniper performance, especially after putting Kursy on the bench.
-
For hypex, this is a chance at a “tier-1” (or at least higher-profile) stage. Being in a roster with international exposure and competing in Pro League is a step up from his previous position.
-
It also highlights how strong Polish CS2 talent is increasingly drawing interest — organizations are scouting players from Poland to fill sniper or star roles in bigger teams.
Caveats & Unanswered Questions
-
The identity of the “tier‐1” team that bought hypex from Betclic was initially undisclosed until GamerLegion’s later announcement. There was some speculation in community sources before confirmation.
-
It remains to be seen how hypex adapts to his new team environment, including synergies, role expectations, and pressure in bigger matches. Moving sniper roles often comes with high expectations.
