Eternal Fire Sign regali: Romanian AWPer Joins Amid Major Roster Rebuild

Eternal Fire have officially announced the signing of Romanian AWPer Iulian “regali” Harjău, marking another key step in the organization’s ongoing Counter-Strike 2 roster rebuild.

The 23-year-old joins as a free agent after leaving FlyQuest, where he spent the 2025 season before being benched at the start of 2026. Despite the roster change, regali maintained solid individual form, recording a 1.11 rating during his time with the Oceanic squad.

The move follows several days of speculation and was confirmed via Eternal Fire’s official social media:

“Rumors are true. Welcome, @regali_cs!”

The signing comes immediately after Eternal Fire made significant structural changes to their lineup. The team benched Volodymyr “Woro2k” Veletniuk and moved EMSTAR to the academy roster, signaling a clear shift in direction.

According to team representatives, the changes were driven by internal issues:

“The team chemistry isn’t quite there yet. We want to make the roster a bit younger and establish a dynamic game plan.”

With regali stepping in as the primary AWPer, Eternal Fire now look to stabilize a role that has seen instability in recent months.

regali returns after FlyQuest exit

regali became a free agent following the expiration of his FlyQuest contract. Shortly after his departure, he publicly confirmed his availability:

“I am free agent and open to offers as of now :D.”

During his tenure with FlyQuest, regali was statistically one of the team’s more consistent performers, even though the organization ultimately opted for a roster change, signing João “story” Vieira as his replacement.

Eternal Fire’s international rebuild continues

The addition of regali is part of a broader international rebuild that began earlier in 2026. Eternal Fire have been actively reshaping their roster with multiple signings:

rigoN and Woro2k joined in January

DemQQ was added shortly after

jottAAA arrived on loan from Aurora

With regali now in the lineup, the current core includes:

rigoN

DemQQ

jottAAA

regali

However, the roster is still not finalized, with at least one rifler position yet to be confirmed.

What regali brings to Eternal Fire

regali is known for his aggressive AWPing style and mechanical consistency. His 1.11 rating in 2025 highlights his ability to perform even in unstable team environments.

For Eternal Fire, his arrival solves a critical issue:

A dedicated AWPer role

More stable mid-round presence

Higher individual firepower

The key challenge now will be integrating him into a system that has struggled with consistency and chemistry.

What’s next for Eternal Fire?

While the regali signing is a strong addition on paper, Eternal Fire are still in transition. The organization has made it clear that this is part of a longer-term rebuild focused on:

Younger talent

Better team chemistry

A more structured playstyle

The coming months will determine whether this latest iteration of the roster can finally deliver consistent results in international CS2 competition.
