Team Falcons Analyst trochu Leaves CS2 Roster Amid Ongoing Staff Changes

Team Falcons continue their Counter-Strike 2 staff reshuffle after analyst Maximilian “trochu” Troha officially announced his departure from the organization. The move follows several recent structural changes around the Falcons CS2 project as the team prepares for upcoming tier-one events in 2026.

Team Falcons part ways with analyst trochu

Maximilian “trochu” Troha confirmed that he has left Team Falcons by mutual agreement to focus on a new project, which he plans to reveal soon.

In his farewell message, Troha described his time with Falcons as an important chapter of his career and thanked the organization, players, and staff for their trust and support.

Troha had been part of Team Falcons since April 2024, initially joining as an assistant coach before transitioning to the analyst role in January 2026.

This marks the latest staff change for one of the most ambitious CS2 projects in the scene.

The analyst’s exit comes shortly after Falcons made another notable change in their support structure.

Falcons psychologist steps back from daily work

On February 6, 2026, sports psychologist Lars Robl parted ways with Falcons in a day-to-day capacity by mutual agreement. He remains connected to the organization only as an advisor.

The decision followed public discussion around Falcons’ internal training routines.
Falcons star AWPer Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov addressed the rumors directly, stating:

“Nobody forbids us anything… Lars is one of the best psychologists.”

This clarification helped calm speculation but highlighted how closely Falcons’ internal structure is being watched.

Falcons CS2 rebuild: long-term project under pressure

The departure of trochu also fits into the broader narrative surrounding Team Falcons’ CS2 rebuild.

After the EU RMR disappointment

In late 2024, Falcons made major roster moves after failing to qualify for the Major through the Europe RMR. The organization publicly called the result “disappointing and heartbreaking” and promised significant changes heading into 2025.

Those changes eventually led to one of the most high-profile projects in CS2, featuring superstar signings and major investment.

NiKo on joining Falcons

In a recent interview, Nikola “NiKo” Kovač spoke about his move to Falcons and the sacrifices required to build a title-contending lineup. He explained that role adjustments were necessary to maximize the team’s chances of winning trophies.

This context shows how every staff and roster decision around Falcons is part of a win-now strategy.

What’s next: BLAST Open Spring 2026

Despite the internal changes, Falcons remain active on the competitive calendar.

The team is confirmed to compete at BLAST Open Spring 2026, scheduled for March 18–29 in Rotterdam with a $400,000 prize pool.

The event will feature top CS2 teams and represents an important test for Falcons’ evolving lineup and support staff.
