MADE IN BRAZIL has moved on from Agustin "nzr" Ibarra, allowing the Argentine player to explore opportunities elsewhere while still under contract. The decision comes after just a few months with the team, as MIBR looks ahead to Stage 1 of the VCT Americas League.
nzr joined MIBR in November 2024 as the team's in-game leader (IGL), reuniting with former teammate aspas after their short-lived stint on LEVIATÁN earlier that year. However, history repeated itself, as the duo once again failed to find long-term success together.
Despite the brief tenure, nzr contributed to MIBR’s offseason efforts, playing for their Game Changers squad at the Americas Spotlight Series and helping the main roster secure a second-place finish at the Tixinha Invitational.
MIBR's revamped roster delivered the organization’s best-ever performance in the Americas League, securing a third-place finish at Kickoff after a remarkable lower-bracket run. The team fell just one match short of qualifying for Masters Bangkok.
However, their tournament began on a rough note with a heavy opening loss, prompting a mid-event leadership change. nzr was relieved of IGL duties, with artzin taking over as the team’s shot-caller for the remainder of the event.
Following his benching, nzr shared a message thanking his teammates as he begins exploring new opportunities. Meanwhile, MIBR must now find a replacement for their initiator before VCT Americas Stage 1 kicks off on March 21.
After this change, MIBR’s Current Roster is:
🇧🇷 Arthur "artzin" Araujo
🇧🇷 Eduardo "xenom" Soeiro
🇧🇷 Gabriel "cortezia" Cortez
🇧🇷 Erick "aspas" Santos
🇺🇸 Daniel "fRoD" Montaner (Head Coach)
🇧🇷 Iara "Iara" Rodrigo (Analyst)
