He later played for some relatively unknown stacks including brutaLity, OPENGAME and TioDeco before transitioning to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive in April 2014 with KaBuM! e-Sports. LUCAS1 has since played for nine CS:GO teams, which includes a few high-profile names in Tempo Storm, Immortals, Luminosity Gaming and MiBR.<\/p>\n<div class=\" embed-twitter\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"pt\" dir=\"ltr\">SEJA BEM VINDO, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LUCAS1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@LUCAS1<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Assista completo em:<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/IrlcKms0Uu\">https:\/\/t.co\/IrlcKms0Uu<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/BQ4kOMW5rS\">pic.twitter.com\/BQ4kOMW5rS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Imperial Esports (@imperialesports) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/imperialesports\/status\/1294783707941867520?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 15, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>LUCAS1 joined MiBR in June 2019 as a part of a swap deal involving Jo\u00e3o &#8220;felps&#8221; Vasconcellos. The latter returned to MiBR in October after Luminosity disbanded their roster, which was shortly after LUCAS1 the former was offered a permanent contract.<\/p>\n<p>LUCAS1 achieved a plethora of notable tournament placements at MiBR, including top-four finishes at Intel Extreme Masters XIV Chicago, V4 Future Sports Festival Budapest 2019, CS:GO Asia Championships 2019, Esports Championship Series Season 8 North America, and ESL Pro League Season 10 Americas. <\/p>\n<p>Towards the end of 2019, however, MiBR started to underperform and finished only fifth-sixth at the Esports Championship Series Season 8 Finals and ninth-12th at the ESL Pro League Season 10 Finals. Those results ushered in additional roster changes and the axing of LUCAS1 in favour of Ignacio &#8220;meyern&#8221; Meyer, <a href=\"\/meyern-leaves-mibr-to-sign-with-9z-team\/\" title=\"More CS:GO esports news\" >who recently moved to 9z Team<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>After parting ways with MiBR, LUCAS1 stood in with FURIA at the Intel Extreme Masters XIV World Championship: North American Qualifier and helped them to a seventh-eighth finish.
