MOUZ Team — a CS2 esports team
#2
About the team
MOUZ was founded on 24 March 2002 in Berlin, and from day one it was all about Counter-Strike. The org grew out of the German lineup mystical lambda, and later became one of the most recognisable tags in Europe. In October 2021, the club refreshed its branding and locked in the shorter name MOUZ instead of the old mousesports. Today, the HQ is in Hamburg, Germany, and the project’s biggest strength is finding young talent and getting them ready for LANs against the very best.

MOUZ roster history
Over the years, dozens of players have worn this tag. In some eras the lineup leaned on experience; in others, it bet on youth. The main idea was almost always the same: roles matter more than names.
Achievements of the first roster
In the early 2000s, mousesports played Counter-Strike 1.5 and 1.6. As early as 2002, the team took bronze at WCG, and by the end of that season it had two third-place finishes at big events, for a combined total of around $11,000 in prize money.
The loudest trophy of that early era was the win at Intel Extreme Masters Season II World Championship in 2008, worth $50,000. Later, mousesports also picked up titles at European LANs, including GameGune 2009.
The 2019–2021 roster
In 2019, the club built a new five around ropz and chrisJ, adding IGL karrigan, AWPer woxic, and the young frozen. The roles clicked, and the team hit form fast.
Late 2019 was remembered for a win streak that included ESL Pro League Season 10 Finals, cs_summit 5, and CS:GO Asia Championships. Back then, MOUZ was strong at reading mid-round situations and wasn’t afraid to win off pure grit.
After that, the roster shifted. In 2020, woxic was benched and Bymas joined the team. In 2021, they signed dexter as the IGL and acoR as the AWPer. That period set the stage for the next wave of young CS2 talent.
