magic — a CS2 esports team

magic is a Russian esports organization officially founded on February 11, 2026. The core of the roster had already been playing together since December 2025, and after a string of good results, an organization was formed around the lineup. In just a few months, the team climbed up from the bottom, played in plenty of tier-two and tier-three events, and even won one of the CCT European Series tournaments.

The team continues to push for spots at top events and challenge strong opponents.
