G2 seeks loan offers for academy player tAk to enhance development

G2 Esports is putting the word out: their academy player Vilius “tAk” Keserauskas is available on loan. The organization wants the 21-year-old Lithuanian rifleman to gain experience through competitive play outside the G2 Ares ecosystem.

The announcement was made public on June 24, 2026.

The case for loaning tAk

G2’s manager Petar “peca” Markovic described tAk as vocal, versatile, and hungry.

tAk has been part of G2 Ares, the organization’s Counter-Strike 2 academy team, since July 2024. Born on December 21, 2004, he’s now at a natural inflection point, having recently graduated from university and ready to commit more fully to professional play.

His career prize earnings sit at approximately $8,960.

The MIBR precedent

G2 isn’t improvising here. The organization explicitly pointed to the loan of another academy player, kl1m, to the Brazilian squad MIBR as the template for this move.

For tAk specifically, a loan could address the gap between academy-level play and the demands of professional Counter-Strike 2. A loan arrangement at this stage allows him to go all-in on professional development without the academic commitments that may have limited his availability previously.

G2 has roughly $8,960 worth of competitive results from tAk so far. The search for loan offers is now open.
