The first CS:GO lineup to compete under the UoL banner will consist of Oliver “kzy” Heck, Markus “maRky” Reitenbach, Andre “Kirby” Kempa, Christian “crisby” Schmitt, and Denim “DeniMM” Ameti. The organization announced its roster on Twitter today in an odd video that shows its players sporting their jerseys alongside fluffy unicorn stuffed animals and with other related accessories.

The core of Crisby, kzy, and maRky previously played for German organization EURONICS over the past few years. They’re joined by DeniMM and Kirby, two former up-and-comers who competed for DIVIZON and Playing Ducks.

“After five successful years in League of Legends, we are no longer part of the EU LCS,” UoL GM Vivien Mallant said in a statement to HLTV. “This allows us to invest into new titles next to our LoL-team in the German scene. Counter-Strike has been one of the biggest esport titles in the past and now the timing is perfect for us to expand our brand into this community. We hope we can bring a lot of fun, pink and partners into the scene but of course success will be the main priority for us. We are looking forward to our journey in CS:GO.”

The new quintet is representing UoL in Season 30 of ESEA Premier, which is the division right below the ESL Pro League. The former EURONICS trio earned the Premier spot by placing top four in the relegation qualifier with the help of Adam “kolor” Domoszlay and former GODSENT star Andreas “znajder” Lindberg, before adding DeniMM and Kirby.
