Media: KEi gives insight into The MongolZ benching Senzu

After countless community driven theories and conspiracies tried to decode The MongolZ's recent roster move which shocked the Counter-Strike world, Mongolian caster KEi gives his insight into why Senzu was benched which was claimed to be backed by a one to one conversation between the two. On the podcast FreezeTime - The Esport Talk Show KEi speaks about what happened behind the scenes to prompt The MongolZ into benching one of their top performers. The discussion about Senzu starts from 34mins 30 seconds.

In the podcast, KEi claimed that Senzu himself decided to step back from the competitive space for a while and it was not The MongolZ who took it on themselves to bench Senzu, which aligns well given Senzu's firepower within the team. As the podcast went on, KEi even mentions that Senzu links his "inactivity" to burnout. In 2025, The MongolZ have played sixteen LAN events with Senzu travelling non-stop across three different continents.

Concluding the Senzu topic, KEi alleges that Senzu's competitive Counter-Strike career is far from over and the young Mongolian star would return to the competitive space in the near future, maybe even in The MongolZ's colors. The information KEi provides about Senzu's benching is a direct translation from Mongolian to English and could contain a degree of deviation from the original Mongolian transcript.
