Bad News Eagles was a professional Counter-Strike team based in Kosovo, known for competing in both Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) and later Counter-Strike 2 (CS2). Notably, the team operated without an official organization, making their rise and consistency in top-tier tournaments especially impressive.

ESL Challenger at DreamHack Melbourne 2023: Runner-up finish to Movistar Riders, taking home $20,000.
BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023: Achieved 12th–14th place after a tough loss to FaZe Clan, earning another $20,000.
RES Adriatic League Season 2: Crowned champions after a clean 2:0 win over Zero Tenacity, earning $4,566.42.

gxx- (Genc Kolgeci)
