FlyQuest announced the signing of Corey “nettik” Browne, who joins the majority-Australian Counter-Strike 2 roster as the final missing piece following the departure of Christopher “dexter” Nong.<\/p>\n

After a rough start to the 2025 Counter-Strike 2<\/a> season, FlyQuest opted for some roster changes, leading to the benching of a long-standing in-game leader.<\/p>\n

The news came after FlyQuest got eliminated from the ESL Pro League<\/a> Season 21 Play-In stage, where they managed a 2-3 record and got knocked out by TYLOO in the decider match.<\/p>\n

Just a day after announcing dexter’s benching, FlyQuest revealed nettik as the newest signing, welcoming the 21-year-old to the position previously held by Joshua “INS” Potter, who takes over the captaincy.<\/p>\n

“I’m excited to step up as IGL. I’ve always had the capabilities, and I can’t wait to build a system with Erdenetsogt “erkaSt” Gantulga and bring out the best in everyone,” said INS.<\/p>\n

“Adding Nettik brings in some serious firepower. He’s one of the best riflers in Oceania.”<\/p>\n

Nettik joins FlyQuest after a seven-month stay with TALON, who he joined after leaving Rooster in July 2024.<\/p>\n

With TALON, nettik has not found much success, as the team attended just four tournaments. Most notably the CCT Season 2 European Series #13, where TALON crashed out in last place.<\/p>\n

At the end of 2024, TALON also participated in Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024: Asia-Pacific RMR, finishing fifth-sixth with losses against FlyQuest and Lynn Vision Gaming.<\/p>\n

Despite TALON’s struggles, nettik produced impressive performances, averaging a 1.16 performance rating, continuing to make a name for himself after an impressive stint with Rooster (1.27).<\/p>\n

The titleless yet individually successful tenure ended earlier this month when the Hongkongese team pulled the plug on their CS2 division. <\/p>\n

Even though nettik got signed by FlyQuest, he will play out one final tournament with his former TALON esports teammates, the Dfrag Invitational 2025, set to run between March 20-23.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old rifler will make his official debut for FlyQuest at Intel Extreme Masters<\/a> Melbourne 2025, set to kick off on April 21.<\/p>\n
