In Their Own Story

On June 23, 2018, coldzera, Fer, FalleN, Stewie2K and boltz were signed by Made In Brazil, with a lineup that had only formed shortly before moving to the new team, with boltz and Stewie2k replacing TACO and felps. Without much success, tarik joined the team and boltz left the team, but even still with this lineup, coldzera and his team only won the 2018 ZOTAC Cup Masters, and did not achieve expected levels of performance. Then, on December 21, 2018, the organization announced the return of TACO, felps and zews. With this line, coldzera stood out individually, but that was not enough to yield great achievements as his team did not work collectively, but this individual highlight earned him the tenth position in the top 20 best players in the world in 2018, according to HLTV.org. On July 12, 2019, it was confirmed by MIBR that coldzera would go to the team bench and zews would provisionally take his place, eventually playing the Major in Germany. On September 25, coldzera officially left MIBR and was transferred to FaZe Clan.
