On June 24, 2026, the French organization 3DMAX announced the suspension of Pierre "Ex3rcice" Boulin. The reason is the disastrous first half of the year: the team was eliminated in the early stages of IEM Krakow, PGL Cluj-Napoca, and ESL Pro League Season 23, which deprived them of a spot at the IEM Cologne Major. Currently, 3DMAX is only ranked 30th in the Valve rankings.
Ex3rcice was the last remaining player from the original DBL PONEY project from 2021 — he went through the HEET stage (2022) all the way to 3DMAX. His departure marks the end of an era in the history of French CS.
Replacing Ex3rcice is 24-year-old Kursy — a rifler with experience in GenOne and GamerLegion. The updated roster: Lucky, Maka, Graviti, misutaaa, Kursy.
The first test in the new lineup will be the XSE Pro League 2026 in Guangzhou (July 1-12), where 3DMAX will attempt to restart the season.
