Sources: Osman123 set to join SuperMassive in the TCL

SuperMassive have found their new jungler for the TCL Summer Split. According to sources close to Sheep Esports, it will be Osman "Osman123" Meriç Çince, who will replace Duncan "Skeanz" Marquet as the French player heads to SK Gaming in the LEC, as previously reported by Sheep Esports. This marks the second signing for the Turkish team following the arrival of Korean midlaner Lee "Mask" Sang-hun, which was also reported a few days ago.

Originally, SuperMassive was set to sign Doğukan "113" Balcı. But, as reported at the end of May, Turkish authorities arrested thirteen individuals — including Ahmed Faruk Karslı, owner, majority shareholder, and chairman of both PAPARA (the team’s main sponsor) and SuperMassive — as part of a wide-ranging investigation into illegal gambling, money laundering, and organized crime. As a result, both parties broke their verbal agreement for financial reasons, forcing SUP to find a new jungler. Since then, 113 has joined Barça eSports in the SuperLiga, and Osman123 is the one who will be joining SUP for the Summer Split.

Eternal Fire have now lost a third player during this offseason. After the departure of Korean toplaner Park "DnDn" Geun-woo also to SK Gaming and Turkish AD Carry İlker "Ruep" Bilen to Beşiktaş Esports, it's now jungler Osman123’s turn to leave the team. He is set to join another TCL contender SuperMassive, further reshaping the landscape of the Turkish league ahead of the Summer Split. The team had a strong Winter Split, making it all the way to the finals before falling 3-2 to SUP. However, things took a sharp turn in the Spring, as they collapsed from a second-place finish to ending the split in 8th — dead last in the TCL.

More than once, Osman123 has come close to winning a title. He began his career in the Turkish academy scene, playing for Galatasaray, Beşiktaş, and Istanbul Wildcats, before making his TCL debut in Summer 2023 with Eternal Fire, the team finished fourth. In 2024, he joined Beşiktaş’s main roster, teaming up with Korean midlaner Jeong “Mireu” Jo-bin. The roster reached the TCL Grand Final against SUP, narrowly missing out on the title with a 3-2 loss—but still earned his first-ever qualification for the EMEA Masters.

At EMEA, Beşiktaş delivered a standout performance: they placed second in a tightly contested group with Geekay, Los Heretics, and Zero Tenacity, then edged out SK Gaming Prime and BDS Academy with back-to-back 3-2 wins, before falling 3-1 in the final to Eintracht Spandau, led by Tristan “PowerOfEvil” Schrage.

In 2025, Osman123 returned to Eternal Fire, reuniting with Ruep and welcoming Korean toplaner DnDn from the LCK. The roster quickly established themselves as title favorites, dominating the Winter Split regular season and sweeping SUP 3-0 in the upper bracket final. The trophy looked within reach, but Papara turned the tide when it mattered most and took the series in the Grand Final. The Spring Split, however, was a major step backward for both Winter finalists—Eternal Fire and SUP both ended the split at the bottom of the standings.
