EZ4ENCE originated as a tribute to the Finnish professional Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team, ENCE, following their miraculous underdog run at the IEM Katowice Major in 2019. The phrase was popularized by the Finnish band The Verkkars, whose catchy song of the same name became an anthem for the team and the broader CS:GO community. While initially used to celebrate the team's surprising success, the meme evolved into a versatile expression of confidence or irony within the gaming world. It is frequently seen in Twitch chats and social media whenever a Finnish player performs well or whenever ENCE participates in a high-stakes tournament, symbolizing both national pride and the unpredictable nature of competitive esports.
