Genburten

Noyan Ozkose, better known by his online alias and gaming handle Genburten, is an Australian/Turkish professional Apex Legends player currently playing for Team Falcons.

Early career and Reignite
Of a Turkish background, he and his father are immigrants from Turkey; his father has supported his esports career. In 2021, Genburten signed with Reignite South. Genburten's teammates on Reignite included fellow Australians Rick "Sharky" Wirth and Rhys "Zer0" Perry. The trio played in the APAC South region. They would win the APAC South region's 2022 ALGS Pro League.

Genburten was unable to play in the Year 2 Split 2 Playoffs LAN tournament, due to COVID-19 regulations. Genburten tested multiple times for COVID-19 around the time of the tournament, and although he received one negative test, he would test positive on the first day of the tournament. DarkZero were still able to win, though without Genburten and instead with British loan player "jmw".

On 4 July 2022, Genburten left Reignite, along with Sharky and Zer0.

DarkZero
After leaving Reignite, the trio signed with the American organization DarkZero Esports. The team won the 2022 ALGS Championship LAN, held in Raleigh, North Carolina. Sharky would then leave the team, with Rody "Xynew" Geissle filling the roster spot. Genburten and DarkZero won the 2023 ALGS Split 2 Playoffs. With the victory, Genburten and Zer0 became the only 3-time LAN championship winners in AGLS history.

During the Year 4 North American Pro League regional finals, Genburten was one of two players to be affected by hacks. Genburten received a "wallhack", revealing the location of other players through walls and terrain. As the match was occurring on a private lobby during a high-profile match, the hack was considered unprecedented by media outlets. NME noted that Genburten quickly alerted his teammates and left the match, "presumably to avoid some sort of penalty for cheating in an official tournament match". Genburten detailed that he left after his teammate "Sikezz" suggested to and also stated that he feared his "career was over" because of the incident. With its competitive integrity compromise, the competition was postponed and held at a later date in secret, with Genburten and DarkZero placing in sixth.

At the 2024 Split 1 Playoffs LAN, Genburten and DarkZero finished in second, runner-ups to Reject Winnity.

Team Falcons
Shortly following the 2024 Split 1 Playoffs LAN tournament, it was announced that Zer0 and Genburten would be leaving DarkZero. They joined forces with Phillip "ImperialHal" Dosen to form a "superteam" for the Split 2 season. It was initially unclear if the three would play under the DZ banner, though on 28 May, it was announced that the trio signed under the Saudi organization Team Falcons. The org is believed to have connections to the Al-Saud royal family. The three are set to play together at the 2024 Esports World Cup's Apex Legends tournament.

Apex players choose between mouse and keyboard or controller inputs; Genburten plays on the latter, being considered by video game media outlets one of the best controller players in the sport.
