B8 — COUNTER STRIKE 2

I started playing when I was 7 years old, inspired by watching my dad play CS. Ever since then, the game has consumed my life. I got my hands on a laptop and found myself playing CS for 3-4 hours every day. In 2020, after reaching a 3500 ELO, I underwent trials and joined NaVi Junior, where I honed my skills and eventually moved up to the main roster for a solid 6 months. Following that, I made the decision to pursue my goals together with B8 Esports.

I first started playing CS 1.6 at the age of 7 and played it until I was 15 because I had a weak computer. After that, I began going to computer clubs to play, learn, and improve. Eventually, I got my own PC and began practicing hard. Then, I received an invitation from NAVI to join their academy team, where I met npl and headtr1ck. I went on to play for various teams, and finally, I got an offer from B8, which I couldn't refuse.

I started playing CS when I was very young - it quickly became more than just a hobby. I grinded my way up to a high FACEIT ELO and that opened the door to Team Spirit Academy Black, where I got my first real taste of professional CS2. After several months developing my game there, I got the call from B8 Esports. Joining a team at this level, with players like npl and kensizor, is something I couldn't turn down.

Hi there! I’m from Chervonohrad. I first got into CS when I was around 12 or 13, after trying CS: Source at a friend’s place. But I started playing CS:GO seriously at about 15. With my friends, we formed a stack and managed to make it onto HLTV through open qualifiers. Just two months later, Ivan, the coach, added me as a friend and asked if I’d like to try out for their team.

I’m from Ukraine, but I was born in Italy and lived there for over 8 years. I got into CS after playing Dota. My friends mentioned CS:GO while we were still playing Dota, and over time, I found myself enjoying it more and playing it a lot. As for joining B8 for the second time — it was simple: the coach invited me, and that was that!

I started with CS in 2013, but I wasn't much into competitive play. I was more about observing and trying to grasp the game. That's when I decided to pursue coaching, without ever stepping into the player's shoes. Before joining B8 Esports, I worked at an analytical agency specializing in CS. Prior to that, I was also assisting the coaching staff at Complexity, gaining some valuable experience along the way.
