Electronic did not know about the departure of Perfecto and the Hobbit, but Jame knew two weeks before the announcement

Electronic was unaware of the other changes in the Cloud9 roster.

"I was surprised by the rumors about OverDrive. I didn't know they wanted to leave the team. It was just a shock to me," commented Virtus.pro newcomer Denis "Electronic" Sharipov on the changes in the Cloud9 lineup.

In turn, Jame commented on Electronic's move to Virtus.pro.

"I always knew Electronic wanted to play with me. I knew about his transition to the team two weeks before the announcement.

I don't know how we will play, but we will start playing a new CS. Electronic will change our game, especially against teams from the top 5 in the world."

On April 21, Alexey "OverDrive" Biryukov wrote about Ilya "Perfecto" Zalutsky and Abay "Hobbit" Khasenov leaving Cloud9. A day later, the club moved both esports athletes to inactive status.
