OverDrive about Virtus.pro
David "n0rb3r7" Danielyan may also be leaving the team soon, as reported by Alexey "OverDrive" Biryukov on his Telegram channel. The insider also commented on a potential conflict within the team that might have occurred during BetBoom Dacha Belgrade Season 2.
"The situation with Xoma is quite amusing. It’s obvious that key decisions in VP are made by 2-3 core players, and Xoma’s removal was more the players’ decision than the management’s. I wonder whether Xoma’s invitation to the team was even discussed with the players beforehand. From what has happened and the way they treat him, judging by the videos, it seems unlikely. We can assume that Xoma was trying to influence the captain's ideas too much, which led to his removal. Besides, they have PASHANOJ in reserve, who, being a close friend of Jame, is unlikely to interfere with any plans Jame and electroNic may want to implement," Biryukov stated.
"Along with Xoma, n0rb3r7 might also leave the team soon. Several players, including some surprising names, have already been invited to replace David in VP. Naturally, not everyone is eager to join this lineup," he added.
"As for the video, if such a situation had occurred in a ‘normal’ team, the players would either have faced heavy fines or been benched by the coach. With all due respect, Jame and electroNic need to realise that after VP, there might not be any Tier-1 teams willing to take them on," the insider concluded.
It’s worth noting that on 3rd September, Pavel "PASHANOJ" Legostaev was appointed as the head coach of Virtus.pro’s CS2 roster, replacing Andrey "XomA" Mironenko, who had joined the team in June this year.
