– Weren't you also invited to NAVI at one point?
– Yes, it was back during the Dat Team days. Seized went to NAVI, and he called me too. At that time, I went on vacation, and they set a condition for me – I had to come straight to the boot camp before the tournament, and train there. But I refused, I didn't want to leave on vacation. Honestly, back then I didn't believe in NAVI at all. Now I understand that there were good prospects, and the club could have given me a lot. And when I was young, I played very well and didn't see anyone who could be better than me.
And then Seized offered me to join, and I just said, "No, thank you." With thoughts in my head: "Who are NAVI? They are not even players. I can beat them 1 in 5. It's not my level at all." But then I regretted it when I realized that the organization still offers a lot of opportunities.
Well, then there was another opportunity to play for NAVI, later on. But I won't talk about that. There I messed up again at the moment, – Worldedit recalled.
