The replacements in the Natus Vincere roster, No[o]ne, and SoNNeikO are players of the organization officially.

Yesterday evening it became officially known that Vladimir No[o]ne Minenko and Akbar SoNNeikO Butaev joined the Dota 2 Natus Vincere team. As previously reported, the players left the AS Monaco Gambit organization and thus refused to perform at WePlay AniMajor 2021 Dota 2 in Kyiv.

New players have replaced Bogdan Iceberg Vasilenko and Andrey ALWAYSWANNAFLY Bondarenko as part of the born-to-win.

Such events happened for several reasons. Initially, the first was a small split in NaVi, as a result of which Victor GeneRaL Nigrini left the team, replaced by Roman RAMZES666 Kushnarev. From the players’ comments, it became known that RAMZES666 wanted to play together with No[o]ne, but the NaVi players gave Bogdan Iceberg Vasilenko a chance and decided not to change the team’s mid lane player.

As a result, the second DPC season for NaVi was a failure. As a result, the team did not get for WePlay AniMajor 2021. This situation was the reason for the lineup changes.

As for AS Monaco Gambit, Stanislav 633 Glushan and Artem Lorenof Melnik will take SoNNeikO’s, and No[o]ne’s places in Gambit at the Major.

Players have already commented on this situation

Andrey ALWAYSWANNAFLY Bondarenko:

«Streams return)».

Andrey is already considered a Dota 2 veteran and really wanted to get to The International. Still, unfortunately, most likely, he will not be able to do this since the last chance for a player to get to the coveted tournament is to continue playing for NaVi.

Akbar SoNNeikO Butaev

«I’m back»

This will be the fourth time in his career that the player will play for NaVi.

Bogdan Iceberg Vasilenko

«Thanks, @natusvincere, for the time spent in this organization !!!!»

Initially, it was seen that Bogdan’s game worsened after he was informed that Vladimir No[o]ne Minenko was being considered in his place. The young player could not cope with his thoughts and with his nerves.
