Gambit acquire academy team

23-2-2017 20:19

Gambit has announced the creation of an academy team, which the organization will use to promote young talent.

Gambit, whose main team just retained its Legend status at the ELEAGUE Major in January, has expanded its operation by acquiring an all-Russian squad of youths as an academy team.

The project will be headed by Rustam "TsaGa" Tsagolov and Egor "fuRy^" Morin, coach and manager respectively, who will be in charge of taking the reins and guiding the youngsters.

Gambit hope to foster budding talent in their academy team

Gambit Academy will be seen playing ESEA Open Russia and CEVO Season 12 Intermediate, and their goal is to make it to the CIS Minor.

Gambit is also looking to send the team to play in European competitions, hinting at the possibility of the Academy team flying out to Denmark for Copenhagen Games 2017.

Gambit Academy's full roster is as follows:

Oleg "⁠neathz⁠" Kornev
Aleksei "⁠El1an⁠" Gusev
Nikolay "⁠kkt⁠" Danilenko
Ruslan "⁠spyn⁠" Kalakov (captain)
Artem "malik666" Arkhipov

Rustam "TsaGa" Tsagolov (coach)
Egor "fuRy^" Morin (manager)

Surely its going to be a big thing in the future right?

2017-02-25 12:03

I don't think so.

Should've went for a kazakhstan team since their main team would be nothing without adren.

Nope, Zeus + Hobbit is what brought them success.

Take adren out of the team and they have no star player.

But Gambit didn't find significant success as a team until this move happened. The team would also be nothing had the roster move never occurred.

2017-02-23 20:25

idc what u say, adren is the best player by far and is almost carrying them every game, yes hobbit is good and zeus great igl

2017-02-23 20:43

Zeus for sure, but AdreN is their most powerful and stable player by a fair margin. HObbitt is an improvement from electronic for sure, but the team would've never got anywhere without AdreN in the first place.

They've never had electronic, before hobbit they had spaze

Can't choose who is more worthy among the Gambit, everyone is doing mad some matches, mou though a little bit weaker than others. Since Dosia stepped up a bit, I also expect same from mou.

2017-02-23 20:34

Who did you expect to join from Kazakhstan, zArlans? I think latter are on salary, why would you leave your main org that provides you with everything?
