niki1 leaves Windigo; v1c7oR joins on trial

Nikolay "niki1" Pantaleev has stepped down from Windigo's roster, with Viktor "v1c7oR" Dyankov joining the team on trial, it has been revealed.

The announcement was made on Twitter by Windigo CEO Maksym Bednarskyi, who added that the player requested to be released from his contract due to personal reasons.

The news comes as a huge surprise as the Bulgarian team had signed for Windigo only days ago after spending weeks on the lookout for an organisation to represent.

nik1 leaves Windigo

The former Outlaws team made their first appearance under Windigo, a Ukraine-based organisation, at the Europe Minor, in Bucharest, where they went out last of their group following defeats to Envy and GODSENT.

Viktor "⁠v1c7oR⁠" Dyankov had been assessing his options since the disbandment of MK, Bulgaria's most successful CS:GO squad, whose notable achievements include an ESEA Global Challenge title and second-place finishes at the Minor leading into MLG Columbus and at Copenhagen Games 2016.

Windigo's roster now looks as follows: 

Bulgaria Teodor "⁠SPELLAN⁠" Nikolov
Bulgaria Georgi "⁠SHiPZ⁠" Grigorov
Bulgaria Kamen "⁠bubble⁠" Kostadinov
Bulgaria Nikolay "⁠pNshr⁠" Paunin
Bulgaria Viktor "⁠v1c7oR⁠" Dyankov (trial)

Bulgaria Anton "ToH1o" Georgiev (coach)

First Nkl is shit and he is not playing cs professional anymore.Second there is problem with dreamer , he has a VAC which dont allow him to go to Minor/Major and they will need a stand-in which will ruin them.Third there are 2 awps , I personally don't think that it will be problem because Bubble is good with rifles too and can be secondnd awp so ye.

He said that he left for "personal reasons". After all you don't know his personal life outside counter-strike. Plus he is 26 years old, he might wanna just stop playing the game and get a more reliable job.

The typical Bulgarian answer as always :) only looking at the short term effect and not the long term. You realize this job is super risky because there's no guarantee what's gonna happen with the team next week from now and that after you are done playing which is around 30 years of age for most players (some even retire at age 24) you will not have any experience in the job market outside counter-strike which no one cares about especially in Bulgaria.
