B1ad3 joins Gambit as coach on loan

24-7-2018 18:57

Andrey "⁠B1ad3⁠" Gorodenskiy has become the new coach of Gambit, who have loaned the Ukrainian from FlipSid3, the Russian organization announced.

The veteran has been loaned to Gambit until the end of September. Over that period, the Kazakh-Russian squad will attend four offline tournaments: IEM Shanghai, DreamHack Masters Stockholm, the FACEIT Major — where the team will compete in the New Challengers Stage —, and ESL One New York.

This will be B1ad3's second foray into coaching, as he previously stood behind HellRaisers (who then featured Mihail "⁠Dosia⁠" Stolyarov) at CS:GO's fourth Major, DreamHack Winter 2014.

B1ad3 has been loaned to Gambit until the end of September

Gambit have played without a coach ever since Andriy "⁠Andi⁠" Prokhorov departed the team in early June. With B1ad3, they will attempt to improve their results after last-place finishes at their last two big tournaments, ESL One Cologne and StarSeries i-League Season 5.

It's unclear what the move means for FlipSid3, whose last offline tournament took place in January (ELEAGUE Major New Challengers Stage). Since then they only took part in online competitions which amounted to no success, as they failed to make it through various qualifiers and were relegated from ESEA MDL in Season 27, in March.

Gambit's lineup now looks as follows:

Mihail "⁠Dosia⁠" Stolyarov
Dauren "⁠AdreN⁠" Kystaubayev
Abay "⁠HObbit⁠" Khassenov
Rustem "⁠mou⁠" Telepov
Nikolay "⁠mir⁠" Bityukov

Andrey "⁠B1ad3⁠" Gorodenskiy (coach, on loan)

LOOL NICE xaxaxa Gambit back to top1 ????? xaxaxaxax

OMG I waited this move since gambit lost to windigo at zotac cup masters eu finals

2018-07-24 20:10

And I also waiting -dosia +seized as igl cuz he was not bad IGL in Gambit, anyway seized better than dosia as igl and as player too

2018-07-24 20:12

Dosia without igling plays a huge role in the gambit team. I think if h0bbit still plays like shit they should remove him and readd siezed who shared the same roles as hobbit.

2018-07-24 20:38

no . Hobbit is top .

Gambit will improve!! Go mir

As a coach i think he can help them so much.. this guy is a legend and one of the best in game leaders in cs history

i really hope they improve. loved their run at the major (even tho it was luck involved)

pezdaaaaa

ya ebuuu

Finally, gambit tier1 again.

very good coach!

Markeloff :"(

nice pickup, gl to both parties

Nice move to Gambit. Blad3 help in mid game calls, gl

Well good move, but they lost so much with this -Zeus -Kane move... at least a whole year, already.

easy major?

nice move

make gambit great again?

The only question why on loan? There is no better coach in cis rn

2018-07-24 19:04

there is no better coach than b1ad3 in general.

2018-07-24 19:05

2018-07-24 21:09

2018-07-25 07:30

haha

They took major with Kane ;)

2018-07-25 09:30

hihi

2018-07-25 09:34

And what blade achieved as coach so far to make such conclusions?

2018-07-27 15:42

he taught flamie electronic and s1mple how to play lel

2018-07-27 15:57

thats how they do it in Gambit it seems, every new person that they take is on loan initially :D

2018-07-24 19:07

Gambit does everything on loan for some reason

and they don't sign people and don't let them waste their career on contracts after playing 1 month

2018-07-24 21:14

That is interesting. Best of luck to the Kazakh guys.

Dosia and mir not kazakhs

2018-07-25 07:31

kek

He should have replaced Dosia on the active roster imo. They need an smart igl, they've got enough firepower.

You underestimate how absolutely useless b1ad3 is ingame.

Yea, but he's a great IGl. And they have enough firepower without him fragging as much.

This is what I have been saying for a long time. With enough firepower, a team can afford to have b1ad3 as an IGL because the other players with make up for his lack of frags. IGL'ing and Coaching are very very different. Coaches can't do anything until their team takes a pause whereas an IGL can speak to their team all the time. That is the reason Flipsid3 never took pauses. They always had their IGL talking to them during round start and end times. He is the best mind in CSGO to date and still looks like he will be for a long time.

2018-07-24 20:24

I kind of hope he's gonna return as a player.

2018-07-24 20:46

I always thought that b1ad3, s1mple, electronic, GuardiaN and markeloff would have been an insane team. Lots of experience, maturity and firepower with the mind of b1ad3.

2018-07-24 21:07

2018-07-24 21:24

Unluckily he played with unmotivated shits like markeloff, worldedit and waylander.

2018-07-24 21:17

don't know why dosia is always treated like a dumb player

2018-07-24 20:08

I didnt say that he's dumb, they could replace mir aswell, but if we just go by stats, Gambit needs 4 good fraggers if they would bring in blad3.

2018-07-24 20:19

that's fair, although i think dosia is a necessary player, he does the dirty job soloing tough bombsites. Besides, mou, adren, hobbit and mir is enough firepower to me bro, blad3 as coach is fine for now

2018-07-24 20:21

Yea, but i was saying that they dont have a proper IGL right now and that they have benn struggeling since Zeus left.

2018-07-24 20:44

good luck legend

rly nice idea ez major

oh shit only -mir +good IGL now and this lineup could work

Even though I'm a huge Dosia fan, - Dosia +Ange1 is probably the best move right now, but keep dosia on bench in case mir doesnt work out

no way ange1 joins gambit. he has a really good team atm

2018-07-24 19:14

Bring back 2013 virtus.pro only - fox and kucher + adren and hobbit Guardian has nothing left in faze, ange1 wants to be back with the boys

2018-07-24 19:20

the question is if ange1 would join, but I agree Dosia needs to go

I cant imagine ange1 not wanting to link back up with his old mates, unless there's bad blood over the split from HR. I think Dosia could still work but they need to try other things given their recent results.

2018-07-24 20:20

KICK DOSIA FFS

HAHAHAHAHA LMAO

Good luck

b1ad3 should have stayed as a coach since that time. although u can't blame him, major run with Shara was good one tho. but now its been a while he shouldve been a coach like atleast since 2017

everyone has been waiting for this so long!!!! only blad3 to navi would have been better but i'm so excited to see gambit at the major

2018-07-24 19:16

Ahah RIP

2018-07-24 19:17

HA! GOOOOOOT'EEEEEM! Well,FeelsSoGoodMan.GJ To Gambit

GL Gambit!

nothing can save gambit, only good in-game leader

2018-07-25 09:21

lol

2018-07-24 19:25

thats serious?

Although I think Gambit has alot more to work on, this is certainly a step in the right direction.

Heres the thing: blad3 has a history of picking up new talent and training them into quality players. Not only that, but he was one of the most tactically solid igls in the scene a la gob b If he takes a role thats very player interactive, he could turn whomever gambit chooses into a solid IGL, and help out a young player should they pick one up. I'll be very interested to see what he manages to accomplish, but he definitely has what it takes to turn the team around or at least stop this freefall in form Gambit lost their identity as a tactical team when zeus left, and hopefully blad3 can help them bring that back

Blad3 is good for gambit they need some tacktics and Blad3 will gime it them

2018-07-24 19:31

lets see what blade can do with mir hobbit and adren :)

2018-07-24 19:33

Wow, finally putting Blad3 to proper use. Guy is smart as hell, would love to see Gambit turn around with him gl Blad3!

lol gambit top5

2018-07-24 19:34

THE BEST DECISION EVER. You can't find better coach than B1ad3 with his tons and tons of experience and brain.

2018-07-25 09:03
