beAst exits k23

5-8-2009 19:45

According to Gameinside.ua, k23 captain Alexander "beAst" Yakovlev has decided to quit the team.

This decision comes right after k23's success at Arbalet Cup in Almaty, where the Kazakh side were crowned champions following a dramatic final against KerchNET.

Yakovlev has now reportedly stepped down as player due to personal issues, leaving the team one man short ahead of ASUS Summer 2009.


k23 have now the following line-up:

Kazakhstan Malik "N1ck3L" Sualirov
Kazakhstan Anvar "Anv1k" Nassyrov
Kazakhstan Dauren "Adrenaline" Kistaubaev
Kazakhstan Mikhail "MihaO" Makashev

Hope k23 will rise even stronger with the new addition but as #3 states, losing the IGL is always bad. Which player might be able to fill the spot?

Thats really sad for a line up going very well. :( But Arbalet Cup masters displayed some nice talent Kazakhs have. The way Sky snatched de_train from k23 in group play midst close encounter was a surprise.
