SPELLAN parts ways with Phoenix

Teodor "⁠SPELLAN⁠" Nikolov is no longer a member of Phoenix, the player has announced on social media.

In a Twitlonger, the 21-year-old announced he has stepped down from Phoenix following a period of instability since the departure of Helvijs "⁠broky⁠" Saukants last month, with the Bulgarian player citing a subsequent decline in mood and motivation in the team as the main reason for him leaving.

SPELLAN had been a part of Phoenix since the team was dropped by Epsilon back in July, with the player continuing to compete alongside his long-term teammates, Kia "⁠Surreal⁠" Man and Joey "⁠CRUC1AL⁠" Steusel.

SPELLAN is no longer a member of Phoenix

During his time with Phoenix, SPELLAN and his squad competed in a number of tournaments, with the side most notably missing out on the MSI MGA 2019 trophy after a narrow loss to Gambit Youngsters in the grand final.

The Bulgarian player will reveal more about his journey in the coming days, where he will "start fresh elsewhere".

Phoenix now have:

United Kingdom Kia "⁠Surreal⁠" Man
Netherlands Joey "⁠CRUC1AL⁠" Steusel
United Kingdom Thomas "⁠Thomas⁠" Utting (trial)
Albania Flatron "⁠juanflatroo⁠" Halimi (trial)

After some time thinking about whats the best for me , i've decided to leave Phoenix and start fresh elsewhere. I've got some insane moments with CRUC1AL and Surreal and i want to thank them for that! I can say at one point we were showing really good cs together and were able to beat some decent teams and earn some achievments and it felt great. Anyways after we lost broky something felt wrong all the time and we couldnt do much as the mood and the motivation was not there anymore imo. I wish nothing but the best for the guys from Phoenix , they are all great individuals. News about me in the next few days <3

Played with him a few times. Always found him to be arrogant and rude. I doubt he's much of a teammate and I'd figure him to be prone to tilting. This is how it seemed to me. This tho was around the time when the YouTube series with the kids trying to make it in those CS teams every week was running and he was/had been a part of it. Maybe that played a role with him overflowing on the yellow liquid department. He aims/aimed well but CSGO is a team based game and you should be able to fault yourself and build on.

AXAXAXAXAXAXAXAX 0/8. TenZ got fcking benched from Trash9, no way that OG would pick TenZ over someone else. TenZ got benched because he was toxic & argued a lot. dexerto.com/csgo/csgo-tenz-reveals-why-h.. "I was benched because… I was the only person arguing with people. I felt like our style wasn’t good and I didn’t believe in the system” he said." OG will most likely be: Poizon (Or Jamppi, we will see soon) Valde Aleksib ISSAA +1 more & that will most likely be k0nfig etc.
