seized makes return in Cyber Legacy

Denis "⁠seized⁠" Kostin has joined Cyber Legacy, returning to competitive play after several months of inactivity.

The 25-year-old Russian made a name for himself in Natus Vincere, representing the Ukrainian organization from 2013 to 2017 and winning nine notable LANs during his stay. Stints with Vega Squadron and Gambit followed, but with limited success, after which seized had been without a team.

seized had been teamless since Vega Squadron disbanded in August

His new challenge comes in the form of Cyber Legacy, a Russian esports organization that entered the DOTA 2 scene at the start of this year. Their CS:GO team have recorded just two matches covered by HLTV, both of which being losses in SECTOR: MOSTBET Season 2, with only three players on the roster ahead of the addition of seized.

According to CIS insider Aleksei "⁠OverDrive⁠" Birukov, the final piece of the puzzle will be 17-year-old Timur "⁠clax⁠" Sabirov, previously of EXTREMUM.

*Following the release of the article, Cyber Legacy have unveiled their full lineup, including clax.

Cyber Legacy are now:

Ukraine Danylo "⁠nat1ve⁠" Bakin
Russia Mikhail "⁠tricky⁠" Krutov
Russia Aleksandr "⁠glowiing⁠" Matsievich
Russia Denis "⁠seized⁠" Kostin
Russia Timur "⁠clax⁠" Sabirov

seized maybe isn't the most flashy player, but his experience and everything will be enough to do good in this team, for me he is an ok choice. However, who is tricky, who is glowiing, and who is nat1ve? Never heard about any of those players. Idk. why seized is joining this team, for me he deserves better.
