MIBR weigh up adding stand-ins for BLAST Premier, Flashpoint - Report

13-10-2020 21:52

The Brazilians are in a race against time to find three players before their next tournaments.

MIBR could resort to fielding stand-ins to complete their roster for BLAST Premier Fall Series and Flashpoint 2, as first reported by Globo Esporte and confirmed by HLTV.org. The Brazilian team are depleted to just two players after the organisation removed Epitacio "⁠TACO⁠" de Melo and Fernando "⁠fer⁠" Alvarenga from the active lineup, and Gabriel "⁠FalleN⁠" Toledo stepped down from the roster in disagreement with the changes.

Vito "⁠kNgV-⁠" Giuseppe and Alencar "⁠trk⁠" Rossato are the remaining players in MIBR's starting lineup, with the team scheduled to return to action at the end of October in BLAST Premier. Earlier this month, HLTV.org revealed that MIBR are one of the North America-based teams who are locked in talks with tournament organisers with a view to finishing out the season in Europe.

kNgV- is one of the two remaining members in MIBR

MIBR have already made enquiries about the possibility of securing temporary deals, but no progress has been made as organisations seem reluctant to part with their players during such a busy period of the year.

BLAST is yet to announce if it will revise the schedule of the Fall Series to accommodate the changes that it is planning to implement. Rather than splitting the teams into two regions, BLAST wants to gather them all in one tournament, as it did in the Spring Series, in which matches were played at a studio in London. Flashpoint 2 will take place between November 9 and December 6, with $1 million on offer and 12 teams in attendance.

2020-10-14 22:43

the shit has already been done, they should disband already and let mibr just as a legendary 1.6 team, but that's unlikely because they get so much money from delusional fans

2020-10-14 14:46

the problem is even if they disband right now. the legendary 1.6 mibr name is no more everyone will mostly remember the joke csgo team

2020-10-15 05:06

Cold not gonna leave FaZe

I know, but it would be nice to watch this team again!

2020-10-14 14:06

Somos mibr 🔥🔥🔥

memebr really wants to play events with 3 stand ins? I mean I was all for kicking fer and taco but it seems to be a very dumb move to kick 2 players (fallen leaving wasn’t planned so I keep him out for now) and not having a solution to replace when you have to play events Meme org

I imagine (and also there are some rumors) that they tried to talk with a few players but every deal went sour after FalleN stepped down.. 'oh, play with fallen and kng? ok, i'm down for it' 'oh, fallen is not playing? hmmm i'll get back to you, sorry'.

2020-10-13 21:58

Good Point Still says A lot about the state of the mibr brand when Brazilians don’t wanna play for it, they really destroyed the name

2020-10-13 22:39

They do want to play, just not as stand in and not with the core falling apart like that. At the time, kNg's positioning was suggesting that him too was about to quit. I'd also reconsider my position of joining not knowing how things would workout.. The way I see it, MIBR has 2 options that is to buy out a decent roster or to rebuild like C9, I don't think that hiring single players one by one will make good players have interest in this since money is not an issue for them and their name/carrer is more important than playing for a world wide org that is showing day by day to be more of a mess. This reminds me of pasha, dosia and others talking about the end of the legendary VP roster.. :(

i think it makes most sense for mibr to buy out BOOM. sucks for trk and kng because they certainly were not the problem but as you said, i dont really see them getting a good lineup when picking single players. still immensely stupid to even consider playing 2 events with 3 standins IMO. they wont go far either way and they even have to travel to Europe for these events. on a side note, in flashpoint there's like two teams right now that have a complete roster. FP2 seems to be even more laughable than FP1 so far 🤡

2020-10-14 09:48

I think Boom wouldn't sell. They (org) seems pretty confident and ambitious, but yes, from MIBR's perspective that would be the best move indeed. They are charismatic and felps/boltz could make peaces between MIBR and it's fans, since felps alone is more loved than the org hehe... I agree with what you said about FP1/FP2.. which makes me wonder if a really good pug team couldn't win this FP2.. considering how things are running right now, it wouldn't be that much of a surprise kkkkk

2020-10-14 14:09

Felps was a mibr player until recently, BOOM bought him like in august or september idk. It would be pretty stupid to sell a player then buy him back

2020-10-14 21:00

if it works it's not stupid, hehe.. but i really don't see this happening to be honest.

2020-10-14 21:03

MIBR still exists?

Buy up boom roster already

2020-10-13 22:53

At this point sell the spot for flashpoint lol stop wasting ppls time

Yo le noob, But who'd even want to buy it lmao?

2020-10-14 11:19

we're waiting for day nows for news and hltv for the first time ever posted a filler with no actual new info :( sad day

MIBR worst management.

we still talk about mibruh?

Finally the best team is back

wake up

Disband.

yeah bro the best post i see . gaules its dont toxic forget

2020-10-13 22:13

????? Why Boltz and Felps would leave for a worse team?

2020-10-13 23:01

Immortals is completely lost, lmao. They have no clue what to do. Guys were trying to hype this dead team with clips in twitter and such and now they have nothing to deliver. Do they still think the blind brazilians fans followed the brand and not the players? Lol.

The brand died the moment it left Paulo Velloso hands

+Kscerato +Yuurih +arT Nice top 40 team right here

top 1 team -kn +HEN1

+Hen1 +Vini Top 1 NA for sure

only cares about money

MIBR was strong in 1.6 and the brand are still strong, even with non-brazilians managing with the "business". The decision about continue play and not selling the brand is that MIBR earns money even in a bad moment. They also have great teams in other games like R6.

2020-10-13 22:04

mibr is back

kNg vSm latto LUCAS1 trk /nak coach

Just rebrand as the Pinch Hitters. It'd both temper expectations and also be accurate.

What were they doing all the time

imagine if they took some portuguese players

Mutiris Rmn fox

2020-10-14 00:56

MIBR are almost as big of a joke as North at this point

I would MUCH rather play for north right now. MIBR is a total shit show, at least North is still a respectable org, their team just sucks.

2020-10-13 22:09

this isnt fair to kng and especially trk. Seriously, either buy the boom core of Boltz, Felps, and the IGL or stop wasting their damn time. On some real shit, this man KNG got a whole family now and yall bullshitting him. TRK didn't ask for any of this. Im not even an mibr fan but omfg this is so annoying.

just disband already and release the players... pls

Try to get this new talent . youtube.com/watch?v=OoSTzis0zfI

2020-10-13 22:11

disband alrdy

2020-10-13 22:14

Pick BOOM

What standins they gonna use lol Shoowtime and gaules? Ahaha

2020-10-13 22:21

ahahahahahaha

2020-10-13 23:03

Just pick up BOOM

lul why just disband

2020-10-13 22:22

I thought kNg said that he disagreed with the roster changes where MIBR removed TACO and fer. When I heard that, I thought he would do what FalleN did and step down / ask to be benched. How are they going to find 3 stand-ins in such a short period of time? This whole thing is a shit show between the organization and the players. MIBR's name is tarnished, the CSGO team hasn't had any great results this year, and now there is bad blood between the organization and the players.

2020-10-13 22:23

they are not gonna play

2020-10-13 22:26

So MIBR will have to forfeit their spot in any events due to having an incomplete roster?

2020-10-13 23:10

fer, fallen and taco contracts are about to expire, the some doesn't apply to kng, trk.

2020-10-13 22:30

I figured that was the case for those 3, but wasn't sure about kNg and trk.

KNG is shit, mibr is his only chance to stay relevant, FalleN could do that because he is falleN... I bet you that even if his IGL skills are not the same anymore, most teams would want him as a solid awper and 2nd caller.

I think kNg is a solid player overall. He's not special, but like most players he has his moments. FalleN's attitude / behavior may deter other organizations from picking him up as good as he is.

2020-10-13 23:11

What FalleN did? Stop living on Thoorin and RL bubble, everyone loves FalleN in the scene...From legends to rookies.

2020-10-13 23:13

the should FINALLY make a team around european players as well,keep kngv and trk but for example add players like bubski and a couple of others until you make a final decision

The name is Made in Brazil. So only Brazilian players.

2020-10-13 22:33

This. MIBR with non-Brazilian players wouldn't make any sense.

stewie and tarik weren't brazilians.

2020-10-13 23:53

stewie, tarik, brax and meyern are not brazilian and have played for mibr

2020-10-14 00:21

but the core was. And they are very dear to the Brazilian community

2020-10-14 02:44

you said "only brazilians", not "brazilian core". Plus, when brax was stand in they had an American core, so...

2020-10-14 03:13

You are probably baiting, but anyways. MiBR had non br players several times, in GO and in 1.6

2020-10-14 07:41

Yeah, Vesslan and elemeNt did represent the name well

2020-10-14 21:07

Just kill the mibr brand and go international with immortals

just disband pls BR CS KEKW

Please disband already for the love of god you can't even compete with tier 2 NA or tier 3 EU what is the point of playing? I just don't how orgs keep teams like these around, they are a money pit, no one likes them and they can't even win tier 4 tournaments fuck off the game please.

2020-10-13 22:28

Just drop these Brazilians and add the ex-C9 team. They’ll get a 5th in Cooper easily.

2020-10-13 22:31

I hope you are trolling and know what MIBR stands for lol.

2020-10-14 01:06

MIBR isnt the actual Brand, its Immortals after all

2020-10-14 07:10

Yeah, but they won't go by Immortals. The owner bought the rights and everything for MIBR so you bet he's going to stick with it .

2020-10-14 10:33

MIBR is a bigger name than immortals no matter if they bought them and changed the name to Immortals. It will always stay MIBR cuz the whole BR cs scene started from that org.

2020-10-15 02:49

ok. I won't watch their matches though.

2020-10-13 22:32

so these are the news kng said there were coming? fuck that

2020-10-13 22:41

lol. Or just disband.

2020-10-13 23:05

y'all so funny making these "who" and "disband" omg i'm so pissed off lol

2020-10-13 23:08

they going to pickup in YeaH roster because they own both...

2020-10-13 23:18

if i remember correctly, fallen, fer, taco owns YeaH, not MiBR or Immortals.

2020-10-13 23:19

hmm you say that i think you're right... after a quick search immortals own: Immortals Los Angeles Valiant[2] MIBR[3] OpTic Gaming Los Angeles[4] Gamers Club[5]

2020-10-13 23:21

yes, and i think coldzera owns YeaH too,

2020-10-14 17:12

for god sake change the name of the team back to immortals

2020-10-13 23:20

So they can ruin another brand? Nah.

DAMMIT

This has to be the worst management i've ever seen in eSports history. Just make a fucking decision already.

2020-10-14 00:14

I would love to see them with fully new lineup built around kNgV-, but it's understandable that it's hard to find all the right pieces of a team in such a short time, sad that they most likely won't field their new roster in those events.

2020-10-14 00:16

I mean, don't they have that weird clause with Yeah?

2020-10-14 00:22

#166 " fallen, fer, taco owns YeaH, not MiBR or Immortals." with those 3players away, no more conflict of interests

2020-10-14 12:47

well 1st of all I thought fallen was no longer tied to Yeah. Also, the clause was with MIBR, not the players, that's why I'm asking

2020-10-14 18:47

all the players were in mibr a this time thats why there were in conflict. its not about the team, its about players. Owners (fallen, fer, taco (coldzera?) are owner of YeaH, and the first 3 players were playing for MIBR. you understand?

2020-10-14 23:11

I'm not talking about the conflict of interest m8, I'm talking about the clause MIBR had with Yeah where they were allowed to instantly buy out one of their players for a fixed amount

2020-10-15 03:34

Better go to valorant

+ boom - mibr

2020-10-14 03:26

trk didn't deserve this... to be fair he was the best addition of all mibr roster changes. he is a good solid rifler and I hope Immortals bs didn't ruin his career.
