PinG with stand-in at ESWC

1-7-2010 15:27

PinG will not present their full roster at the ESWC world finals, as Emil "Kucher" Akhundov will be replaced by Bogdan "penguin" Marchenko.

According to what HLTV.org has found out, Akhundov, who joined the team last month to replace Serg "lmbt" Bejanov, could not get the required visa to enter France and had to stay in his homeland of Ukraine.

He will be replaced by Bogdan "penguin" Marchenko, a Ukrainian 12-year-old player with no previous international experience whose parents paid for the entire team's trip to Paris.

PinG's chances of making it pass the opening group stage look very slim as they take on Evil Geniuses and Fair Frag in Group G.

Their roster for the ESWC finals is the following:

Kiril "ANGE1" Karasiow
Juriy "strike" Tereshenko
Alexey "xaoc" Kucherov
Taras "craft1k" Voitenko
Bogdan "penguin" Marchenko

WTF?

2010-07-01 15:28

2010-07-01 15:28

and the reason of replacement is that they had no money to go... and the parents of this boy are rich and agreed to pay if they will take the boy into lineup for ESWC...

that's one of the most stupid answer i've ever seen on this website. I can imagine it's like a dream for him and you should wish him good luck and having fun instead of hiding behind your screen and throw your hate on this kid...You can't blame this kid for having parents with money and that wants to be good with their son.

I just wonder how long he's been playing :D Usually you start playing CS around his age so I'm guessing he hasn't played CS for more than a few months.
