hooch confirms MYM changes

18-10-2010 23:46

Former Virtus.pro star Dmitri "hooch" Bogdanov has confirmed to HLTV.org that he and Andrey "XomA" Mironenko have been removed from Meet Your Makers.

Reports in Russia in the past days have suggested that MYM are all set to provide a new home to Mihail "Dosia" Stolyarov and Sergey "Fox" Stolyarov after a bust-up between the forZe brothers and Alexey "OverDrive" Birukov.

Bogdanov has now confirmed the stories, indicating that personal problems within MYM's ranks led to the changes the team will undergo.

"We had some conflicts in the team but I think the thing is that romjke and edik think that xek is more helpful for the team than me, also there were some conditions with sponsors and managers, who did not want to see me on the team," he told HLTV.org

hooch with MYM at WCG

"Of course it was unexpected for me that they removed me, and also I did not like the way it happened.

The former UNiTED player confirmed that ex-k23 and Virtus.pro coach Konstatin "groove" Pikiner has accepted a coaching position at MYM, which marks his return to gaming after leaving the Arbalet Cup organisation in May due to personal issues.

Questioned about his future, Bogdanov stated that he will probably continue playing, but refused to tell whether his future lies at forZe.

The new Meet Your Makers line-up looks as follows:

Eduard "ed1k" Ivanov
Roman "ROMJkE" Makarov
Alexandr "xek" Zobkov
Mihail "Dosia" Stolyarov
Sergey "Fox" Stolyarov

NICE!

imo this team wont go far, i dont know if it is true the conflicts between lex and hooch but if not hooch is a good sign for Iron Will.

2010-10-18 23:53

Lex should join it, since hooch left. (They who don't like each other, right?)

why FalleN? Dosia do not play with awp

2010-10-19 00:02

fallen? jesus christ, how can u put fallen in the same list with forest, neo and get_right, he's light years behind from all these 3 players accomplished in their cs careers.. seriously, stop with this fallen worship, he's a good player, thats all ..

2010-10-19 00:07

I consider FalleN a madfragger as well. But ye, I agree, he is probably too "new" to end up in the hall of fame.

i think its pretty much unanimously understood that fallen awps and fnx is the mad fragger, you can check the stats to back that up. and yeah, fallen definitely not in the same caliber as f0rest/neo etc...

FalleN's rifle is equally amazing.

2010-10-19 04:38

no forest, get_right, neo=LEGENDS OF CS fallen=good player so far..

2010-10-19 13:08

I would say yes (taking into account the first three you mention). IMHO Dosia was the best Russian player before the comeback of LeX.

Allright, thanks. I couldn't quite remember if it was Dosia or someone else everyone was talking about (atleast some time back) :p

This is it! You said it all right jonny 8)

2010-10-19 00:52

yes, dosia & lex are great players hooch... hooch is also amazing sometimes but any russian team didn't succeed having hooch in it's squad

2010-10-19 00:04

I love how all their names end in ov. I'll give this team...2 months max before another lineup change and 3-4 months before they disband after not winning anything.

Gotta agree with you, i believe they were selfish on excluding hooch, who probably was their most stable player and leader. Anyway best of luck fellas!

2010-10-19 00:07

I saw some matchs and I can tell that hooch is not the player that he used to be..I guess it was because he never fit into team.. Sad.. I hope to see him playing soon ;) I personally love him *-*

2010-10-19 00:22

dunno what xek can bring, but seriously sometimes he is good, others he is bad.. hope he try to bring his internetgame to lan & do some damage, otherwise there is much more better players that just need the chance to show their competences

2010-10-19 00:24

OH NOOOO!!! PIKINER's coaching will ruin this team :(

They said xek is more helpful, not more skilled than hooch. People seem to think that skill > all. In CS or any other sports, there is more to it than just skill. Communication and chemistry are just as important. hooch is without a doubt better than xek, skillwise.. probably one of the best Russian players of all time. Take note that hooch hasn't had much success in the past with his previous teams. He was also the reason why LeX didn't want to play with MYM.

many people on diffrent forums write: Lex!, Lex go mym plz, etc. it's a delirium i think. Alexey has his team, and 100% that he won't leave IronWill. i know that lex is a great player and captain with a great skill, in Russia there is nobody who will compete with lex in this characteristics. mym.ru needs such kind of a player, a team leader, but it's so difficult to find a person who will be team leader as Lex for example.
