mighty44 reveal line-up

10-1-2011 01:26

Dmitri "hooch" Bogdanov has told HLTV.org the last three players to join his team of mighty44.

The Russian team were created last month by Bogdanov and Aleksey "HEL1" Novikov following the decision from forZe's management to put the organisation on hold.

mighty44 had tested three players in the New Year's Show online tournament, but only two of them - Mikhail "evil" Garanin and Anton "kibaken" Kolesnikov - will stay, as the team have decided against keeping former Virtus.pro member Nikita "Dio" Trifonov.

"Yes, we tested Nikita, he is a great guy and a good mate of mine, but it just did not got the right way," Bogdanov told HLTV.org.

To replace Trifonov, mighty44 have called in Vladimir "VofkiN" Shmakov, a member of the Russian national team in the last ClanBase NationsCup who is mostly famous for his time with 88-Gaming.

mighty44 are looking for an organisation to represent as they plan on attending the cyberarena Super Cup and the qualifiers for ASUS Winter, where they will present:

Aleksey "HEL1" Novikov
Dmitri "hooch" Bogdanov
Mikhail "evil" Garanin
Anton "kibaken" Kolesnikov
Vladimir "VofkiN" Shmakov

2011-01-10 02:49

Great Line-up!

Change xek for a madfragger and will be a gr8 team!

2011-01-10 01:51

in russia too much teams with disbalanced rosters: example - ex-forze with dosia, fox & overdr. iron will too, mash fly & fierce really good players, but not level of lex & f_1n. many reasons for impossibility of russian dreamteam: like tensions between lex & hooch and between dosia & hooch. now mym - hope of russian cybersport, 5 players with close levels :) edit: mighty44 - new team with disbalanced roster :)

What's the background story behind hooch and all that tension with lex and dosia?

2011-01-10 04:35

there is many of little happenings, but after one conversation with hooch i can say that hooch is pathos asshole =)

2011-01-10 04:38

if u r thinking that good balanced teams should have 5 madfraggers u r thinking wrong m8. if teams would train a lot, they can get lever higher, and people like u will change opinion. if u didnt's see frag movies from vofkin, evil, kibaken, fierce and so on, it dont mean that they are worse that lex or fin (this is example). russia now have 2 complete teams with no chance to change line-ups - MYM and Iron Will.

Haha, stop that bullshit... just cuz they frag much doesnt mean that thet cant play together. look at na'vi for an exampel zeus: not an igl, madfragger starix:madfragger markeloff:madfragger/monsterAWP Edward: madfragger ceh: madfragger/very smart player xek: ingameleader dosia:madfragger fox: firstAWP lex: smart madfragger hooch: madfragger

u r saying not clever things (bullshit?), mate. i know about navi and mym more than u, be sure. and result of match depends of more things than only madfragging. if u dont understand it, u r not good player.

2011-01-10 14:53

I respect your opinion, i really do. But what you say is that you cant put together a team with russias best players. I know you cannot put together a team how you want cuz chemistry etc is important. What i say is that just cuz they are good fragger it doesnt mean that they cant make a team. Can you honestly not say that lex dosia fox xek hooch/F_1N would make a great team if they would praccise alot?;)

2011-01-10 17:59

there are many insane players in russia beside players u write. and if they would train a lot, they can own the world. sorry, but im really tired of reading messages like "the better team will be..." "this player shoots like shit..." etc. when people create team, they are selecting teammates mainly by human factor (communicating, understanding tactics and so on), individual skill is secondary thing that is considered. those five people u write arent good in human factor, and it means that it wouldnt be great team.

2011-01-10 19:04

ROMJkE instead of lex :-P

2011-01-10 02:40

Have you ever seen lex play?

LeX playing not realy good after his comeback. 2005-2008 Lex was top 10 player in the world, but not now.

2011-01-10 15:07

He is still top5 in russia mate

2011-01-10 17:54

imo best 5 F_1N Dosia Fox RomjkE hooch/HEL1

2011-01-10 02:52

Russia dreamteam = lex, hooch, dosia, fox, romjke and dont tell me anything :p

2011-01-10 04:46

xek for eddy would be even better imo :)

2011-01-10 23:14

LeX dosia fox romjke dio always was my dreamteam lineup ;]

2011-01-10 03:31

VofkiN and evil really good, but not so famous. It can work like a team, in future.

2011-01-10 03:59

Is kibaken related to Lex?

unlikely

2011-01-10 04:40

I just figured since they have the same last name.

i really can't believe in any team with hooch in lineup. they gonna selfown from the inside, and later get teabagged by any mediocre team.
