Iron Will to replace two - Report

11-2-2011 11:32

Reports in Russia and Ukraine are saying Iron Will are close to replacing two of their players.

According to GameInside.ua, Iron Will project leader Anton "Sneg" Cherepennikov has announced through the team's vkontakte page that the current roster has not worked out as initially expected.

Cherepennikov reportedly confessed that their idea - to have two old-schoolers mixed together with three new-schoolers - has been deemed as failure.

The Russian side recently added the 17-year-old player Sergey "hally" Shavaev, with whom they managed a second-place finish at WCG Masters Russia last month.

LeX's team in for a change

The reports furthermore say that Cherepennikov has stressed that the team will not bring aboard any players from other high-profiled Russian teams, such as MYM or USSR.

However, if the MYM report would reach the surface, and the players become free agents within short time, who knows how Iron Will ends up looking like.

For now, Iron Will have:

Anton "mash" Petrov
Alan "Fly" Temirov
Johan "F_1N" Kochugov
Alexey "LeX" Kolesnikov
Sergey "hally" Shavaev

Stay tuned to HLTV.org as we will keep you posted about the ongoing situation.

hmmm.. thought they had a nice lineup, but we'll see!

they should do

2011-02-11 12:01

no, really. at the moment this roster best in russia. russian/ukranian teams are most unstable, thats why MYM can win SK and lose USSR, for expamle. just more practice etc, and then this team will have great future :)

2011-02-11 13:41

it doesn't matter if they are unstable or not. the best line for russia is above.

2011-02-11 14:09

Edik instead of F_1N would be better, but still this information is already confirmed - the ex-MYM lineup will be playing under another tag with the same roster.

2011-02-11 14:29

They need hooch :D

2011-02-11 14:31
