On Dzmitry “Fishman” Palishchuk’s Telegram channel, Entity head coach Daniil “MeTTpuM” Gilev recently explained the rationale for the team’s most recent roster adjustments. Only one roster change was done by the entity during the current off-season, and that was when it mutually parted ways with explosive carry Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko since the player wanted to join BetBoom Team. Alimzhan “Watson” Islambekov, a former Hellraisers carry and the top player in Europe in terms of MMR (Matchmaking Rating), was quickly identified as a possible replacement by the team. The coach of the Entity Explains the Motives for Roster Changes

MeTTpuM provides the explanation for Pure’s departure

Daniil “MeTTpuM” Gilev, the head coach of Entity, recently made comments on a number of team-related problems, such as roster changes and Daniel “Stormstormer” Schoetzau’s absence from the team’s debut with the new lineup at the BetBoom Xmas Show on Dzmitry “Fishman” Palishchuk’s Telegram channel.

Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko, a former carry who recently joined BetBoom Team for the upcoming season, was the subject of the first MeTTpuM segment, which covered his departure. While the coach acknowledged that it was difficult to let go of Pure, the choice was made after lengthy discussions with the player.

“It wasn’t simple, but we cut ties with Pure. Ivan is a star player, but there were several issues that prevented him from working well with the TI lineup. To come up with the best approach, we had a lot of conversations and debates. During this time, there were a lot of nerves. The good news is that we handled the split amicably, and spoke about our future plans in a more or less open manner. The idea of a roster change—both a kick and a leave—happens frequently in the shadows, with many discussions taking place behind someone’s back, in my experience. Perhaps this seems absurd to a regular watcher. On the other hand, Pure and I worked together to solve this issue.

Alimzhan “Watson” Islambekov was recently added to the team to replace Pure, and he continued by explaining why by stating that he met a “sum of several criterias”. During the off-season, there were reports that Tobias “Tobi” Buchner and Vladislav “Kataomi” Semenov would be departing the squad. He also addressed these claims.

“If Kataomi was really accepted to BetBoom, the Tobi story was just a meme,” someone said. When the leaderboard was unlocked by some journalists, they noticed that one of Tobi’s three accounts had “lft3” next to it. He’s already got that prefix for three years. Despite the fact that rumours occasionally have a basis in truth, avoid believing them at face value.

The main reason for Stormstormer absence during the BetBoom Xmas Show, when the team debuted its new roster, was explained by him. He said the player had taken a previously agreed-upon vacation before the event, but he also said that Stormstormer had just returned and was currently preparing with the team for the upcoming season. This brought the discussion to a close.
