The 17-year-old academy graduate looks to be out of the team as the organization ponders a switch in direction.

There's a lot of smoke about Perfecto and Electronic getting removed from Navi, wonder if it's true.

If it is, no way C9 don't jump on those two and cut Buster and Nafany. Not sure if all of the roles will be perfect 1 for 1, but the firepower on that roster would be ridiculous.

If anything needs to change is the mentality of electronic, s1mple and blade. They look so passive agressive, it's no wonder why nipl and sdy put in bad performances. They need a sports psychologist, but their egos are too big for that.

there's nothing passive about simple's aggressiveness

It's a good time for a big switch / going international, what with the coming of CS2 soon.
I guess there's only so many gigastars that they can produce with their academy team and NAVI as a team is only really gunning for top spot. So if they don't have another b1t / monesy situation, they'd rather go external.

They would likely prefer to sign Russian players, considering the large Russian talent pool and shared language, but their Ukrainian fans would chastise them.

Yeah, Perfecto and electroNic are grandfathered in from before the invasion and aren't representing a country, but sliding a new Russian into the team at this point seems like a terrible idea. Ukrainians haven't exactly gotten less loyal to their country since Russia began their three day operation.
