Today's BattleArena tournament will be the first showing of the new Natus Vincere line-up and in light of said display, the organization has revealed their two new players. Former Team Empire Ivan 'Vanskor' Skorokhod and former Power Rangers player Artem 'fng' Barshak will complete the team.
Statement by Ivan 'Vanskor' Skorokhod:
"I am very pleased to be noticed by Na’Vi guys. It being a great responsibility I undertake to perform at the best level. I hope we’ll do our best as a new squad!"
Statement by Artem 'fng' Barshak:
"I am very glad to have an opportunity to play for Na’Vi team. I hope I won’t disappoint people that believe in me. I am grateful to the team ESFX.PR for their support and for the time I spent with them. I do not know what lies ahead of me, but this is the path I choose."
The two support players will fill the gap left behind by Clement 'Puppey' Ivanov's and Kuro 'Kuroky' Salehi Takhasomi's departure a few days ago. This does leave Power Rangers with only four official players. Empire seems to have already found their fifth and are planning to announce the new player next week.
Current Na'Vi roster:
Danil 'Dendi' Ishutin
Alexander 'Xboct' Dashkevich
Gleb 'Funn1k' Lipatnikov
Ivan 'Vanskor' Skorokhod
