n0rb3r7 expressed that his game with Jame had become predictable in recent matches, stating:

“Jame’s system wasn’t working as it had in CS:GO; our game was easily read in matches.” (Translation: Jame’s strategy was no longer effective, making our gameplay easier for opponents to anticipate.)

He acknowledges the adjustments made in the team dynamics, particularly after he and Jame were released from the lineup at the end of the previous season. Denis ’electroNic’ Sharipov has since taken over as the team’s captain.

While discussing his current state, n0rb3r7 shared his focus on maintaining fitness and preparing for the upcoming BetBoom LanDaLan tournament in Moscow, alongside a mixed roster including notable players like Ilya ‘Perfecto’ Zalutskiy and Denis ‘deko’ Zhukov. He stated:

“I’m trying to keep my skills sharp, hoping to contribute effectively.” (Translation: I’m ensuring I stay competitive and ready for opportunities.)

With the continuous evolution in competitive play and shifts in team strategies, n0rb3r7 emphasized the necessity of adapting to stay relevant in the scene.
