CS:GO: Perfecto joins Na`Vi to replace GuardiaN; S1mple takes main sniper role

After a few unsuccessful months with Ladislav “GuardiaN” Kovács, Natus Vincere have decided to bench the Slovak.


GuardiaN's replacement, Na`Vi brings in a 20-year-old rifler from Syman Gaming, Ilya “Perfecto” Zalutskiy.

Additionally, Natus Vincere will change ingame roles: Aleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev will take the role of main sniper. While Perfecto steps in as a rifler.

GuardiaN joined Na`Vi three months earlier, shortly after Danylo “Zeus” Teslenko's retirement. During the months Ladislav appeared on the roster, Natus Vincere failed hard at both StarSeries S8 and at EPICENTER 2019. Though they were able to reach semifinals at EPL S10 and take third place at the BLAST Pro Series Copenhagen.

With that done, Natus Vincere now have:

  • Aleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev
  • Denis “electronic” Sharipov
  • Kirill “Boombl4” Mikhailov
  • Egor “flamie” Vasilyev
  • Ilya “Perfecto” Zalutskiy
  • Andrey “B1ad3” Gorodenskiy (coach)
  • Ladislav “GuardiaN” Kovács (benched)
