According to Counter Strike veteran and Major winner Mikhail ‘Dosia’ Stolyarov, NaVi player Egor ‘flamie’ Vasilev is a free agent now after terminating his contract with the org.
In a stream yesterday, PGL Krakow Major 2017 winner ‘Dosia’ claimed that NaVi has agreed to terminate flamie’s contract after 5 months of him being on the bench.
Dosia also claimed that flamie has received offers from teams that have ‘tier 1 players and with players that have potential to be tier 1’. The addition of flamie could work in a Hobbit-esque manner as it did for Gambit, having an experienced veteran with a team of young superstars for upcoming CIS teams.
Flamie joined NaVi 6 years ago, in 2015 as a stand-in and has been a permanent member since then, until his benching in April 2021 for 18 year old ‘B1T’. While on NaVi, flamie saw immense success and was the runner up at the FACEIT London Major 2018. He also won BLAST Global Final in 2020, and IEM Katowice 2020. He is also listed as part of the roster that won the Intel Grand Slam for his participation in the IEM Katowice 2020 win.
While these rumours could be false, it is more than likely to happen soon with the integration of ‘B1T’ going more than well for NaVi, having already won 3 trophies with him on the roster.
