In an interview with the organisation, Konstantin “Pr1zraK” Krivosheev said, “When I started my career as an esports-man, there were no coaches, no sponsors, no organizations, but what was there, there was no Internet, and everyone played in computer clubs. Actually, such a situation made me leave esports at one point, because it is very difficult to combine work and professional sports.”
“After the release of CS:GO, I have repeatedly gathered strong teams from scratch. In most of them, I was a leader in the game. In addition to eSports, I have managerial experience, and I know for sure how to form a strong team. It is important to identify weaknesses and develop the strengths of each, correctly set goals and motivate for high results.”
forZe eSports’ CS:GO team has won Copenhagen Games 2019, DreamHack Open Winter 2019; qualified for StarLadder Berlin Major 2019 and were runners-up at BLAST Pro Series: Moscow 2019. With this school, the organisation proposes to nurture young and bright talent to become the stars of tomorrow.
