KRIMZ has tested positive for COVID-19, Fnatic revealed today.

The Swedish CS:GO player is now unable to attend the initial stages of ESL Pro League Season 15, which kicks off today in Düsseldorf, Germany. “Due to testing positive for Covid, KRIMZ faces travel restrictions and currently cannot attend ESL. We wish him a speedy recovery and hope that he will join the team in Dusseldorf very soon,” Fnatic said in a statement on social media.

Valentin “poizon” Vasilev, who has previously represented teams like Windigo and Complexity, will join Fnatic as a stand-in in today’s match against Ninjas in Pyjamas.

Additionally, Iulian “regali” Harjău won’t be a part of Fnatic’s starting roster today. The team have opted to bring in Matias “Banjo” Kivistö, a 17-year-old from the Fnatic Rising squad. It remains to be seen if the team will continue to use this lineup throughout this week’s matches.

The team could still make use of Ludvig “Brollan” Brolin, who was benched following IEM Katowice 2022. Ninjas in Pyjamas is interested in buying out the 19-years-old player, however, according to a report by HLTV in February.

KRIMZ is the longest-standing player in Fnatic, having played for the team for more than five years. Missing such an experienced player in the ESL Pro League will surely be a blow for the team leading up to the playoffs.

Fnatic are set to face off against Ninjas in Pyjamas at 12:30pm CT today. You can catch all the action on ESL’s Twitch channel.





【剑雪封喉天下DotA】TI13战队巡礼——Team Liquid

JC CASINO Tháng chín 22, 2024

　　大家好我是剑雪封喉，2024年国际邀请赛临近，和去年一样，我和完美合作，将天下DotA战队TI13战队巡礼的文字版发布在完美的各个渠道。 　　Liquid战队自TI9后奇迹哥、KKY那波人离队，阵容就大体没怎么换过。去年国际邀请赛上，他们胜者组败给了“雪碧”，败者组输给了GG，一个是后来的冠军，一个是后来的亚军，确实也没什么脾气。再加上那年液体五个亚军也都是拜这俩队伍所赐，合着整个赛季就是被他们合着伙欺负过来的。 　　TI结束，心灰意冷的zai妹选择离队，这职业不打也罢，不过转头就去Tundra当了战队经理也不知道是托了哪层关系，或者单纯就是作为督战给劣势路一点压力，结果就是Tundra一年换了四个三号位，这段到介绍“石头人”的时候咱们再聊。 　　当然李逵也不亏，送过去个zai，转手从Tundra领回来个33，新成员经验丰富、老成持重，且具备我们队伍亟需找回的TI冠军基因，Make Liquid great again! 　　这边管理层刚刚忽悠完四个队员，那边传来消息，33去不了马来西亚，没办法找了“赛博光”(SabeRLight)过来替补，最后拿了个第三无波无澜。我们印象深刻的反倒是败者组决赛，AR配合主办方整活的那句赛前垃圾话。 　　进入2024，李逵新阵容首次亮相是在迪拜的“别墅杯”上，他们又很传统的淘汰赛首轮落入了败者组，然后发现祖传的手艺确实没撂下，一路又杀将上来直到总决赛，0-3输给了Falcons送给后者赛季首冠。就今年吧，凡是总决赛被绿鹰剃光头的队伍，多少都沾点晦气，液体也不例外。紧接着梦幻联赛22季，他们小组第一阶段并列垫底淘汰出局。 　　后边缓了一个多月，Liquid战队又参加了精英联赛，小组头名晋级的他们踌躇满志，结果胜者组输给了AR，败者组被XG淘汰，参赛名单前后一对，还年前那5个人，阴魂不散追着我们打是吧。 　　再往后他们发现，努力不一定成功，但躺平真得很轻松。接下来的ESL One伯明翰和PGL瓦拉几亚，液体都是前六的成绩，不算好、不算坏，对内对外有交代;也不苦、也不累，打卡下班不遭罪。结果温水青蛙，背靠背的梦幻联赛S23，李逵松弛过头了，小组赛倒数第二直接被淘汰出局。 　　真是人算不如天算，因为紧接着第二天刀塔版本就更新了，倾天之战来临，就差了这一个晚上。随后已经成为了观众的液体队员再看后续比赛肠子都悔青了，特别是33老夫聊发少年狂，梅肯笛子赤红甲，合起来四舍五入不就是我朝思暮想的怨灵之契么。这是我们的版本啊。 　　接下来就是激动人心的利雅得大师赛了。划了几乎一整年的33重振旗鼓，颇有再回巅峰的架势，在他这个队长的带领下，液体队员人人奋勇各个争先，淘汰赛首战2-0淘汰“雪碧”并告诉TI双冠王，你们已经不适合这个版本了;接着2-1“水”滴“石”穿赢下了Tundra，1分怜悯后面放出了“石头人”一模一样的阵容并取而胜之。 　　但是随着比赛的行进，你李逵回来了，他GG也回来了。后边的故事我都不知道该怎么讲，你说是队员的状态差吗?那肯定也不是，同一天在败者组决赛2-0战胜几乎整整一年的苦主Falcons，哥几个人人如同天神下凡，节奏那叫行云流水。但一小时后的总决赛上，个个都像老了20岁的中年社畜，保温杯里泡枸杞，0-3是Bo5的极限，却不是这帮倒霉蛋的极限。强行解释就是玄学吧，大概GG和间谍一样，都不溶于“液体”。而数据体现了更加冰冷的现实，Liquid战队已经连续七次顶级赛事决赛落败，悠悠苍天，何薄于我。 　　李逵的队员就不用介绍了吧，我只是有些感慨于33这名选手，从当年在Optic带着一群战队弃子战天斗地的铁血真大腿，到后来在Tundra国际邀请赛封王加冕心愿得偿，随后几乎是肉眼可见的断崖式状态下滑。我们都说失败会把人区分成不同的样子，有人踟蹰不前，有人愈挫愈奋，而面对冠军，面对荣誉又何尝不会有这样的考验。 　　至于Liquid战队未来TI成绩预期，腹黑一点，看他们什么时候遇见GG了。 　　2024年互动指南与战队应援团已经更新，如果喜欢Team Liquid的话，可以购买一些应援包来支持Team Liquid。 　　如果你获得了互动指南中得3级传送特效奖励，那么传送时还会展示应援团中最喜欢战队的队标。
