The entire roster of 9 Pandas<\/strong> has been moved to reserve, as announced by the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The announcement follows the situation where Evgeny ‘r3salt’ <\/strong>Frolov and his team did not advance from Europe’s MRQ, finishing with a 2-3 record. However, CEO Julia Sotnikova <\/strong>assures that “there is something new ahead” for the organization.<\/p>\n\n\n

The lineup features seasoned player Vladislav ‘\u2060Krad\u2060’ <\/strong>Kravchenko, emerging anchor talent ‘r3salt’<\/strong>, and 22-year-old aggressive captain Aleksandr ‘\u2060shalfey\u2060’ <\/strong>Marenov. Daniil ‘d1Ledez’ <\/strong>Kustov and AWPer Abdurakhim ‘mo0N\u2060’ <\/strong>Issa \u2014 who joined in April following the departures of Vladislav ‘Alv\u2060’ <\/strong>Vorokhobov and Artem ‘iDISBALANCE\u2060’ <\/strong>Egorov \u2014 are also up for transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement did not clarify the future of coach Artem ‘Fierce’ <\/strong>Ivanov, who has been leading the team since June 2024. The organization joined CS <\/strong>in 2022 and qualified for the PGL Major<\/strong> in Copenhagen but ultimately could not attend due to travel complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A significant acquisition of ‘r3salt’ <\/strong>took place in November, just in time for Shanghai’s RMR<\/strong>, but the team was unable to qualify for both that event and the most recent qualifiers in Austin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9 Pandas roster was as follows:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Aleksandr ‘shalfey’ <\/strong>Marenov<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Vladislav ‘Krad\u2060’ <\/strong>Kravchenko<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Daniil ‘\u2060d1Ledez\u2060’ <\/strong>Kustov<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Evgeny ‘\u2060r3salt\u2060’ <\/strong>Frolov<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Abdurakhim ‘\u2060mo0N\u2060’ <\/strong>Issa<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
