PARIVISION announces the signing of HObbit, with the veteran set to replace a player in the starting lineup. slaxejezzz has been moved to the bench, as the club hopes to loan him to another team.
PARIVISION CEO Andrey Kvasnevsky stated in a declaration: It needs to be emphasized that we are not considering selling slaxejezzz. He remains a part of PARIVISION, and we look forward to working with him in the future.
HObbit briefly substituted for PARIVISION this summer, helping the team secure second place at the XSE Professional League Guangzhou Stop. Shortly after the tournament, he was replaced by FL1T. Now, he returns alongside this Russian rifler, reuniting with longtime coach dastan, who had previously spoken about HObbit at the EWC.
"I even think HObbit is stronger than slaxejezzz right now," dastan said in Paris when asked about moving the experienced Kazakh player out of the lineup. "But in the long run, slaxejezzz will grow more, and we need firepower. Because if we have HObbit, me, Jame, and FL1T on the team, it might be too difficult."
Despite these concerns, the team chose to add to HObbit's experience and raise the average age to 25.2 following a poor start to the season.
