Na\u2019Vi\u2019s Zeus announces surprising news about his CS:GO future DreamhackNatus Vincere\u2019s Danylo \u2018Zeus\u2019 Teslenko has revealed to HLTV that he doesn\u2019t have much time left in his professional gaming career. The former Major winner has come under plenty of criticism in the past year for Na\u2019Vi\u2019s struggles at tournaments, despite the team winning four events in 2018. Even though the team is third in the HLTV world rankings and finished second at the FACEIT London Major, Na\u2019Vi\u2019s shortcomings at events has been regularly highlighted by critics. They recently crashed out of IEM Chicago with a 13-16th placing and finished 5-6th at the ESL Pro League finals. In a wide-ranging interview, the Na\u2019Vi in-game leader spoke to the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive stats website about a number of topics, including a reflection on the past year for the team whilst also speaking about his own future and the future of star player Aleksandr \u2018s1mple\u2019 Kostyliev. \u201cAs it stands, in 2019 I plan to end my career as a player,\u201d Zeus told HLTV. \u201cMore likely towards the end of the year, maybe the middle, I\u2019m not sure yet.\u201d Zeus\u2019 exit from Na\u2019Vi may also be the point at which s1mple departs, too. The Counter-Strike prodigy has been of interest to many teams over the past year as he continues his dominance as one of, if the not the best, players in the world. There had been rumours of him joining MiBR when the Brazillian roster lined-up changes to their team but they instead went after Jake \u2018Stewie2K\u2019 Yip. Once the upcoming IEM Katowice Major comes and goes, a period of Counter-Strike rostermania is sure to set in. With FaZe Clan looking to replace recently-benched Finn \u2018Karrigan\u2019 Andersen, s1mple could join up with former teammate Ladislav \u2018Guardian\u2019 Kovacs. \u201cIt\u2019s always a possibility because he\u2019s one of the best players in the world, maybe even the best,\u201d said Zeus. We will see come the end of the year. It will be his decision to make. There\u2019s a chance [that he leaves], yes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
