NBK takes shots at Team Vitality teammates after getting benched DreamHack \/ StarLadder \/ Twitter: @kiocsgooThe French CSGO veteran Nathan \u2018NBK\u2019 Schmitt is not happy about being benched by Team Vitality after the StarLadder Berlin major, and he\u2019s making that clear on his Discord channel. Team Vitality entered CS:GO almost exactly a year ago, and have had plenty of success in that time. The French squad had an excellent summer, with championships at cs_summit and the ECS finals, and high finishes at ESL Cologne and IEM Chicago. They arrived to the StarLadder Berlin major as championship contenders, but after a less-than-stellar start and finish to the major, Vitality made the decision to move NBK to the bench. And he doesn\u2019t appear to be happy there, as indicated by messages on his Discord channel. \u201cI don\u2019t wish them bad things, but I don\u2019t wish them good things either,\u201d he wrote. \u201cThey\u2019re dead to me already.\u201d NBK revealed he wasn\u2019t really on good terms with the Vitality guys, but pointed out that Alex \u2018ALEX\u2019 McMeekin, Dan \u2018apEX\u2019 Madesclaire, and coach R\u00e9my \u2018XTQZZZ\u2019 Quoniam specifically were the ones making decisions, and that Mathieu \u201cZywOo\u2019 Herbaut and C\u00e9dric \u2018RpK; Guipouy \u201care just following what\u2019s happening.\u201d NBK is clearly unhappy on the bench, as he\u2019s found himself in an all too familiar situation. He spent months on the bench of G2 Esports before finally getting released and signing with Team Vitality in 2018. It\u2019s evident he\u2019s not looking to spend too much time on the bench, as he\u2019s added \u201cget me out\u201d to his Twitter bio. NBK offered a preview for what happens next in his career, saying \u201cI\u2019ll land on my feet and beat the French teams per usual.\u201d This could be an indication that he signs with an international roster, or he\u2019s just expressing frustration towards the current French scene. He offered a more complete promise on Twitter: \u201cI heard the news few hours ago, so I have not much to say tonight. But I\u2019m far from done. I\u2019m gonna have to flex tomorrow, find an international team and remind why I am in this position, and then we\u2019ll get back at fighting for the top positions! See you tomorrow\u201c I heard the news few hours ago, so I have not much to say tonight. But I\u2019m far from done.

See you tomorrow :victory::skin-tone-2:\u2014 Nathan Schmitt (@NBK) September 7, 2019 For Team Vitality, they will need to find either a permanent or temporary fifth player very soon, as they will be participating at BLAST Pro Series Moscow in just a few days. In their roster change announcement, the team did say they will reveal further details about their future in the coming days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
