Tarik opens up about time with MIBR and plans for the future in CS:GO DreamHack \/ Adela Sznajder2018 couldn\u2019t have started better for Tarik \u2018tarik\u2019 Celik as he lead Cloud9 to victory at ELEAGUE Boston to become the first and only North American team to ever win a CS:GO Major. Unfortunately, the Cloud9 train was derailed just as quickly as it started rolling. Despite winning the Major in January, a number of underwhelming results and a new opportunity at MIBR saw Stewie2K leave the team. A few months later, in July, tarik followed his former teammate to join the majority Brazilian roster. Unfortunately, the team never managed to gel and MIBR decided to try a full Brazilian roster once again. Stewie2K went to Team Liquid as part of a swap for Epit\u00e1cio \u2018TACO\u2019 de Melo and Wilton \u2018Zews\u2019 Prado, but tarik found himself benched when he didn\u2019t receive an offer that he wanted to pursue. Now, the 22-year-old has opened up about his time with MIBR and his plans for the future in a statement on TwitLonger. \u201cI knew that joining MIBR was a risk and unfortunately it didn\u2019t pan out. Some difficulties in language and culture, but most importantly a clash of play styles brought it to an abrupt end,\u201d he said. \u201cRegardless of everything, having the chance to learn and work with the Brazilian core was a unique and thrilling opportunity for me. Although it was short-lived, it was an honor to play with the legends. I have no regrets, everything happens for a reason.\u201d Unfortunately for fans of the North American, it doesn\u2019t sound like we\u2019ll be seeing him in action any time soon, as he has opted to remain on the MIBR bench and wait for the right opportunity rather than rushing into any decisions. In the meantime, he says he will be concentrating on his Twitch stream and improving as an individual in CS:GO: \u201cAt this time I\u2019ll be sitting out with MIBR, streaming and working further on my personal game, until another opportunity arises.\u201d It seems likely that tarik will wait until the IEM Katowice Major concludes in early March before he looks at joining a new team. Most Majors are followed by an intense transfer period as many of the world\u2019s top teams look to make improvements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
