Due to restrictions imposed by the situation in Ukraine, Monte’s coach won’t be able to go to the last major in Paris.
Due to “new regulations” in Ukraine that prevent him from leaving the country, Sergey “lmbt” Bezhanov has said that he would not be attending the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 with Monte. In Paris, the team will compete without a coach supporting them.
Since the start of the war in February of last year, men between the ages of 18 and 60 are not permitted to leave Ukraine, however getting exceptions to be allowed to cross the border was previously simpler, said the cocah.
The Ukrainian team, which has shown a good fight so far, will play their first match in the Challengers stage against FaZe team, one of the favourites of the tournament. In the Europe RMR B group the team that had made it to the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 by winning in a surprise way against ambitious teams such as ENCE, Cloud9 and FORZE had lost only to Heroic.
After joining to the major by score of 3-1 in Europe RMR B, the Ukranian team added new achievements to their history by being runner-up in the CCT Central Europe Series 6 tournament and being the champion in the CCT West Europe Series 3 tournament. It is a matter of curiosity what the team that will go to the last major tournament without a coach will do.
