NAVI VISA Academy: NAVI Youth roster update

The NAVI VISA Academy project for young CS2 players was launched in July last year. Based on the first season's results, we formed NAVI Youth roster under the guidance of experienced coach Michał “Snatchie” Rudzki.

During this time, the Academy players trained online, competed in their first tournaments, participated in media activities, and some even tried their hand at commentating.

However, before the start of the second season, there was a changes in NAVI Youth roster: we said goodbye to Pencz “Balage” Balázs, as he got replaced by 15-year-old Ukrainian player Lev “sae” Rakov.

The team coach talked to Yana “BlackBunny”Dychenko about the reasons for changing the team's AWP and the selection process for a new candidate.

We thank Balage for participating in NAVI VISA Academy: he is a great player who truly loves CS, and we are confident that the experience gained at the academy will help him achieve his goals and great success in the future.

The new season of NAVI VISA Academy begins very soon! Subscribe to our YouTube channel to keep up with all the most exciting team updates.
