Bravado Gaming, the most prolific South African team, has had Richard “Deviant” Groves resign. Filling his place is former Bravado Gaming player Robby “blackpoisoN” Da Loca. 

deviaNt, who had resigned from Bravado Gaming’s active line-up due to constraints regarding playing time, had been a member of Bravado Gaming since 2006, according to the announcement from Bravado Gaming’s official site. Deviant will still be playing as the official sixth of their squad, however, blackpoisoN returns from Sweden to fill in his spot after a year of playing CS with top level players in the FPL Pro League.

On the roster changes, IGL for Bravado Gaming, Dimitri “Detrony” Hadjipaschali, had this to say:

“Almost heart broken to realize I won't be playing with deviaNt in the active roster anymore. Somebody I have shared so much success with, a real solid pillar in the Bravado line-up since 2006 side by side with myself. One of the most humble, easy going and all round solid Counter-strike players South Africa's ever seen, stepping into a 6th and substitute role is just not going to be the same, thank you for everything, and everything you have taught me.

Very excited to welcome back blackpoison filling in this spot, for the long run and the end goal we are so eager to achieve, someone who definitely shares equal vision as the four of us. I have no doubt that Robby will bring so much value to the line-up, especially returning from Sweden after a year and finding much success in the FPL playing amongst the best players in the world.”

Bravado Gaming’s Roster now consists of:
Dimitri “Detrony” Hadjipaschali
Aran “Sonic” Groesbeek
Robby “Blackpoison” Da Loca
Ashton “Golz” Muller
Ruan “Elusive” Van Wyk
Richard “Deviant” Groves (Bench)
Andreas “Cent” Hadjipaschali (Manager)
