Natus Vincere to join ESL One New York

Updated roster of the strongest CIS teams received an invitation to the up-coming ESL One New York tournament.

Some time ago, Natus Vincere decided to make some changes in their active roster. Daniil "Zeus" Teslenko left Na’VI team, and Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev (Team Liquid ex-player) replaced him in CS:GO active roster.

Na’Vi demonstrated good results during this year, and several times took awards on the biggest championships. Natus Vincere participated in MLG Columbus 2016 and  DreamHack Masters Malmo 2016 grand finals, but last matches showed that the team had some problems.

ELEAGUE S1 and ESL One Cologne 2016 now are the latest LAN-events for Natus Vincere. They demonstrated good results, but did not manage to take the main reward in these events. However, after s1mple was signed, the team received a chance to take all the up-coming grand prizes.

ESL One New York 2016 is going to be the first LAN-event for a new Natus Vincere roster. The current list of ESL participants looks as following: Virtus.Pro, G2 Esports, Team Liquid, SK Gaming and Na'Vi.

Barclays Centre will hold the event on September 30 - October 2. The prize pool of the tournament is 250 000 USD.
