PARIVISION Advances in Esports World Cup with Key Victory Over 100 Thieves

PARIVISION managed to avoid elimination at the Esports World Cup by defeating 100 Thieves in a decisive two-map series. The victory featured Evgenii "FL1T" Lebedev, a recent addition to the roster, who played a pivotal role in the team's performance.

In a post-match discussion, coach Dastan "dastan" Akbayev elaborated on the recent roster changes, including the departure of Emil "nota" Moskvitin and Andrey "BELCHONOKK" Yasinskiy. He cited a decline in individual performance as the primary reason for the adjustments, clarifying that the decisions were not driven by drama but rather a necessity for improvement.

Looking ahead, PARIVISION is set to face MOUZ on Sunday, marking their first encounter since the PGL Cluj-Napoca 2026 event. Despite acknowledging MOUZ as the favorites, dastan expressed optimism, suggesting that his players could draw confidence from B8's recent victory over Vitality.

Dastan reflected positively on the team's preparation leading up to the match against 100 Thieves, noting that the players executed well in terms of shooting and communication. However, he also recognized the need for better control over younger players as they adapt to high-stakes competition.

The addition of FL1T, whom dastan has known from their time together at Virtus.pro, was a strategic move aimed at bolstering the team's experience and game sense. Despite the challenges posed by the new meta, dastan believes FL1T's integration will strengthen the team in the long run, even as they navigate the learning curve together.
