GuardiaN confirms Malmö attendence

Na'Vi's Ladislav "GuardiaN" Kovacs will be attending Dreamhack Masters Malmö despite his recent injuries.

One of the major question marks going into the Columbus major was whether Ladislav "GuardiaN" Kovacs, one of Natus Vincere's star players, would be affected by the RSI that he suffered recently; those suspicions were confirmed after a weak performance from the Slovakian in-game was followed up by a message on Twitter stating that he was forced to quadruple his sensitivity during the event in order to cope with the pain.

Although he stated that he would most likely be absent from the upcoming Dreamhack Masters Malmö in order to recover, the organization has revealed that he will be in fact playing his regular position with the team in less than a week. Na'Vi's team manager Eugen "Ugin" Erofeev had the following to say about the current situation:

After consideration of all the pros and cons, it was decided that the team will participate in DreamHack Masters Malmö 2016 with no stand-ins.  GuardiaN does have problems with his hand. He will be recovering before the tournament. This includes necessary treatment and no playing. The team will be training without him. Ladislav will play at the tournament with the team as we do not want to miss this event.”
