We saw Zacard moving to Germany a couple of years ago. Now another SK-Gaming profile is planning on doing the same. Andrey 'Deadman' Sobolev is moving to Cologne, Germany.
- We are working on his move to Germany, where he will have perfect conditions to focus on gaming on a professional level, says ownitsch.
Mr. Sobolev has not been seen playing in the recent clanwars for SK-Gaming for a while, and people have been beginning to wonder about his whereabouts. Earlier today SK-Gaming published an interview with one of their managers, ownitsch - where we get to know that the Russian Night Elf is actually on the move to Germany. ownitch says that there is a lot happening with Deadman at the moment and that we will find out when the time is right. He shares though that Deadman is planning on moving to Germany.
Germany is a country where WarCraft 3 plays a major role in eSports, especially with all the offline events there, and of course the ESL Pro Series. With Deadman moving to Cologne you quickly put the two together and see that it is a major opportunity for Deadman. Although ownitsch would like to point out that the ESL Pro Series is not the reason for this step.
- Deadman will join the EAS when all visa issues are solved, says ownitsch, with EAS being the ESL Amateur Series.
We remember Zacard doing the very same, moving to Germany because of having better opportunities to play in eSports events. With this we might actually see Deadman playing at offline events without having to bother with the Russian visa issues.
