Jame on Outsiders teammate: He’s a generational player; I've never met someone like him
Petr “fame” Bolyshev - A name to remember in the future if you ask his team captain.
Halfway through 2022 Outsiders lost their absolute star player in Mareks "YEKINDAR" Gaļinskis as he moved overseas to the North Americans from Liquid. To replace the Latvian powerhouse, Outsiders decided to go with an inexperienced teenager by the name of Petr “fame” Bolyshev from K23.
Where one could think that the shoes of YEKINDAR were way too big to fill out, fame quickly proved his worth by displaying a phenomenal level under the leadership of Dzhami “Jame” Ali. Something which hasn't gone unnoticed by his team captain.
- He is a generational player. I've never met someone like him. He is a fast learner, he's very disciplined, he always gives himself fully and as a human being, he's really a decent one. Just a simple kind of guy, Jame says in an interview with us.
IEM Rio was fame's first Major in his career - Here the 19-year-old Russian averaged a stellar 1.24 rating and played a huge role in Outsiders' impressive title run
When talking about fame’s potential and future, the Outsiders captain said the following about his strong rifler.
- It all depends on who he meets on his path. After me for example, and while here on our team, but he has a bright future and I think that he can win. Like big time. I mean every kind of tournament, every major, if he puts himself into it. But it's kind of difficult because we know a lot of examples of young players winning some huge tournaments in the early stages of their career but then something happens to them and they just don't shine anymore.
We also asked Jame about what the departure of YEKINDAR back in May meant for the team – something he actually believes had a positive effect on the team.
- It made us train more and made us spend more time into introducing new players so it actually has had, I'll say, great impact on the team. He was the key player in our system and we actually structured our game around him. So, when you introduce new players, you going to do a lot of work, you're going to fix their mistakes and introduce them to our game.
