NAVI in-game leader tested positive for Covid-19
Kirill Sergeevich "Boombl4" Mikhailov will play from a separate room in the group stage of IEM Katowice.
Some bad news struck the NAVI camp today. Their in-game leader Kirill Sergeevich "Boombl4" Mikhailov has been tested positive for Covid-19.
With Boombl4's statement in mind, the consequence of the positive test could be limited for the NAVI roster. At least until the playoffs take place in the Spodek Arena next week. Here there will be no opportunity to compete from separate locations, which will force NAVI to use a stand-in player for the in-game leader if the Russian is not cleared to be out of his isolation.
The situation has left the NAVI players in shock.
