NAVI sixth “nipl” is in fantastic shape prior to BLAST World Final
The 17-year-old Ukrainian rifler has been grinding FPL!
Not long ago, NAVI’s coach Andrey “B1ad3” Gorodenskiy confirmed that their talented 17-year-old rifler, Andrii “nipl” Kukharskyi from NAVI Junior will be playing certain maps with the first team at BLAST World Final. The 17-year-old Ukrainian was even with the first team in Copenhagen at the BLAST Premier Fall Final, where we, unfortunately, didn’t get to see him in action. However, nipl got the feeling of what it is like to be at a LAN tournament with one of the best CS:GO teams in the world.
A six-man roster is nothing new for NAVI as the team has tried powers by utilizing a sixth man before. The last time was when Egor “flamie” Vasilyev was on the main roster and Valeriy “b1t” Vakhovskiy was the upcoming star from their junior roster, and got the chance to play with s1mple and company on some maps.
Lately, NAVI’s 17-year-old talent has been grinding FPL and has put up some insane numbers. On FPL’s Twitter, they made a post revealing the Top 5 players with the highest K/D in the European FPL, in which nipl has topped the chart. During the last 7 days, the 17-year-old Ukrainian rifler has been on fire and averaged the highest K/D – 1.82.
Take a look at the Top 5 right here:
