Taras "craft1k" Voitenko has announced he will retire from gaming, forcing DTS.chatix to find a new fifth.

DTS.chatix announced in mid-December last year, the additions of the KerchNET duo Emil "Kucher" Akhundov and Taras "craft1k" Votienko, completing the roster for 2010.

DTS.chatix who this past weekend finished second in the Ukrainian qualifier for Arbalet Cup Asia, today lose Votienko, as he announced he will retire from gaming.  
 
Team manager Maxim "XPEH" Dyakonyuk told GameInside.ua that it came as a huge surprise to the team. Votienko is however still contracted to DTS.chatrix, disallowing him to play for any teams until after 1/6.


Votienko retires from gaming

Filling the void of Votienko will be the now former csc.Arena member Sergey "Emelik" Lebedev. Lebedev who back in mid-December was shown the exit door.

DTS.chatrix now house following:

Egor "pops" Zinoviev
Andrew "B1ad3" Gorodenskiy
Valentin "valentiniCh" Kravchenko
Emil "Kucher" Akhundov
Sergey "Emelik" Lebedev

It is not known what event will be Lebedev's debut for DTS.chatirx.

What??? Have you been following Esenin in the past matches, lately at the UA qual for Arbalet Cup Asia? He's a mad man and really the team can thank him, as he was one major factor, why the team won the qualifier.

True, and seems to be a nice guy + nice aim + motivated guy. Sometimes people underrate players only because they don't know them.

On topic: I think that craft1k lost his motivation when old KerchNET (lmbt, starix, craft1k, kucher +1) fold.

Hey mate, forget what he said about replace some guy in Arbalet.UA. Turkish players people think that when you have one player (who has worse aim than other) they should replace him and bring some skilled player. They don't care how they clutch, how many important rounds they take or they are key player. So, never mind.
