AVANGAR to field Buster at ELEAGUE Major

1/1/2018 - 16:50

AVANGAR will be able to field their full line-up at the ELEAGUE Major after Timur "Buster" Tulepov managed to obtain a visa to enter the USA, HLTV.org has learned.

The Kazakhstani team had looked resigned to fielding coach Dastan "⁠dastan⁠" Akbayev at the Major after Timur "⁠buster⁠" Tulepov saw his visa application denied by the US embassy.

However, a source close to AVANGAR has told HLTV.org that the 18-year-old re-applied for a visa and was notified before the end of the year that his application had been approved, allowing him to travel with the squad to Atlanta.

Buster has been granted a US visa

The news comes as a huge boost for AVANGAR, who won the CIS Minor Championship in October after defeating Quantum Bellator Fire in the grand final of the event, which was held in Bucharest.

AVANGAR, who will compete in the ELEAGUE Major New Challengers Stage, will attend the event with:

Timur "⁠buster⁠" Tulepov
Aidyn "⁠KrizzeN⁠" Turlybekov
Alexey "⁠Qikert⁠" Golubev
Dmitry "⁠dimasick⁠" Matvienko
Dzhami "⁠Jame⁠" Ali

Dastan "⁠dastan⁠" Akbayev (coach)

Nice gl Avangar :)

Well, they can win QBF. :D And even Vega, F3, TyLul probably. Hard to expect much since it's probably their first serious LAN, but will see.

its not bait. liquid will play with coach. but avangar play together over half year and can win eu-mid-tier

2018-01-03 13:49

you dont pay much attention to the cs scene do you? They can beat Liquid and they can certainly beat misfits. Kangaroo hop away from the CS site if all you know is top team names like thorin

No. Sprout and qbf 0-3

2018-01-01 17:39

Sprout eSport 0:3? Hiko, are u kidding me?

2018-01-01 18:10

Sprout will make it to the groups.

Lol, no.

2018-01-01 19:21

Compared with entering major group, 0-3 loss is much more impossible.After all it is a team of all members participating in major previously .But still ,Making it to the group is a difficult job.

2018-01-02 05:17

when tere are tyloo (no bntet), liquid (no steel), rng, vega, qbf, ss, sprout, misfits, avangar, flipsid3, nV its really hard to predict, which two out of all these will go 0-3

2018-01-02 09:19

Sprout and QBF 0-3.

2018-01-05 12:51

Sprout will win a match atleast, good lineup , good at lan too

2018-01-05 15:53

Hope so.

2018-01-01 18:12

thats pretty fair, i can see them picking up wins against tyloo qbf avangar sprout, depends on map selection for the stronger teams though

2018-01-01 23:45

Kazakhs are always happy for SS, but turks are always ready to hate us. And we call each other brothers...

2018-01-01 17:49

Turks in Turkey are just bunch of arabs dont expect too much from them

2018-01-01 17:03

Did bntet re-apply yet?

he won't get visa so fast after rejection, there is no chance he will participate in the major

2018-01-01 17:05

They cannot make it, you are just saying cause you are fanboying, if not for dumb CIS minor stuff, they wouldnt even make the quali.

Good, well done.

Hltv we know you're short on stories, but please fuck off with this shit. Give an update when a team is 100% not going, rather than this gossip bullshit

2018-01-01 17:57

I agreed that CIS and ASiA would give 1 of their spot to EU, but AVANGAR are CIS minor champions, btw portugalian, iberia teams are more unknown, cry is free
