Mir Leaves Spirit’s Bench to Join Entropiq

After six months on Team Spirit’s bench, Nikolay "mir" Bityukov has found a new team. The player has joined the Russian team Entropiq, where he replaced Viktor "Lack1" Boldyrev.

26-years-old mir has been on the competitive scene since 2015 and is well known for his time with Vega Squadron (2016 – 2018) and Gambit Esports (2018 – 2019). Later he joined Team Spirit, being one of the better performing members of the team with a 1.20 rating and helped them to win DreamHack Open January 2021: Europe and place 3rd – 4th IEM XVI – World Championship. Last November however the player was benched and since then has been mostly inactive.

Recently they placed 9th – 12th at ESL Pro League 15 and 12th – 14th at PGL Major Antwerp 2022: European RMR B, but managed to qualify for IEM XVII – Dallas. Currently the team also participates in REPUBLEAGUE Season 3.
