Today, we are once again proud to present a new pick up.
Another player have seen the light from the Anexis colours, this time it's a StarCraft II player! Artem 'VERDI' Avramenko, a professional Protoss player from Russia. A guy with ambitions and with metal in his backpack!
Artem started out by playing WarCraft III on a high level, and made the switch to StarCraft II after several now professional players also did. As stated above Verdi is a professional SC2 player and he has achievements like this with him:
3rd Kalashnikov Cup Online Qualifier 2010 Top 4 x2 Moscow Opens 2nd ASUS Spring Cup 2010 2nd ESWC Russia 2010 2nd eSahara Cup 3rd ieSF 2012 World Championships Round 16 IEM Katowice
Mark "Stylie" Bakker wanted to say the following about the new player:
"I'm very delighted with the signing of Artem. He is a good player who is getting better everyday. Artem will focus on the upcoming expansion set Hearth of the Swarm. He is playing the BETA ladder and is currently in the top 20 in the grandmaster league. Artem will not be the only StarCraft II player for Anexis eSports e.V.. We are keeping our eyes open for more talented players like Artem. I want to thank Anexis eSports e.V. and the sponsors, Ficken Liquors and Razer, for their support to make this possible."
Artem 'VERDI' Avramenko had the following to say about him joined Anexis:
"I'm very happy to join such a professional organization as Anexis eSports e.V ! I think it's my step into professional gaming , which I'm preparing to join as soon as possible. Anexis is giving the best support for their players , and it's important to get a stable home , because I am going to do my best with full-time StarCraft II trainings . As Wings of Liberty tournaments soon will end, I've started my hots trainings and I wish to do my best in the upcoming tournaments and get good results, and of course I will allways try to defend the Anexis eSports tag !"
Anexis eSports e.V is growing very fast these days, with currently a TOP 8 CS:GO team, a League of Legends team who sadly haven't qualified for the Championship Series yet, and now another professional player but in our new StarCraft II team. Joining one of the most important eSports titles is a huge step, and we are confident that Artem will do a great job!
Toni 'anakim' Milicevic said the following upon Artem joining:
"With 2013 already kicking in, we are thrilled to announce that we will be venturing into StarCraft II scene, as one of the biggest eSports title out there. Our new addition Artem "VERDI" Avramenko is one of the strongest prospects in the scene and he will be representing the Anexis eSports brand and our sponsors in his future endeavours. It's a great privilege to be a part of the highly rated SC2 scene and we hope that it will last for a long time. Make sure you stay tuned for more huge news from our headquarters that will follow soon. We would like to use this chance to thank our loyal sponsors in the shape of Razer, Ficken Liquors, ESET Internet Security, FSHost, GamersUniform, EloHell, Mr.ZAP."
Our new StarCraft II team is currently: Artem 'VERDI' Avramenko

right lets just ignore his skill level. many very popular players are bad mannered even if you dont realize it. and also many players who are considered good mannered are douchebags often times. you are not a very smart person
gl Verdi. hope this team doesnt screw him over, no offense but it happens way too often.
|
Goodluck Verdi, you deserve a good team!
|
I love Anexis from their CoD4 team :D
Verdi is really skilled as well, hope the manner issues are solved! Hope for more SC2 players on Anexis in the future!

I've only seen him sentry immortal and be incredibly bad mannered. That's not how to represent sponsors.

Yet another BM shit getting picked up by a team not doing their research. Plenty of more well-mannered players with similar/higher skill levels. Good luck to both, but this looks like vVv in terms of player interest.

Yeah, but not all pros are acting like this:
00:01 [All] Verdi: like you 00:01 [All] Verdi: such a gay persons 00:01 [All] Verdi: i never seen 00:01 [All] Verdi: retard 00:01 [All] Verdi: fucking 00:01 [All] Verdi: omg 00:01 [All] Verdi: i kill peoples in real life when they waste my time 00:01 [All] Verdi: because u waste my time
Then goes lying to the admins about what actually happend and gets DQd from the actual tournament.
Also, quoting from ealir in the thread "lol that guy threatening to kill my parents every game finaly got a team, gratz anexis for this pickup"
I hope the team is aware of what kind of player they get and did a research on more than just his results...
Stylie:
Anything that the team has to say regarding these "quotes" from Verdi, are they acceptable as long as he plays in your team?

I know about a few issues, but not all. I have talked a lot with Verdi about this and he's sorry for a lot that he said in the past or may have done. Since then he's nothing but nice. I believe people deserve a second chance. And people have to learn from their mistakes. His past is hunting him now. Which is his own fault. He hopes with a good attitude to proove that he's a normal person who is trying to make a living out of pro gaming.
Myself and Anexis eSports e.V. don't accept any bad behavoir. But the quotes you are posting are from the past. There is nothing that we can do now. We support a man with a dream and we believe we do good with it. I hope that other people will also give him a second chance.
I don't like to refer to other players who have done bad things. But some of them also got a second chance.

Next thing you know, you ask him to apologize for playing Protoss. Get real, play style has nothing to do with representing sponsors, look at MC.
Didn't know about VERDI's alleged bad manner but I do know he is a good player. Hopefully Anexis shapes him up into a good guy as well and an even better player. GL~

Good post. It's sad to see people with this behavior get on teams and change afterwards because they have benefits to do so. I know I have a similar past but I never told anyone that I'd kill their parents or them in real life. Verdi is obviously very talented so gl to both parties! =)
