Rustam \u201c5TRYK#R\u201d Alimkulov has announced his decision to part ways with the forZe CS:GO esports<\/a> team in a Twitter post, where he thanked the organization for their 17 months together and made it clear he is looking to continue his coaching career elsewhere.<\/p>\n

That means forZe will enter the CIS Minor on July 24 without a head coach, which could harm the team’s chances of winning the event and thus qualifying for the prestigious StarLadder Berlin Major.<\/p>\n

While 5TRYK#R’s departure does not come as a shock, considering he had hinted in June that he might leave the team, the timing is less than ideal. It was thought he would wait until after the Berlin Major, rather than barely a week before the CIS Minor.<\/p>\n
