After two years in the Monte organization, the team left the coach Serhij “lmbt” Bezhanov, one of the legendary coaches of Ukraine. Who at one time was the coach of Mousesports, HellRaisers and other teams.

Monte recently switched to a Polish roster and two Ukrainians in the roster learned Polish, but for lmbt, learning Polish is over.

Reasons for replacement

Most likely the reason for the replacement was the poor results of the team in recent times, not reaching RMR, third place at ESL Challenger Atlanta 2024 Europe Closed Qualifier, 13-16th place at Thunderpick World Championship 2024 EU Closed Qualifier 2.

After the substitutions in Monte, the team entered the new season controversially, out of the first 5 matches, the team managed to win 3 matches. But after a month of playing with a new roster, STYKO left the team unexpectedly and was replaced by KEI, a Pole, when the team changed the language of communication.

New coach

Who will be the new coach of the team is still unknown, but there are three potential candidates. One of the two current analysts could become the new coach, but nawrot will have priority, because he was already the head coach. Also the post can be taken by the first coach of the team KrizzeN, who is now an assistant coach.

Fans are calling for kuben, who left ENCE a couple of days ago and is now without a team. And the Polish roster of Monte could be a good option for him, but we will wait.

Team comments

We've had an insanely bumpy road during this time at Monte and it's been a good roller coaster, I'm grateful to every player I've worked with here as well as every staff member. I truly believe this roster will grow to the level it is at. And I'll be finding a new job soon.

lmbt

It's a bit of a shock for us, but a huge thank you to bossman lmbt for this time, I've definitely learned a lot in this short period of time. He's an amazing guy with a huge passion for the game, I wish you the best of luck in whatever lies ahead.

Things change in our lives and unfortunately nothing lasts forever. But memories remain and it was a very cool 2 years with lmbt in monte. I am grateful to Sergey for these cool tournaments and for teaching me a lot. I wish only the best in life

Future LMBT

After his departure, he said that he will find a job soon, but the community found an interesting coincidence where the creator of the Ukrainian organization kONO.ECF said yesterday on a podcast for Leniniw that the team is waiting for a famous coach to run out of contract. So his joining the team can strengthen the team, because he will bring a lot of experience to the young team and strengthen it.
