Monte made a bold move by appointing Piotr “nawrot” Nawrocki as the new head coach. This move surprises many, because previously the squad was completely Ukrainian, but now there is only one Ukrainian left in the squad, and the team has four Polish players with the coach. But the appointment of Nawrot is not only interesting because of this.
Nawrot is no newcomer to the professional scene. Best known for his work in 9INE, he led the team to success by collaborating with players who now also form the backbone of Monte. The move symbolizes Monte's further Polish expansion, giving the team a new breath and ambition.
Changes in Monte's lineup and the departure of lmbt
Monte has been actively changing its structure over the course of this summer. Moving away from the previous roster and gradually bringing in Polish players was part of the team's strategy to strengthen its position. The departure of lmbt and the appointment of Nawrot only emphasize this trend.
Nawrot's work in 9INE gave him experience working with top players such as Olek “hades” Miskiewicz and Kamil “KEi” Pietkun, who joined Monte recently. The coaching move is logical against the backdrop that Monte is rapidly moving towards a Polish identity, replacing Ukrainian players with Polish players.
Details of the appointment and upcoming tournament
Nawrot's appointment comes on the back of Monte's failure to qualify for the RMR, where the team lost the decisive match against B8. However, Monte has an important tournament ahead of them at YaLLa Compass Summer 2024, where the team will face PARIVISION in the Swiss group stage. This match will be Nawrot's debut in his new role and he is expected to showcase his coaching skills on the international stage.

Conclusion
With the appointment of Nawrot, Monte strengthen their team with not only experienced players, but also a new head coach. This decision could be key to success in the upcoming tournaments and regaining lost ground. Monte's new coach and revamped squad is not just a reshuffle, but an ambitious plan for the future.
