Magixx shared his expectations for the progress of w0nderful as part of Team Spirit

Magixx, who is a Team Spirit player, in an interview for the HLTV portal shared his expectations for w0nderful's progress in the team. According to the 19-year-old esportsman, the new sniper of "dragons" differs from degster in terms of the way he plays, but it suits the team well in the future.

As for the preparation, we played a lot individually, like before the major. I cannot name any goal or desired place in the tournament. I would say our goal is to enjoy the game and show the results of training. Let's see how far this takes us.

The CIS region is rich in young and promising players of various roles: riflers, snipers, and so on. So you can recruit a lot of candidates, but it's hard to try them all to find out who is the best fit for you. Finding a replacement is easy, much more difficult is choosing the perfect person to complete your team plan.

We played with four snipers throughout the test period, and w0nderful just proved to be better than the others. He has excellent decision making, reaction time, shooting and mindset, and is good at support. He suits our team very well.

Personally, I expect w0nderful to be a less aggressive player than degster. This guy can just create conditions for other players with grenades and finish rounds because he wins clutches with AWP easily, and we can create space for him. Of course, he has the opportunity to play aggressively and make spades, no one forbade him to do this. There is no problem with that, he just needs to be involved in the structure of the team's playing style.
