Chopper gave an honest answer about whether he plans to return to the Counter-Strike 2 pro scene

Leonid “Chopper” Vishnyakov stated that he currently has no plans to return to professional Counter-Strike 2, either as a player or as a coach.

“This year, I’m just trying to explore different avenues. They’re all, of course, related to media. I have no plans to return to CS—neither as a coach nor as a player. You need to come to such a decision with a clear head, understand that you really want this, so that you can get fired up again and so on.

So for now, I’m trying to shoot videos here and there, stream here and there, host casts here and there, and learn new skills.”
