Arman "Malady" Orazbayev has ceased to fulfill the duties of captain within Natus Vincere. Now, the esports athlete will be able to focus on playing in the support role. The new captain of NaVi is Bakyt "Zayac" Emilzhanov.

The corresponding statement was made by the esports athlete during Alexey "STORM" Tumanov's Twitch broadcast.

"I'm no longer the captain; let's just say that Bakyt 'Zayac' took it from me. He's fully leading now, does all the drafting, he took it all upon himself, while I reverted to my usual role where I simply execute, and nothing more is required from me."

Natus Vincere will represent the Eastern European region at DreamLeague Season 23. The team secured the slot from Virtus.pro, winning with a score of 3:2. Previously, Natus Vincere were sent to the lower bracket after losing to Virtus.pro in the match for a spot in the grand final. However, the team managed to win the second slot through the lower bracket and take revenge.
