Following his removal from Falcons, Macedonian in-game leader Damiyan "kyxsan" Stoilovski gave his first interview to the Half Time CS podcast. He admitted that the decision came as a shock and deemed it unfair. Stoilovski learned of the news during the IEM Rio tournament, despite never having any prior discussions about changes within the team. He believed the project was meant to be long-term, with promises of stability to build a solid lineup. The 25-year-old leader added that the team deserved more trust and time for development. While he has no ill will towards the organization, Stoilovski acknowledged the timing of the change was difficult, as it hindered his ability to secure a new team before Major roster commitments.
