Despite being in former coach hally's dream team, zweih found himself benched on Spirit this Christmas. Cheers, Santa.
Fortunately for the baby-faced assassin, he's found a new home as one of Jame's minions on PARIVISION, who were big overachievers at the Major despite what many feel was underwhelming talent. zweih, with that in mind, makes perfect sense.
He never quite settled on Spirit as a more passive anchor player, but Jame will have more specific ideas of how to use him, one would imagine, and for a player who sometimes seemed to get lost in the chaos a more structured style might get the best out of him once again.
It's worth remembering how good he was when Spirit decided to pick him up; this is potentially a real coup for PARIVISION.
His stats on Nemiga at the start of year were very impressive, averaging a 1.14 rating alongside over 80 ADR, but it was the fact he continued (or actually bettered) that average when playing against good opposition that caught the eye. He had excellent showings against HEROIC, 3DMAX, BIG, GamerLegion, M80... you get the picture.
That was what earned him the chance on Spirit, but a combination of his own poor adaptation and probably a little bit of the Spirit style (or lack thereof) meant he never quite hit those heights, but a move to PARIVISION looks like one that could suit all parties.
He has the ability, PARIVISION needed an upgrade on AW (who was okay, but not a tier one player) and Spirit have already moved on, seemingly. He was mainly a stopgap for zontix, on reflection.
This seems like a move that should make everyone happy.
It makes us happy to see a guy who seems lovely get another chance on a cool team.
