Magixx Leaves Team Spirit – CS2 Roster Changes

Esports organization Team Spirit has officially announced that Boris "magixx" Vorobyev has been removed from the main CS2 roster. The news was shared via the team’s social media channels. However, Vorobyev is not leaving the organization entirely – he will remain within the team structure as a substitute player. At this time, it is unclear who will take his place in the starting lineup or where magixx plans to continue his career.

Magixx has been part of Team Spirit since September 2019, spending nearly six years with the team. During that time, he became a key figure in the roster, participating in over a thousand maps. With him, Spirit reached the greatest heights in their history: winning the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024, securing titles at IEM Katowice 2024, PGL Astana 2025, and BLAST Bounty Spring 2025. Known for his consistency as a rifler, composure under pressure, and wealth of experience, Vorobyev was one of the team’s cornerstones for many years.

The current active lineup of Team Spirit now includes Leonid "chopper" Vishnyakov, Miroslav "zont1x" Plakhotya, Danil "donk" Kryshkovets, and Dmitry "sh1ro" Sokolov. The team’s future strategies will be built around these four players. A fifth member has yet to be officially announced, though rumors about a potential transfer have been circulating within the community. One of the names mentioned is Ivan "Zweih" Gogin from Nemiga, but there has been no official confirmation.

Team Spirit target zweih after strong Major debut

From the editorial side, it’s worth emphasizing that magixx wasn’t just part of Spirit’s major victories – he was the face of the team back when the organization had yet to be seen as part of the elite. His journey is a testament to loyalty, discipline, and steady growth. Yet esports is constantly evolving: rosters change, young talent rises, and teams seek new stylistic and strategic combinations. Parting ways with magixx may well be part of Spirit’s long-term vision aimed at continued dominance in CS2.

Letting go of one of the most loyal players in the organization is a major move. It marks the end of an important chapter in Team Spirit’s story and the beginning of a new one – for both Boris Vorobyev and the team as a whole. Fans now await news about magixx’s next steps and the final form of the Spirit roster as they continue their quest for titles on the international stage.
