dastan on PARIVISION: “I think zweih and xiELO are the heart of our team.”
PARIVISION coach Dastan “dastan” Akbaev shared his thoughts on the victory over BIG, assessed his team’s current roster, and compared it to FaZe Clan in an interview at the XSE Pro League 2026.
On the match against BIG
The first map, Cache, was tough, but we played a lot of rounds and gained the necessary experience. I think that’s good for us. As for the decisive map, Ancient, the outcome of the match was decided by a clutch at 9-9, which we managed to win. Yesterday, we got some good rest and prepared for our next match.
On PARIVISION’s revamped roster
In the new lineup, Jame is playing better, and zweih and xiELO are gradually gaining more experience. They provide more information and play with much greater confidence. I think zweih and xiELO are the heart of our team. I often tell them that they’re no longer rookies, but experienced players who are somewhere between the veterans and the newcomer slaxejezzz.
On the match against FaZe Clan
If you compare us to FaZe, our players’ firepower is definitely better.
