The Reality of Esports:
A loan that ended after just one qualifier.
In fact, Astini was brought in to go through the qualifiers, but he pushed Bottega into the roster because he believes in him.
Astini didn’t live up to expectations and was kicked out; in fact, Andrei wasn’t part of the organization’s future plans either.
It happens... 😳
Bottega spent less than two weeks on loan at PlayTime: he was signed on October 11, and on October 24, the Russian player, along with KJ, left the roster. During a stream, Astini stated that the organization kicked him out due to a lack of immediate results.
PlayTime, with bottega on the roster, played only in the closed qualifier for DreamLeague Season 30, where they finished in third place. After that setback, Astini wanted to qualify for the championship through the second division.
