Aleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev has been relieved of his stand-in duties in the HellRaisers squad following unsuccessful negotiations concerning his contract.
As Aleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev is still contracted to FlipSid3 despite leaving the roster more than three months ago, HellRaisers merely fielded the Ukrainian in their past month's matches as a stand-in.
Even after grabbing Tomáš "oskar" Šťastný and Martin "STYKO" Styk following a short trial period, HellRaisers were unable to reach a deal with FlipSid3 and Kostyliev to buy him out of his contract.
s1mple no longer a HellRaisers stand-in
The player in question recently shared his disagreement with Šťastný's playstyle after being asked about the Czech on his stream, although whether that had any impact on the matter remains a speculation.
In the official news, HellRaisers stated that the team are currently on the search for a permanent replacement, and that they will be using stand-ins in official matches before then.
HellRaisers now have:
Kirill "ANGE1" Karasiow
Emil "kUcheR" Akhundov
Tomáš "oskar" Šťastný
Martin "STYKO" Styk
