The team had a number of notable accomplishments such as finishing as the runner-up in ESEA Premier Season 39 Europe, Funspark ULTI 2021, winning Pinnacle Fall Series 2 and CCT North Europe Series 1, and impressing with a 9-11th place showing at PGL Major Stockholm 2021. The team and coach had a successful start, but the results fell off soon after.<\/p>\n<p>In October 2022, Entropiq decided to place the entire roster on the transfer list. The team struggled to qualify for PGL Major Antwerp and the IEM Rio Major and faced difficulties in fulfilling business goals associated with the Russian roster following the war in Ukraine. These factors were cited as the primary reasons for the decision to let go of the team.<\/p>\n<p>Owing to the decision to move all players to the inactive roster, five members of the team, including its analyst, became free agents just one month later, while hooch and Igor &#8220;Forester&#8221; Bezotecheskiy remained contracted through the end of 2022. Now, hooch has become a free agent, while Forester remains tied to the Czech franchise.<\/p>\n<p>The departure of hooch from Entropiq is a significant development for the franchise and the CS:GO scene. As one of the most experienced and respected coaches in the scene, hooch has a proven track record of success, and his absence will be felt by the team. With hooch now a free agent, it is uncertain where he will end up next, but there have been rumors that he may be connected to Kirill &#8220;Boombl4&#8221; Mikhailov&#8217;s rumored new project.<\/p>\n<p>It is still not clear who the possible replacement would be for the 35-year old as Entropiq is yet to announce one. With the season kickoff fast approaching, the franchise will look to fill that position and recruit skillful players in a bit to complete its roster.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/news\/\" class=\"contentLinkBtn\">More esports news<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entropiq, a Czech esports franchise, has parted ways with its Counter Strike: Global Offensive coach Dmitry &#8220;hooch&#8221; Bogdanov.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":24544,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[508,626,2959,1351,4],"class_list":["post-27431","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-counter-strike","tag-cs-go","tag-dmitry-hooch-bogdanov","tag-entropiq","tag-featured"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27431"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27431"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27431\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27432,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27431\/revisions\/27432"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24544"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27431"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27431"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27431"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
