"Me & Arteezy are besties" - Saberlight on his list of close friends
During the livestream, Shopify Rebellion's SabeRLight- was asked by a follower about his list of close friends in the current competitive scene. The Czech offlaner first responded by saying that he has a close friendship with former TSM teammate, Enzo “Timado” Gianoli during his two years stint with the team.
“Who would you say that you are closest with as a pro player? I think probably Timado, but we don’t talk a lot like we usually do after I moved to Shopify Rebellion. But with him, I think we’re pretty close together.” he said.
He then went on to list several well-known personalities that he also has a close bond with as friends, such as Team Liquid’s coach William “Blitz” Lee, Tundra Esports’s Oliver “skiter” Lepko and fellow teammates Artour "Arteezy" Babaev & Kanishka "BuLba" Sosale.
“But as of now, I would say that I’m close with BuLba I guess. I am kind of close with skiter as well. Not that close but I guess close enough to be considered as a friend. I’m friends with Blitz. Who else? Of course Arteezy as well. Me and Arteezy are besties.”
He then ended the conversation by saying that he is very close with Timado & skiter overall, as he often hung out with the latter at LAN events.
Shopify Rebellion are currently scheduled to be taking part in the latest iteration of the BeyondTheSummit’s [BTS] Pro Summit as it was invited to the tournament, however the team will not be playing until 15th February as the team will be only playing in the playoffs.
