B1ad3 Names NAVI’s Minimum Goal for the 2026 CS2 Season

The coach of the Natus Vincere Counter-Strike 2 roster, Andriy “B1ad3” Gorodenskyi, has spoken about the team’s objectives for the 2026 season. According to him, the main goal for the roster remains winning a major tournament.

The specialist noted that it is important for the team not just to perform consistently, but to secure a significant trophy that would confirm the roster’s progress and its potential on the professional scene.

“The only thing that can satisfy us is winning tournaments. We need at least one trophy. Some big tournament, not something like StarLadder in 2025. That would show progress and prove that we are capable of becoming a team with a future.”

According to B1ad3, the current NAVI roster continues to develop, but the team still needs to improve several key aspects of its game. In particular, the coach highlighted the need to increase consistency in performances and the firepower of the roster in order to compete for titles at the biggest championships.

Meanwhile, NAVI continue their run at ESL Pro League Season 23. On March 13, the team successfully reached the semi-finals of the tournament, defeating The MongolZ with a 2:0 score.

One of the heroes of the match was rifler Drin “makazze” Shakiri. On the Mirage map he delivered an outstanding performance and finished the game with an average rating of 2.35, which became one of the best results in his professional career.
