What Happened to B1ad3's Arm? NAVI Coach Breaks Collarbone Before Match Against FaZe

An unexpected incident occurred at IEM Cologne 2025: NAVI’s coach Andrey “B1ad3” Gorodenskiy broke his collarbone while riding an electric scooter. The accident happened just a few hours before a crucial Group B match against FaZe Clan.

According to NAVI’s official social media channels, B1ad3 was on his way back to the team after grabbing a coffee when he fell off the scooter and suffered the fracture. Medical staff provided immediate assistance, and he showed up to the match against FaZe with his arm in a sling. Later, the organization confirmed that Gorodenskiy would undergo surgery.

Despite the situation, the team didn’t seem shaken: NAVI defeated FaZe Clan 2–1, delivering a confident performance even under pressure. The match was part of Group B, where teams are competing for a spot in the playoffs at one of the year’s biggest tournaments.
