Starting June 3, 2022, sdy plays as a stand-in in Navi in place of Bumych, who was kicked out at the end of May. Simply put, Mad Lions, sdy's hometown club, gave him on a free rental to Navi. After two major tournaments, Lisbon Blast in June 2022 and Cologne in July 2022, the fate of sdy (also called «somedieyoung», «Samdayang» or real name – Victor Orudzhev) in Natus Vincere is not yet finalized.
The club's management has kept a sepulchral silence regarding sdy, although Navi players like Simpl, Beat and Perfecto have already stated several times to cyber sports media that they would like to continue playing with Samdayang in the lineup. In turn, CS GO analysts believe that as a player, sdy can give Navi a lot in terms of increased firepower and discipline, as he is able to fulfill the role of an entree-frager, lurker, and also patiently sit on the plente waiting for the opposing team to attack.
In general, Samdayang's story is interesting because his past team playing at dash-2 tournaments actually gave up on him, however, in the top org Navi he got a second chance and, as you can see from the results, tried to make the most of it.
Becoming sdy as a player
Reading the biography of sdy, you quickly realize that he became a cyber sportsman, as they say, «it was God's will». When somedieyoung was only 3 years old, his father in his own garage in the town of Kostopol, located in the Rivne region of Ukraine, organized a small computer club for 9-10 computers, so that the future standin Navi at this age already chopped in Counter Strike version 1.5. Apparently, sdy got acquainted with the primer later than with the famous phrase from CS:GO «Bomb has been plented».
Victor progressed in Counter Strike very quickly. Player sdy, at the age of 9, won his first lanow kaeser tournament, held, however, in a 3x3 format. Then he had another passion, which Orudzhev could not give up - soccer. Nevertheless, life spared him the agony of choice, because at the age of 14 it turned out that Victor's health condition would not allow him to pursue a career as a professional soccer player.
Even the demand of his parents and closest relatives to get a legal education did not change Orudzhev's decision regarding the CS CS. He, of course, became a graduated lawyer, but, as you understand, there is no information about his work as a lawyer in sdy's biography.

CS:GO clubs that sdy played for
Evaluating the list of teams where sdy played before joining Natus Vincere, we can note one interesting feature: in none of the clubs, except Team Spirit, Victor did not stay long and did not play even 10 matches. This may indicate that Samdayang very clearly understood where he wants to play, what the atmosphere should be inside the team, what is acceptable to him and what is not, so he quickly left the team if he saw that it does not suit him.
The list of clubs that sdy played for in CS:GO is as follows:
-
spray’n’pray – Samdayang's first team between May and September 2017. He played only 7 matches for it, 5 of which he lost.
-
Dream – Orujew's second team, for which he played from September 2017 to January 2018. A total of 2 matches were played. Both ended in defeat.
-
It wasn't until January 8, 2018, that sdy secured a spot on a dash-1 level team – Team Spirit. Of course, in CS:GO Spirit – is not a top-5 or even top-10 level organization, so there is little media attention around it and few people know about it except fans. It was only by becoming a new Navi player that sdy became a media kaeser.
-
His last club before Navi – Mad Lions (January 13, 2022 to June 3, 2022), where sdy played only 1 match.
Samdayang'
s inventory
Looking at Samdayang's skins, one gets the impression that he is very careful when it comes to choosing coloring: he spends crazy amounts on weapons he likes, and is practically indifferent to the rest of the models in his arsenal.
Not to be unsubstantiated, let me give an example: player sdy is the owner of a unique «Bear Knife» with the skin «Blood Web». What makes it especially valuable is its low float ratio – of just 0.0607 - and the presence of the Stattrack. On the market it will be ripped off with hands and for 1 million rubles. solely for its rarity and unique characteristics.
But this is not all. Victor boasts a cool M4A4 with coloring «Howl». This skin will individually cost a fortune, but to a new Navi player, sdy, that's not enough. He put a Natus Vincere team sticker on «Voy» that commemorates the performance at their first major. In addition, his skin is made as Factory New and equipped with a Stattrack. «Howling» with such improvements will be priced at least 2 million rubles on the market.
And for dessert – skin on Kalash «Surface hardening» with a price tag of 4.5 million rubles with three Titan stickers from the Katowice 2014 times (by the way, each Titan costs around 1.5 million rubles).
Life principles of sdy
The first postulate that the sdy player follows is respect for his family and friends and love for his mother. And these words are not an empty sound, because Victor respectfully respected the wish of his relatives that he should have a law degree. But in turn, Samdayang defended his right to choose his destiny and his profession by deciding to become a professional kaeser.
The second axiom for Victor – is to strive to improve the world around him and help the people around him. This is very well seen in sdy's game in Navi, where he does not pull the blanket on himself, does not swing the rights, and tries to maximize the system of the game Natus Vincere, find its place in it and help more experienced teammates to defeat the opponent.
.Talking about what he would choose, – money or his favorite business, Orudzhev noted that he would prefer his favorite business – CS:GO. Sdy believes that if he plays with full commitment and desire, the money will surely come, as an addendum, as a nice bonus. If one chooses only money, sooner or later burnout and health problems will occur, and a person will have neither money nor occupation (business, job).
