Maestr0 links up with Jonji, Fruitcupx on Festina Lente lineup

Yesterday the orgless Festina Lente squad announced the addition of Michael "Maestr0" Bulostin to the team's lineup as their new coach, with the 37-year-old Refrag co-owner joining up ahead of the start of ESEA Open9-10 playoffs in the immediate future.

Outside of Refrag, the former 1.6 player had multiple coaching gigs back in CS:GO, notably working with Victorum, 7AM NA, and Bad News Bears from mid 2020 to late 2023 before seemingly taking a break from the role for a number of years.

Maestr0's addition to the team comes as Festina Lente have been fairly dominant in ESEA Open9-10 Season 57, with the squad currently sitting towards the top of the division with a 10-2 record.

Festina Lente are now:

• Jonathan "Jonji" Carey

• Gavin "Fruitcupx" Norman

• Max "Maxuel" Barutt

• Justin "FRIZZY" Gillis

• John "gamble" Thompson

• Michael "Maestr0" Bulostin (Coach)
