The trigger for a new wave of debate was a harsh comment from EllanarkJesus, who is referred to as one of HLTV\u2019s administrators: in his view, all NAVI players currently have a \u201ccloudy future\u201d if you look at their form without the weight of the club\u2019s brand.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>NAVI\u2019s statistics at IEM Cologne 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The core of his point comes down to a simple but uncomfortable question for NAVI fans: how many players from this roster would realistically still be playing tier-1 next season if they were suddenly released from their contracts today? That framing is exactly what made the statement so resonant.<\/p>\n<p>Against the backdrop of that discussion, NAVI\u2019s statistics at IEM Cologne 2026 also drew extra attention. Across 13 maps in Stage 3, the best numbers on the team came from b1t and w0nderful, while makazze\u2019s and especially Aleksib\u2019s figures already look significantly weaker. As a result, the conversation quickly shifted from general emotions to the question of each player\u2019s real value in the current version of the roster.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <p class=\"article-h3\">read more<\/p>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/donk-still-believes-in-being-top-1-in-2026\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Picuttes-15-X4.jpg.webp\" alt=\"donk Still Believes in Being Top 1 in 2026: \u201cI Just Don\u2019t Think That I Can\u2019t\u201d\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/donk-still-believes-in-being-top-1-in-2026\">donk Still Believes in Being Top 1 in 2026: \u201cI Just Don\u2019t Think That I Can\u2019t\u201d<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/donk-still-believes-in-being-top-1-in-2026\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1781715112#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1781715112#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1781715112#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">Jun 17<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>b1t and w0nderful currently look the most stable<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you look strictly at the numbers from the tournament, b1t and w0nderful currently look the most convincing within NAVI. b1t posted a 1.17 Rating 3.0, a 1.24 K\/D, and the best R. Swing on the team at +0.78, while w0nderful finished Stage 3 with a 1.04 Rating, a 1.18 K\/D, and a positive +0.26 in R. Swing.<\/p>\n<p>That is why, in any discussion about NAVI\u2019s future, these two currently look the least vulnerable. Even if uncertainty continues to surround the roster, their individual form at least provides arguments in favor of them remaining competitive at the highest level.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>iM sits in the middle, but without much margin<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In iM\u2019s case, the picture is less clear. His 1.04 Rating 3.0 looks fine on paper, but a 1.04 K\/D and a -0.28 R. Swing show that this was more of a neutral tournament than a truly strong one.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, iM did not underperform badly enough to immediately become the main target of criticism, but he also did not post the kind of numbers that eliminate all questions about his place in NAVI\u2019s future. In the context of such a competitive scene, that kind of \u201cmiddle zone\u201d is often exactly where things become most dangerous.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_398391\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-398391\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-398391\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/55242570774_595f8e84e4_k.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/55242570774_595f8e84e4_k.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/55242570774_595f8e84e4_k-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/55242570774_595f8e84e4_k-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/55242570774_595f8e84e4_k-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/55242570774_595f8e84e4_k-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-398391\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Copyright by BLAST<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>The biggest questions right now are about the bottom of the stat sheet<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>makazze and Aleksib look the weakest compared to their teammates. makazze posted a 0.96 Rating, a 0.90 K\/D, and a -0.81 R.

One tournament, or even one bad stretch, does not yet mean NAVI will necessarily begin a rebuild tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>But these discussions do not appear out of nowhere. When a team goes through a tournament with such an uneven distribution of form between players, questions about the ceiling of this roster and its long-term viability start to grow louder and louder.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What this means for NAVI going forward<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For the organization itself, the main challenge right now is not simply to survive another wave of criticism, but to honestly assess where this roster truly still has room to grow. Because if part of the roster is consistently holding the level while another part keeps disappearing at big events, the team risks getting stuck in the zone of \u201cpretty good, but not enough for trophies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And that is exactly why the talk about a \u201ccloudy future\u201d sounds so unpleasant for NAVI. It does not hit the club\u2019s reputation \u2014 it hits the most basic question: is this roster itself strong enough to remain a true contender in tier-1?<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <p class=\"article-h3\">read more<\/p>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/tedds-iem-cologne-major-2026-playoff-pickem\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Main-x-Name-85.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Tedd&#8217;s IEM Cologne Major 2026 Playoff Pick&#8217;Em\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/tedds-iem-cologne-major-2026-playoff-pickem\">Tedd&#8217;s IEM Cologne Major 2026 Playoff Pick&#8217;Em<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/tedds-iem-cologne-major-2026-playoff-pickem\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1781715112#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1781715112#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1781715112#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">Jun 17<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>Doubt from the community<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>After IEM Cologne 2026, NAVI received not just another round of criticism, but a very specific doubt from the community: how viable is the current roster if you look at it without the weight of the club\u2019s brand.
