pro100 could be one man short for the CIS Minor as Leonard "⁠kenzor⁠" Volodarchuk is likely to miss the tournament due to health issues.

The revelation was made earlier on Thursday on Twitter by teammate Ivan "⁠AiyvaN⁠" Semenets, with CIS pundit and caster Oleksandr "petr1k" Petryk confirming the situation and adding that the team are "urgently looking for a stand-in" for the event.

pro100 are yet to issue a formal statement regarding the situation. The Ukrainian team qualified for the Minor after finishing 5th-8th in the closed qualifier, beating RAVE, MOLLIHblE and forZe.

kenzor is likely to miss the upcoming CIS Minor

HLTV.org knows that pro100 have already contacted ESL enquiring about the possibility of fielding a stand-in at the Major. If the request is denied, they will have to play with coach Arseny "⁠ceh9⁠" Trynozhenko, who was promoted to head coach last month.

The CIS Minor will take place from January 16-20 in Katowice, Poland. Eight teams from the region will contend for two spots in the New Challengers stage of the upcoming Major, IEM Katowice 2019, as well as a spot at the Minors' play-in.

UPDATE: ESL have denied pro100's request for a roster change in time for the CIS Minor. The team will now have to either hope for kenzor's fast recovery, or, more likely, employ coach ceh9 as a fifth.
