The start of 2025 has not been kind to BESTIA, with several early tournament exits against lower-ranked opponents exposing the cracks in their lineup. Just today, BESTIA suffered a concerning series defeat against Sharks at the ESL Challenger League Season 49 South America, where they lost to the Brazilian team 1-13 and 8-13. In response, they have opted for a roster shake-up, with leo_drk being the first of at least two new additions aimed at revitalizing the squad.
leo_drk is best known for his time with 00NATION, where he played alongside Marcelo “coldzera” David throughout 2021 and 2022, gaining valuable experience at a high level. The Brazilian joins the Argentinian organization after starting 2025 with Swingers, a team he notably played against multiple times this year. In their most recent encounters, Swingers eliminated BESTIA from CCT South America Series 7 with a 2-0 victory, demonstrating this potential as a strong addition to the roster.
BESTIA have been a regular presence in the Americas RMR circuit, making two appearances last year at the qualifiers for the PGL Major Copenhagen and Perfect World Shanghai Major. Their campaign for a spot at Perfect World Shanghai Major was particularly close, ending with a 2-3 record after an intense, double-overtime loss to M80.
One of the standout players during that run was Tomas "tomaszin" Corna, whose 1.37 rating placed him among the top performers of the event – ranking second overall and surpassing well-known names like Jonathan "EliGE" Jablonowski and Roland "ultimate" Tomkowiak. Despite this, BESTIA have struggled to maintain consistent form, frequently adjusting their lineup in search of stability.
The team’s instability led to a series of roster changes throughout 2024. naz was originally brought in to strengthen the squad after their first RMR disappointment. But further struggles prompted more shifts. Ignacio "meyern" Meyer was replaced by Mauro "zock" Da Silva midway through the year, only for zock to be benched following their second RMR failure.
With the signing, BESTIA’s roster now consists of the Argentinians Tomas "tomaszin" Corna, Luciano "luchov" Herrera, and Nicolás "Noktse" Dávila, and the Brazilian Leonardo "leo_drk" Oliveira. Julián "Zote" Acosta acts as their current coach.
