As rumored in November, Roman "Ramzes666" Kushnarev is set to join forces with Akbar "SoNNeikO" Butaev and Vladimir "RodjER" Nikoghosian in a new team to carry on his DPC 2023 run.

Roman's new team is called Darkside. They had been able to claim the spot of BBT for the upcoming DPC. The other 2 players of the roster are Vladislav "DkFogas" Frolov and Maxim 're1bl" Afanasiev. The former played for Cybercats for some time and the latter for HellRaisers.

Ramzes666 used to play at Virtus.Pro up until the TI 2022 regional qualifiers, where the team lost to BBT in the finals. SonneiKo and RodjEr were his rivals in the grand final of the regional qualifier. As a result, BBT weren't able to go past the group stage, ending their TI run on the 19-20th place.
