Winstrike CEO Yaroslav Komkov said Kirill's transfer was the most expensive in the history of Russian esports .

After the transition, Kirill said that he felt guilty in front of the Winstrike Team . After the transfer, Mikhailov's previous team failed to qualify for the CIS Minor Championship - Berlin 2019 and lost the chance to get to StarLadder Berlin Major 2019 .

I feel guilty about Winstrike . Everyone around me tells me that I did the right thing, but I'm still ashamed. Winstrike was a team that I kind of put together myself. I was the captain, I made the decisions, and these people believed in me. I think in the near future I will suffer because of this.
