A simple Tweet on September 16th announced Aram Karamanukyan as the new CEO of, and investor in, Russian esports organisation Virtus.pro. The announcement caught the esports community by surprise, especially due to the low profile with which it was made: an unverifiable Tweet from a brand new Twitter account. <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
