The Danish-Swedish mix of n!faculty has now become a pure Danish team as n!faculty announced the replacement of Markus "pronax" Wallsten, Alexander "rdl" Redl and Christian "Spitfire" Schiölde. Reason for this changes has been the latest results of n!faculty as they did not manage to succeed at DreamHack Bucharest and ESL Major Series One.
Only one week after the announcement of team PRIMETIME, Jacob "pimp" Winneche, René "cajunb" Borg and Rasmus "raalz" Steensborg left the team and joined n!faculty. With this addition n!faculty's CS:GO team now has a pure Danish roster. Wallsten joined his Swedish countryman from fnatic, as they also needed roster changes, due to their failures at the latest events. In favour of Wallsten, Andreas "MODDII" Fridh had to leave fnatic as they did not manage to repeat their faboulus results from the last DreamHack Winter, where they managed to place second in both DreamHack Main Tournament and Swedish Championship.
Statement Christian "PsYcHo" Lenz:
Today we have to announce the disband of our Scandinavian team. pronax will join fnatic and we all agreed that he deserves this chance. Markus was always loyal and did a lot for the team, it was a pleasure to spend so much time with him. We wish him best of luck and a great time, hopefully we will meet again soon.
Nevertheless, the third lineupchange during three months was way to much. We couldn´t guarentee a good DreamHack and the last results showed us that we need to change something. Due to ingame communication problems we decided to part ways with rdl and Spitfire and start a complete Danish team.
A big thank you goes to Alex and Christian, which both agreed with the circumstances. We had a great time in Bucharest, Cologne and Valencia, so it´s always hard to lose players which are in a good relationship with you.
The good news is: It didn´t take a long time to fix the Danish lineup. Thanks to good connections of karrigan and gla1ve, we were able to sign Pimp, cajunb and raalz. The three players were about to start their own project called 'PRIMETIME', but they saw the potential of this lineup, so they decided to take that chance. We will focus now on ESEA and DreamHack, so let´s meet on the battleground!
Statement Finn "karrigan" Andersen:
Once again I find myself in a position, to renew a team. This time pronax has gotten an offer from fnatic, which he wanted to take. Personally I know pronax for a long time and always wondered, why he never came further than he did in 1.6 and aswell in CS:GO. The hours that pronax putted into the game and what he did for the team makes him a important asset to all teams out there.
The team and I fully respect the transfer and I would like to take the chance to thank pronax for the short time, even though it was a bumpy road. I want to thank spitfire and rdl aswell for the good and funny moments we had together, though it was short but I had such a great time with the team at Dreamhack Bucharest and EMS. The sad part is how it all ends, right before the tournament we all aimed for, but there is never a good time to break up a team, because of a lot of tournaments.
The new n!faculty team will become a fully Danish lineup, which im personally very excited about. This means that gla1ve and I will make a Danish lineup, which will consist of cajunb, p1mp and raalz. We only have a little time for preparing for the biggest tournament this year, but I am fully confident that within these days, we will become better and better for every day. I think this team has a lot of potential, players with experience, individual skill, new fresh blood and in my point of view the best in game leader in Denmark at the moment. I hope the adjustments in game will go fast, so every player will find his positon within the team, so we can become a serious contender within some weeks.
I would like to take the time, to thank the organization of n!faculty and for believing in this team, likewise giving us the opportunity to represent them at Dreamhack winter in two weeks. It means a lot to the team and I appreciate that we have this opportunity. We will work hard to achieve better results than the previous team.
