SK Gaming's Michael "Friis" Jørgensen will not attend the EU Minor due to health issues.
Michael "Friis" Jørgensen will not be attending the EU Minor with his team, SK Gaming. The Danish talent recently had hip surgery and cannot attend due to not being at an advanced enough stage in his recovery. Replacing Friis at the EU Minor will be SK's substitute, Casper "cadiaN" Møller, who still has a contract with SK. He was most recently seen playing for Preparation, which disbanded after John "wenton" Eriksson left for Fnatic and Nicolai "glace" Jensen went to Escape. Friis' twitter post stated that he still believes in his team and is sad that he cannot compete.
Rosters are usually locked before the minors, but since SK Gaming was able to provide medical records of Friis' surgery, there will be an exception to the rule. Seven other teams will be competing against SK in the European Minor, for $50,000 and two spots to the ESL Cologne Main Qualifier.
SK Gaming's roster at the event will be:
Asger "AcilioN" Larsen
Emil "Magiskb0Y" Reif
Jacob "Pimp" Winneche
Andreas "MODDII" Fridh
Casper "cadiaN" Møller
