Karont3 drop CS:GO team

Karont3 have parted company with their CS:GO squad, HLTV.org has learned.

The Spanish team were in action at Copenhagen Games last week, being sent to the event's B tournament after losing to EYES ON U and Quantic Gaming in the qualifier.

Karont3 went on to win the B tournament, which featured teams like Heroic, Vitriolic and CPLAY, defeating Derailed in the final to win hardware prizes from Roccat.

It has now been revealed that Karont3 has stopped supporting CS:GO, a decision that was not made based on the team's results at Copenhagen Games.


Karont3 at Cph Games

According to Arturo "sukitRon" Gil, the team had long known that they would have to go freelance, but still attended the Danish event as Karont3 had promised to send them there.

"We are on the lookout for an organization that we can help grow and that can help us grow, one that takes this as seriously as we do," Gil told HLTV.org.

"We will stay together and work hard to materialize all the potential this team has. We will continue to be one of the teams that train the most in Europe and will not make any roster change (pretty weird trait nowadays).

"We want to qualify for the ESEA Invite next season(if we are not qualified already) and go to as many events as possible.

Therefore, if any organization out there is interested in my team, please feel free to contact me by e-mail at [email protected].

"I'd like to thank Karont3 for this 10 months together, it`s definitely been an enriching experience that helped me mature in-game and as a person, I wish them the very best in the future."

The Spanish team are through to the Grand Final of the ESEA-Open playoffs, in which they are waiting for the team to come from the Lower Bracket. The team's lineup is the following:

Venezuela Arturo "sukitRon" Gil
Spain David "Kairi" de Miguel
Spain José Vicente "Spanisfury" González Moreno
Spain Juan Carlos "meisoN" Chacón
Spain Daniel "kAlAs" Guinard

So weird, they represented karonte really good in my opinion. The qualifier was a bit unlucky but still.

Probably because their Starcraft 2 squad can represent the team better, so they'll save those extra funds for Starcraft.

"We will stay together and work hard to materialize all the potential this team has. We will continue to be one of the teams that train the most in Europe and will not make any roster change (pretty weird trait nowadays)." Can't be serious.Anyways they are not even close to spanish top so they are deserved kicked imo apart from having great players in the other sections.

ASES won spanish EPS even though karont3 didn't. I don't even know about what match are you talking me about but spanish EPS i guess it's the most important spanish tournament and ASES won it and at LAN. Please don't even compare me players like Aguila with...i don't know any of karont3. Please.karont3 is a great org with such great top european players at SC2 they can't waste money in a team who even reaches the top at their nation.

Ur clearly standing up for ASES, i am not doing the same for Karont3 so you can keep talking alone but in facts ASES has played only 1 time vs Karont3 (in the LVP), and they lost easy way.. So for the moment, Karont3 1-0 ASES Keep exited about onliner results but stay away from me with that bullshit haha, only the finals was in lan

hahaha you are the one standing up them lol...they even got a top3 in the EPS but hey...they are just better. Are you for any reason calling ASES onliners? Sincerely...you are retarded and you are the one in the k3 side. I just said they don't deserve to be there and THEY ARE NOT AS good as ASES. End of everything. They even proof theirselves at spanish EPS which is a shame. I think ANY european TOP30 can manage to do a top2 in spanish eps.

I really like how Karont3 plays, Kairi is a very smart player and he has been with the best spanish players in the past, so he knows of what is this game about. But I don't see them above ASES. You can say that they won them easily but the fact is that LVP is a minor tournament while ASES won the EPS season. Karont3 didn't even manage to get to the finals. Anyway I think they can do better in the future.

erm ok i saw them playing and they are under ASES so hard. I'm not gonna say anything about how they play individually but meh...they are not even top3 at spanish EPS and he is just trying to get the point on calling ASES "onliners" because they didn't play each other against at LAN.

Well not being even near to the top of Spain is being bad so yes, i meaned that by myself and well, if you can read then pay attention to this one becouse it wont happend again So follow slowly: There is no truth on your statment okey?, If you really believe that ASES gona easily win ex-Karont3(roster) when they meet in lan then your the only one... or at least you have no clue at all, almost like a brain damaged at its best

They were unlucky with the brackets at CPH, so i think it´s a bit sad for them. It´s expensive to take these guys around the world, though. I guess that exclude some of the german organisations. Dunno about spanish/portugese organisations.
