CMAX.gg loses CS 1.6 Team

3-1-2008 17:47

Today it has been announced that CMAX.gg has lost their CS 1.6 team. The Finnish team formally known as Logitech moved to CMAX.gg late last year where they failed to qualify at KODE5 Netherlands where they finished second overall. The team did managed to win the ASUS Autumn 2007.

CMAX.gg pulled out of NGL-One and they are still in the ESL Extreme Masters in a group with ALTERNATE aTTaX, McPoker.emL, x6tence, wooSai and Playzone.

CMAX.gg captain Slaava 'Twista' Rasanen said that the team was not happy with the terms of partnership with the server company and that they failed to for fill promises.

Rasanen told GotFrag.com.

"CMAX.gg is a game-server provider, not an organisation,
They can't really fulfill our needs, so this step was a necessary one."

The Finnish team has ended the deal with CMAX.gg but according to Twista, they will still play for CMAX.gg until they find a new organization.

CMAX.gg is:

Antti "Shiri" Makinen
Matti "SPIKEONE" Jarvinen
Slaava "Twista" Rasanen
Tino "tihOp" Puumala
Konsta "kookas" Kaisla

sad news :(

Why sad ? They don't quit CS or fall apart as a team, they just part ways with CMAX.gg. It's normal, the guys search for a normal organization. It's a good team, so I don't think they'll have any problem finding one.

I suppose it wont be too hard for them to find another team :)

69N28E is Team Roccat, if you followed everything on HLTV you would know that. 69N28E and Team Roccat is the same organisation. Team Logitech and CMAX.gg is two different organisations though. Edit: 68N28E is a position in Finland i think. That was what it was all about.

If the internal communication and management didn't work probberly for the players, I guess this was a good decision for the players? - Don't think they'll have trouble finding another organisation? :) gl to former CMAX ;)
