gla1ve joins n!faculty

17-10-2013 20:16

n!faculty have announced that oXzone member Lukas "gla1ve" Rossander has joined the team on a permanent basis.

The former Absolute Legends team have been in disappointing form since joining n!faculty in July, and not even the addition of Finn "karrigan" Andersen has turned things around.

Only in the last few days, n!faculty were handed a double blow: first, they were eliminated in the ESWC qualifier in the semi-finals, courtesy of SK Gaming. Then, they bowed out of the FACEIT Cup right in the first round, following a 16-6 thrashing at the hands of BZSX.

gla1ve signs for n!faculty

After rumours emerged on Wednesday in the Scandinavian scene that n!faculty had signed Lukas "gla1ve" Rossander, the German organisation have now come out to confirm those reports.

The former Western Wolves ingame leader, who has been playing for oXzone for the last few weeks, will step into the shoes of Jacob "pyth" Mourujärvi, who has been removed from the active lineup after expressing an interest in joining SK Gaming.

"We really respect his [pyth's] decision, but we are also questioning the sense of doing this one week before a major tournament while all trips are already booked," n!faculty CEO Christian Kresse said.

"He will be replaced by Lucas (gla1ve), who has turned in some great performances in the last months and we are looking forward to seeing how the team will handle the recent changes, especially at the upcoming RaidCall EMS finals."

Regarding SK Gaming's interest in Mourujärvi, Kresse stated that there have been no talks between the two organisations yet and that the player will not be released from his contract.

"It seems like some players of SK Gaming got in contact with Jacob and he informed us that he wants to play with them," he added.

"Nevertheless no one from SK Gaming has contacted us yet so Jacob will still be under contract with n!faculty until the end of the year."

This move leaves n!faculty with:

Markus "pronax" Wallsten
Alexander "rdl" Redl
Christian "Spitfire" Schiölde
Finn "karrigan" Andersen
Lukas "gla1ve" Rossander

2013-10-17 20:19

Hope Pyth ends up better in SK, otherwise it's all for nothing. Great player.

SK should pick up players from LGB.

We need glaive to form a new danish team to rule CPH Wolves. FU swedes. Glaive is properly the second best danish IGL. Karrigan is still too low in my opinion. Don't think this will have a big effect on the scene.

Glaive + who though?

I would like to split Awesome and Eyes On U. The problem in my point of view is that the danish scene has a lot of talent. But at the moment we see this talent spread all over top5 teams. Dream lineup (never going to happen): Glaive smF coloN Inzta LOMME Last spot is insanely tough, but lomme has suprised me so much during his short time in Awesome.

Nico?

2013-10-17 20:38

Haven't seen nico in ages. I remember him always being the one with the fewest amount of hours in WW, whenever i checked. coloN can easily replace him. He also has this aggressive style, although nico was a better firstpeaker, coloN is definitely a better clutcher.

2013-10-17 20:44

Nico "quit" some months ago. I have trouble wanting to put colon in a team because of his history as a pretty obvious cheater.

2013-10-17 20:52

3 replies

u know he proved himself on lan right?

2013-10-17 21:02

I understand your trouble. It has to do with morals, but you also have to recognize his talent. I can gurantee you 30% (estimate, red: A LOT) of former danish 1.6 pros had a cheating history. Colon has proven himself in this game several times offline. Once a cheater always a cheater is a caveman mentality. Look at this clip from last week. youtube.com/watch?v=xtFqgAzzKBE

2013-10-17 21:06

Pretty obvious cheater? I'm still waiting to see any evidence of that. I like you have '<3 SK Gaming' with Delpan in the team, who used to cheat back in the days, but nvm.

2013-10-18 02:09

smF sucks.

2013-10-18 12:14

I think he has a very solid aim. Who else would you pick from the scene? Many players have stepped down lately.

2013-10-19 01:38

idk , but if device cajun wantz trace cant .mmm maybe MSL or nille they arent that good but still better than smF

2013-10-19 20:56

U only mention players who has quit. Ofc. device would be on my dreamlineup, if he actually played. My list ONLY contains active people.

2013-10-19 22:21

msl or nille arent active?

2013-10-22 06:02

yea but the names above is much more interesting. :b IMO was nille and msl the ones who could be replaced in western wolves.

2013-10-22 21:45

Gla1ve Inzta Colon cajunb dev1ce If both cajun and dev1ce returns this would be insane!

2013-10-17 20:41

Absolutely agree. Except for cajunb. I don't know the man personally, but I sat right behind him last week at NPF. Never heard anyone flame his own team as much as him. :D

2013-10-17 20:47

He is known to kinda flame.

2013-10-18 16:04

both are playing atm :)

2013-10-17 21:01

Then they should make this happen! Maybe go for karrigan instead of cajun or dev1ce(because of his contract). Even though dev1ce probably is the best player in Denmark and top5 in the world

2013-10-17 22:04

in a good day yes. not doubt,.

2013-10-22 06:03

Do you know if device is planning a professional comeback sometime in the future?

2013-10-17 22:07

Device can't play because of the contract with CPH Wolves

Will karrigan ever stop turning decent Swedish teams to bad danish teams?

10 replies

LOL

actually true :D

2013-10-17 21:19

Karrigan is low

2013-10-17 21:25

When did I do that? I was in 1 team with swedes before that, it was fnatic - where Friis was the first dane? :-(

he is a troll. Karrigan ur amazing player. I liked u so much in 1.6

2013-10-18 02:36

No need to feed the 12y trolls. Good luck with the new lineup.

2013-10-18 12:42

2013-10-18 03:42

hahaha

2013-10-18 18:41

pyth was a best player of that team it is sad that he isn't playing with them anymore

2013-10-17 23:00

pyth and twist together please.. GL glaive and n!

2013-10-17 23:06

n! has been in bad form since lidde left and karrigan joined. i don't see them getting better with this move either. also, 2 IGL on one team? :X

2013-10-17 23:09

-cype +pyth or -pita +pyth or -xelso +pyth ?????????????

2013-10-17 23:27

2013-10-18 01:27

2013-10-18 09:53

cype

2013-10-18 02:04

Xelos is considered by many (including his teammates from what i can gather) to be the best rifler in SK. Pita is SK's super experienced IGL that can also madfrag. Are you this stupid?

2013-10-18 02:40

cs 1.6 best

2013-10-17 23:35

RIP nfaculty

2013-10-17 23:47

Pff, heavent even seen them play yet. They were one of the top teams in Sweden before this, i doubt that will change.

2013-10-18 00:07

they have been playing worse and worse, I can't see the potential in this anymore :/ they played a pretty weird match (messy and unsynchronized)w/ this lineup recently and they lost

2013-10-18 00:37

I haven't followed the scene in about 6 months... who's pyth and why is he good?

2013-10-18 01:20

well depends on how long have you been into the scene anyway :D Was a known swedish cs 1.6 player :D

2013-10-18 01:30

He sounds familiar... who did he play for?

2013-10-18 01:40

gl Jacob!!!!

2013-10-18 01:28

3-4weeks

well cype left sk-gaming in esea roster so obvly pyth gonna join soon play.esea.net/teams/75669?tab=roster

2013-10-18 01:59

as #102 stated -cype +pyth.. incredibly strong move by the SK lineup. pyth>98% of the world.

2013-10-18 03:44

The question is now "Who will be kicked from SK?" Chances are not Delpan or pita.

2013-10-18 04:09

Nico joins CPH

2013-10-18 07:25

Nico quit CSGO .

2013-10-18 07:26

4eva? :(

2013-10-18 13:46

It's fucking sad they lose clearly their best player :) Pyth played very well over a long period. Hope we get to see him on another top team when he comes to splitting even more.

2013-10-18 08:07

God damn it, it was so nice to have no SK drama in the scene for a while. Pity they didn't stay gone.

2013-10-18 08:34

pyth is my homeboy

2013-10-18 08:51

It seems twist isnt tagging SK anymore and doesnt have the SK logo on steam... & i confirmed that pyth and delpan are now steam friends so ^^

2013-10-18 10:49

Twist is a very good friend of cype. So SK about to lose two players of their current roster? Losing Twist for pyth would be painful in my opinion. But i wouldn't mind to see SK invest money to buy an Allstar Team ^^
