Vox Eminor add jks

22-4-2014 13:00

Vox Eminor has announced a lineup change bringing in young gun Justin "jks" Savage for the exiting Iain "SnypeR" Turner.

This marks the first lineup change for Vox Eminor since CS:GO was released, and with the team recently showing mixed results overseas a change needed to be made. The team is hoping the addition of Savage will bolster their fragging potential domestically and abroad.

Savage is no stranger to competitive Counter-Strike having competed in the highest division of CS 1.6 since the age of eleven and dominating the scoreboards each time.

jks signs for Vox Eminor

Vox Eminor's player Manager Chris "GoMeZ" Orfanellis had the following to say:

"Justin has been on our radar for a very long time. His ability to multi-frag early and win one vs X situations late in the round is what stood out to us the most.

"He is also at an age where he will be more mature and be able to play a role within a team. After seeing other international teams have great success with bringing in younger players like byali or scream we decided to step out of our comfort zone and make a lineup change.

"This lineup change has also given a momentum boost to our four remaining players who have a second wind now to compete at the highest level. We cannot wait to return to Europe with our new roster and get the results we deserve."

"I would like to thank Iain for all the hardwork and fun times we had as a team on our adventures abroad, the memories will last a lifetime."

With Turner's departure, the team now stands as:

Chad "SPUNJ" Burchill
Azad "topguN" Orami
Luke "havoc" Paton
Aaron "AZR" Ward
Justin "jks" Savage

2014-04-22 17:12

I recently saw he final of an aus. league where vox lost, was he on that team by chance?

2014-04-22 19:40

Nah, Jks wasn't playing for Vox Eminor at that time. Snyper was still in the lineup. :)

2014-04-23 02:20

i think he was talking about the enemy team ._.

2014-04-23 13:19

Opponents I meant ^-^

Oh, right. Then nope, Jks wasn't on the opponent's team either. :P That team was fakedaN r0b pzKiD pay8ack and USTILO.

2014-04-23 13:59

Oh yeah those names do sound familiar! Thanks alot!

2014-04-23 20:01

my god looooool sick

2014-04-23 03:52

looking forward to see them play

2014-04-22 13:04

"Savage is no stranger to competitive Counter-Strike having competed in the highest division of CS 1.6" never heard about a competitive Australian team neither this player in 1.6, if i'm not mistaken ! ( but GL as an old 1.6er :D )

I'm 99% sure Gomez was talking about locally specifically, as JKS played 'division 1' 1.6 in Australia.

2014-04-22 13:11

i see ! i thought they were talking about old competitive challenging teams in 1.6 era; if you know what i mean, thnx anyway mate ;)

2014-04-22 13:15

I'm sure Gomez will comment here somewhere he hangs out on hltv lots, you could ask him if you see him :)

2014-04-22 13:39

he's referring to the australian domestic scene. There were good australian teams throughout 1.6 the issue was mainly finding sponsor funding to send them overseas.

2014-04-22 13:13

Yeah i see ;) thnx

2014-04-22 13:16

Actually, we were able to watch Immunity in some tournaments in Europe. Good ol' days when we had teams from everywhere... Korea is one of them :)

2014-04-22 15:59

functionzer0/exhale/iCHOR/MushiN all represented Australia overseas. JKS played at a time when alot of the scene had died up. I had the privilege of playing against jks a few times in scrims. I must say his aim and sense is second to none but in GO i must fear that the game is more suited to retards who get lucky hopefully his skill can outshine offline.

Good luck boyss

Is my memory deceiving me or did SnypeR top frag at dreamhack? (Even though they didn't get far.)

You're thinking too shallow, I'm sure the Management made the right decision.

2014-04-23 02:00

I haven't expressed what I was thinking anywhere? I was simply asking a question. Do you know if he did or not?

2014-04-23 09:10

He didn't top frag but he did well

2014-04-24 03:52

do not rate, only when i join.

Did SnypeR just get replaced or is there more to it then that?

agree

2014-04-22 13:19

For which team he was playing recently ?

2014-04-22 13:22

he played with salmon who had gazr, yaman, benor, teddyt but i think the team must have died (?)

2014-04-22 23:03

Wut? Wut? Wut? Similar players like byali and scream??? lol jks is so overrated by equalizing with byali and scream...

2014-04-22 13:23

it's hard to understand what you actually said? but unless you follow the Australian scene a lot, how do you know he isn't as good as those players?

2014-04-22 13:57

as in an old team taking on a new young player.

2014-04-22 14:14

Hey Gomez, do you know if synper is lft?

2014-04-22 14:25

it isn't a skill comparison, read again.

Awesome news for VOX. Can't wait to see them have another crack.

2014-04-22 13:25

I think SPUNJ was their weak link at EMS ONE, I hope he can step up his game, with him fragging more they can become a team to watch for

2014-04-22 13:30

he is the caller. I'm sure it will come with time, they are still really inexperienced against EU and NA teams.

ok , that's good to know

2014-04-22 14:00

still he should step up

2014-04-23 03:55

yeah I think he will given time. I watch quite a lot of Australian games and he always frags on them.

2014-04-23 12:47

u gotta be jks

I seem to recognise that policy from another website I used to use quite regularly...

2014-04-22 15:38

You can add banned accounts to the list. If [insert name] got fucking destroyed by valid arguments, the hammer slammed after a few minutes. It followed with comments on a personal level but dare if you countered those. It was like being in court. The judge can say whatever but if you go against him with the same methods, you get jailtime. xDDDDD

2014-04-22 17:11

Been there, done that, got the ban hammer a fair amount of times. I assume we're both talking about the same subject here...

2014-04-23 13:57

hahahaha

2014-04-22 20:16

2014-04-22 13:44

He has the potential!!.Goodluck :)

2014-04-22 13:45

hahahaha "...in the highest division of CS 1.6 since the age of eleven and dominating the scoreboards each time."

2014-04-22 13:46

agreed they are missing the word 'Australian' somewhere in there.

2014-04-23 03:49

Gg kangaroo eaters

2014-04-22 13:47

I feel sorry for Vox. If their team was based in Europe I think they would have a real chance of making it. The price of attending Lans on a regular basis to face the top teams is screwing them over.

2014-04-24 16:00

Sick news!

all eyes will be on him for sure, good luck to voxe and jks hope this change is gonna work out for them! GO VOXE!

who gives a shit, pay8ack and r0b are the best players in australia

2014-04-22 14:20

@m0nt ur forgetting some1 m8..

2014-04-24 07:44

Main improvement voxe could make based off those 2 inferno games is to know when to contest 1v3 and when to just stay alive in site without overpeaking and not give it away before team rotates

2014-04-22 14:24

aka be careful not to throw like titan. they still havent learned when to repeak or dont seem to care

very helpful

2014-04-22 14:28

cheers brah. no doubt theyve already rewatched a million times

2014-04-22 14:45

Big pick up.

2014-04-22 14:50

JKS was an up and coming 1.6 monster from what I remember.

2014-04-22 14:52

add benoR already :P

2014-04-22 15:04

I can't begin to explain how good of a move this was, no offence to snypeR, but jks is in my opinion the top player in aus, or at very least top4. And a humble guy! he will fit into the team well, GL

2014-04-22 15:09

hes actually very arrogant

2014-04-22 15:13

arrogance isn't exactly all a bad thing in sports, playing with confidence is huge @ LAN probz why he shits on cunts ;o

2014-04-22 15:25

yea JKS is a spastic cunt, i guess it would make sense to add him to a team with AZR

2014-04-24 07:45

very very goud player but.. "Savage is no stranger to competitive Counter-Strike having competed in the highest division of CS 1.6 since the age of eleven and dominating the scoreboards each time." really? correct me if im wrong but he was in his bro's team; dbs, konny etc? fair sure they struggled to place top4 consistently in their own state.

2014-04-22 15:22

they beat fzer0 on lan and placed 4th at WCG AU.

2014-04-22 15:32

fair call

2014-04-22 15:34

question is , why is vox eminor always invited to 250k tournaments ? doesn't seem fair to other AUS teams who are competing with vox and beat them too

2014-04-22 15:30

Up until MSi BEAT IT, vox had won ALL events in Australia, completely undefeated for about 2 years. Vox then won the AU qualifier for MSI BEAT IT. That event was used to invite us to EMS. Vox is still undefeated on LAN in CS:GO.

2014-04-22 15:35

I actually don't question vox as a team , but for the other teams to at least have a shot there need to be a qualification tournament . no ?

2014-04-22 15:40

yea 100%, MEKA.TT and 4Not are very good teams and could qualify for future events.

2014-04-22 15:45

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

2014-04-23 02:43

i do agree though, more qualifiers = more cs to watch pls.

2014-04-22 23:14

it's fair because for the past 2 years voxe have won unscathed. it's only this last competition that voxe have gone down to other AUS teams.

2014-04-22 15:36

ty and also #74

2014-04-22 15:41

gl to snyper with w/e he decides to do next. Possibly WA's most successful player ever, at anything, has played longer then just about everyone. Sad to see him leave, hope Vox gave him a happy sendoff, the guy deserves a lot of credit for his contribution to the various cs communities over the years.

2014-04-22 20:28

2014-04-22 21:38

2014-04-23 08:59

The kid cheated heavily in 1.6 LOL

2014-04-23 11:15

He didn't cheat in 1.6. There's always going to be a stand out in any circumstance, whether it's sport or academic or video games. He was just one of them, and everyone accused him who weren't good enough to beat him.

2014-04-23 13:32

youtube.com/watch?v=G7DUDzWDjIo Suraya he has awesome aim/good brain from 1.6

2014-04-24 04:07

The beginning of the end for voxe. JKS stronk, but I think everyone's caught up. Scene in Aus is getting pretty strong, wish we had more chance to compete globally.
