dignitas sign aizy

Team dignitas have announced that they have completed their lineup with the addition of Philip "aizy" Aistrup.

The Danish giants had been on the lookout for a new fifth player since dismissing René "cajunb" Borg following alleged internal problems in the team, who came in 3rd-4th at Copenhagen Games.

At first, dignitas considered picking up Nicolaj "Nico" Jensen, but then they turned to Philip "aizy" Aistrup, who had only recently left ESC Gaming for Reason.


aizy joins dignitas 

The UK-based organisation have now officially confirmed the move, which represents a huge boost for the team as Aistrup is widely considered to be one of the hottest rising talents in the Nordic region.

"Just a day after we went official with Reason Gaming, I received an offer from Team Dignitas, and I honestly had no doubts about accepting it," he told dignitas' website.

"I am happy that I have been given the chance to play for such a strong team as well as such a professional organisation. I want to thank Team Dignitas and their sponsors for supporting and trusting us."

dignitas now have the following quintet:

Denmark Andreas "Xyp9x" Højsleth
Denmark Nicolai "device" Reedtz
Denmark Henrik "FeTiSh" Christensen
Denmark Peter "dupreeh" Rasmussen
Denmark Philip "aizy" Aistrup

No. He is not a GTR, f0rest or shox. But name someone who has evolved as much as aizy in the last 6-9(approximately) months and I will shut up. This guy came from nowhere to surprise on local tournaments. Then he went semi-pro and now he is on the best team in the country, easily top10 world. All this in 6-9 months. Tell me someone who did that.

top10 world already? He is good but I wouldn't say top10.. or at least not yet. and to name some players that evolved a lot : kioshima, kqly, byali, snax, seized. These players were prob already known (except kqly maybe?) but still, they evolved a lot imo

oh ok, dignitas is at least a top4 team I would say that's why I was confused. Could be top2 but i'm waiting for some more lan results, hopefully the lineup will be stable. Now that he is in a better team, he will indeed progress even more than before.

I don't understand why everyone feels the need to compare him and cajunb. Comparing things is stupid. Nice move for dignitas, aizy will be a great fit.
