steel fills in for mouz at ESEA LAN

4-12-2014 15:50

Former iBUYPOWER member Joshua "steel" Nissan has been added to mousesports' lineup for the ESEA Finals.

Joshua "⁠steel⁠" Nissan has been playing for Torqued in FACEIT's G2A.com December Cup after being released by iBUYPOWER last month together with Sam "⁠DaZeD⁠" Marine as the team took a new direction before DreamHack Winter.

The Canadian player was added this morning to mouz's ESEA lineup, just 24 hours before the start of the North American event, which will be held in Dallas.

There has so far been no confirmation on who Lucas "⁠steel⁠" Lopes will be replacing, but a Twitter post from Chris "⁠chrisJ⁠" de Jong suggests that he is the one unable to travel to the United States, reportedly because of visa problems.

GG :(

This is the second last-minute change for mousesports as the German team will also have to make do without Aleksi "⁠allu⁠" Jalli, who will be replaced by ALTERNATE's Fatih "⁠gob b⁠" Dayik.

If confirmed, mouz will attend the ESEA LAN with:

Johannes "⁠tabseN⁠" Wodarz
Nikola "⁠LEGIJA⁠" Ninić
Finn "⁠karrigan⁠" Andersen
Fatih "⁠gob b⁠" Dayik (stand-in)
Joshua "⁠steel⁠" Nissan (stand-in)

awesome!

dont underestimate the esea power of steel on us soil. they at least made finals with this move. also steel on lan>chris on lan.

If you really believe having yet another stand-in would benefit any team I feel sorry for you. This is no longer mouse playing, it's a mix of players. Such a silver comment.

this is literally a scrim team now. scrims upset. that is a fact. denial is online as fuck. elevate is old as fuck(also rush is online as fuck so count him out this lan) ibp? nice inferno t side strats. c9, underperforming like fuck. titan playing with a mediocre former pro who has been irrelevant since forever. also they re rusty. im not sure if fnatic can bypass esea's ac. this aint vac. steel in charge of 4 randoms would wreck those na team and their mediocre mm tactics. mind my saying those 4 randoms are much better than 4 randoms from na. etc. etc. shit teams, shit tourney. only solid team is vp, perhaps fnatic(if flusha krimz and olof performs, which i highly doubt)

settle down steel fanboi. lets not forget his time in EU accomplishing absolutely nothing and finally going back to play with dazed and getting carried by swag and skadoodle. Plus NA teams know how to play against scrimmy pug strats, thats all they play against there

fanboi i am. alas, he played with germans and brits. you know how that goes in this scene since ur a finn. irrelevant nations just stay there to get stomped, at least this dude had his name out there, also did pleasantly alright in css. also he kinda was the best guy on the team while he was still on eu, cosistently topfragging. was shitting other invitees and his mute teammates with a 150 ping. cheers.

dont get me wrong hes not a bad player but hes not gonna make much of a difference. If teams are smart and veto d2 and inferno, maps that you can easily pug against them, they dont stand a chance

well chrisj is back sooo. awkward. still. thats a shame.

2014-12-04 19:00

Well can agree with half of your saying, other half are nonsense... Mouz will get raped, with gob b who cant kill from behind 2stand in's = gg they will get raped in first game against c9 16-8, after fail on dh winter, the worst nightmare would be if they lose to mouzmix, wich will not happen

2014-12-04 16:26

i dunno much about the gob dude but still i think they have enough firepower to stomp teams with no solid tactics. if c9 continues to play like semphis is calling them they ll definitely get stomped. still its 50-50.

2014-12-04 16:32

steel is a good player, but you give him too much credit. I'll be surprised if he does anything noteworthy and doesn't just start flying off the handle and raging uncontrollably once they start to lose.

2014-12-04 17:42

big words my friend. you really think a pug is gonna beat VP or titan?

2014-12-04 16:17

vp unlikely. but titan? maybe. they were really bad after dreamhack stockholm, losing left and right, and then the kqly happened. ex6 started playing like he usually did. i dont think apex and kenny can carry them alone. also ex6 almost always chokes vs pug like tactics.

2014-12-04 16:22

ahahahahahahah

2014-12-04 16:59

nice going you managed to get me to watch p2k vs for 3 seconds.

2014-12-04 18:24

Of course it's chrisJ not able to go hahahahahaha

no wai!

2014-12-04 19:33

How is it a Dutch person is unable to get his VISA sorted before flying to America?

15 replies

Thats what happen when you dont get a visa in the right time.

13 replies

EU Citizens are not required to obtain visas to travel to US, never heard of Visa Waiver Program?

Thats what i mean. Thats what happen when u are doing these things too late.

2014-12-04 16:10

yes they are

2014-12-04 16:12

no not if you are part of the visa waivers program, which the netherlands are, so this is really weird

Yup probably not a visa problem

2014-12-04 16:24

Its a skill problem on LAN.

2014-12-04 16:38

lol'd

2014-12-04 16:43

You still need to do some paper work. It's easy but you need to think about it few weeks before. I guess Chris forgot about filling some papers or maybe his passport expired.

2014-12-04 17:03

The visa waiver program is almost instant and you could essentially do it at the airport 15 minutes before check-in opens. All it requires you to do is pay a small fee and fill in a form (online) and submit it.

2014-12-04 17:13

Thanks for telling me this, didnt know. Than i dont know what happened to Chris that he cant go ;(

2014-12-04 18:23

It took me somewhere around ten minutes to get it sorted out.

2014-12-04 17:21

Polish people sadly are, even though it's a super outdated policy and successive presidents have promised to work on the issue :(

2014-12-04 16:54

Not all EU citizens. It's dependent solely on country and has nothing to do with EU.

That's some cosmopolitan team I would say :D

"If confirmed, mouz will attend the ESEA LAN with: This means that mouz will attend the ESEA Finals with:" fix pls

This is quite embarrassing for mousesports :/

You know that getting Visa is kinda random, right?

2014-12-04 16:02

It's not..

he doesn't even need a visa as the netherlands belong to the visa waivers program.

2014-12-04 16:19

2014-12-04 16:42

ChrisJ dodging lan again :D ban this fag pls-.-

hahaha allu and chrisj two wallhacker not going play lan what a suprise

allu.. wallhacker? Whatever you've been smoking, I want that.

lmao allu hacker?

2014-12-04 18:00

Best line up EVER

im sure this will be great help for mousesports "onliner" image LOL

A team relying heavily on awpers without their 2 awpers on lan, GGWP

so true haha.. feels like their game is based on awp picks

Yup thats why theyre so good on mirage and dust2 :/

2014-12-04 16:25

hahaha fucking onliner shit GG indeed

2014-12-04 15:56

chrisJ nice dodge

ahahahaha this is getting better and better :D first mouse lifting now this from chris :D

epic landodge :D

lan dodger loL

HAHAHAHAHA AGAIN? so glad they are banned from the ESL league. What a faggot

chrisJ really don't care about his reputation.

Ofc he cares about his reputation? you probaly never had VISA problems because ur under 18.....

2014-12-04 16:03

OK mr hltv person.

epic international love Kappa

HAHAA

2014-12-04 15:59

where is allu? O_o

2014-12-04 16:00

he has exams so he cant attend

Why they even attend at all? These noobs will get rolled even by Denial LOL. Steel cant do it 1vs5

Okay stop taking meth it's not good for you mhhmkay?

You really think this "team" stands even a tiny chance? Delusional german fanboy.

2014-12-04 16:30

Im a fanboy for saying they will win vs Denial? No im not. Nobody in germany is an fan of the current mouz roster (atleast i hope so). You're the only one beeing delusional stating Denial would "roll over" mouz. Get a grip homie.

2014-12-04 18:39

dodgeJ

nice onlineJ

Mousesports world tour :D

And to think mouz used to have such a glorious team in the old days. Missed DH and now attending ESEA with a double stand-in. What's next?

Disband hopefully. A shame to a once great name.

2014-12-04 16:01

onlineJ scared of LAN.

2014-12-04 16:04

2014-12-04 16:18

5 Players from 5 different countries with 2 standins from 2 different countries and chrisJ is having diarrhea once again. Surprised the rest of the team even travels, maybe they didn't find any excuse. Just a typical day for mouz. LOL.

He avoids lans consciously, pretty reasonable for mousesports

OnlineJ pls, this team got even more random

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA offlineJ

2014-12-04 16:36

ChrisJ, I know you read HLTV. Can you confirm this?

Seems like it might be Karrigan that isnt going as it seems like he is going to Dignitas

2014-12-04 16:48

No IGL then

gob b :3

2014-12-04 17:43

gl steeeeeeeeeeel <3

The Visa Waiver Program (VWP) enables citizens of participating countries to travel to the U.S. for tourism or business for 90 days or less without obtaining a U.S. visa. The Netherlands participate in the VWP, so most Dutch citizens do not need a visa to travel to the U.S. However, they will need their own individual Dutch passport. Children included in their parent's Dutch passport need a visa, or must get their own individual passport in order to travel without a visa. All current Dutch passports meet the VWP requirements. gg

I dont believe ChrisJ. What a fuck is fhis? Steel is a good play, but mouses is always u and + 4.

wtf lol

lol mouz are fucked

Two best players missing for mouz at the only LAN they've been able to attend.... gg :)

2014-12-04 16:44

chrisJ best #1 lan dodger

ChrisJ being a passport holder of the Netherlands - one of the top10 most powerful passports in the world - can't get a visa? This is why you don't wait until the last second to get your shit in order.

2014-12-04 17:00

Ai yo, chris u here? another lan dodger huh. that is awesome :D

2014-12-04 17:08

2014-12-04 17:18

People calling steel "some one" and then calling Karrigan and gob b randoms...... Sad world we live in.

Really sad,10 yo attracted to the game for skins.

2014-12-04 18:50

pretty sure you care more about skins than anyone else since all you ever post about is betting and how you will do anything to win a bet.

2014-12-04 19:15

pretty sure you are retarded. I dont even bet skins anymore. Barely. Plus i dont even frequent hltv that much. Dont be butthurt dude. Feeling so sad for you.

2014-12-04 19:19

because they are both randoms in cs go while steel has won something.

2014-12-04 19:14

not bad!!

2014-12-04 17:25

Right choice, bcuz its LAN and they need someone to carry. tabsen & legija awerage MM skills, gob b is just a stand in. karrigan? wtf they even pick him? TOO LOW
