The German outfit avail themselves of two players from Playing Ducks, and qualify for ESEA Premier Season 19 as a result.

Since losing their Danish team back in December, myXMG have been fielding a German lineup. Since then, the team has taken part in numerous online leagues such as RGN, CEVO-P Season 7 placement, the GamePlan Pro League and others, to varying results.

Looking to bolster their firepower ahead of upcoming tournaments, myXMG have now acuired André "⁠Kirby⁠" Kempa and Jens "⁠shirox⁠" Wietow, two players who were previously on the Playing Ducks lineup (the latter as a back-up).

The move means that Patrick "⁠gimpen⁠" Heyer leaves the roster while the fifth slot on myXMG was often fielded by various players, meaning it is now locked-in for the team.

Kirby has moved with teammate shirox to myXMG

Kirby in particular was part of PD's active lineup recently, having travelled with the team this past weekend to the ESL Frühlingsmeisterschaft 2015 Finals where the team narrowly lost to ultimate finalists KILLERFISH.

As a result of this move, Playing Ducks' ESEA ESL Premier division slot has been given to myXMG, a significant opportunity for the team.

Playing Ducks founder Thorsten Mohr made this statement on losing two players:

"Shortly after have played the finals in Duisburg, we're announcing our first roster change. After 21 months under our banner, André "Kirby" Kempa left towards our colleagues from myXMG. With André in the team, we were able to win the league title in 2013 and get to the finals four times."
