aizy signs to G2

12-11-2015 17:41

G2.Kinguin have announced that they have acquired the services of dignitas's Philip 'aizy' Aistrup for an undisclosed fee.

Following the simultaneous announcement that fnatic have decided to sign G2 Swede Dennis "⁠dennis⁠" Edman to their team in lieu of Markus "⁠pronax⁠" Wallsten's departure, it has now been announced that G2 in turn acquired the services of Philip "⁠aizy⁠" Aistrup of dignitas to fill out their squad.

aizy shined at the CEVO Season 8 finals last weekend with a consistent performance that turned heads and a transfer fee has now been paid by G2 with the organisation buying the player out from dignitas.

aizy will join G2's ranks following dennis' departure

The Danish player has been a part of the current dignitas team since its inception at the beginning of this year, and was a part of the CPH Wolves core before that as well.

aizy released a statement on his signing:

"I am happy to announce that I am officially a part of G2. I am glad that I have got the chance to play for such a skilled team and for such a professional organisation. I am very much looking forward to making an impact with these guys, and hopefully we will do big things! I would also like to thank dignitas for having me during all this time, and the players there."

This acquisition by G2 now means that the team comprises one Swedish player, two Norwegians, one Dane, and one Portuguese player, bringing the squad more back in line with its pan-European beginnings.

G2 now have the following roster:

Mikail "⁠Maikelele⁠" Bill
Ricardo "⁠fox⁠" Pacheco
Håvard "⁠rain⁠" Nygaard
Joakim "⁠jkaem⁠" Myrbostad
Philip "⁠aizy⁠" Aistrup

dignitas have now been reduced to a four-man roster, which the team will have to either fill with a stand-in or with a new player ahead of the team's matches taking place today.

Jacob "⁠Pimp⁠" Winneche
Markus "⁠Kjaerbye⁠" Kjærbye
Mathias "⁠MSL⁠" Lauridsen
Jesper "⁠TENZKI⁠" Plougmann

aizy will be seen in action for G2 today as the team have multiple upcoming games in the next few hours.

LMAO bb pronax

cuz dennis want to play with fnatic, and i think he is part of fnatic team now tbh

2015-11-12 17:43

Not bb pronax. He said he wants to try something new in 2016. Likely going to NiP.

you're right! :D

2015-11-12 18:33

2015-11-12 23:39

lmao

dennis [*]

WOW

WTF IS HAPPENING

I'm not sure if this is an upgrade or not for G2..

Imo it's the best player to replace dennis. Aizy is skilled enough to take his place in the team and fnatic looks now way to sick.

2015-11-12 17:46

agree

2015-11-12 17:50

I know aizy is skilled but if anything it should be the weakest player that has to be replaced, not dennis.

Have you even read? Dennis didn't get "replaced" he left, got bought out by fnatic.

K then.

OMG this firepower on G2 is RIDICILOUS!!

yep...honestly its a huge upgrade for them...aizy is just on fire atm

2015-11-13 07:48

wot

g2 stronger now guys ? i are think that

2015-11-12 17:44

Lmao I F5 HLTV and suddenly dennis in fnatic, aizy in G2

Same here! I was like, oh great MTG buys out Dreamhack - who gives a shit... Then, "PRONAX LEAVES FNATIC" and "G2 GETS STRONGER". Whirlwind

2015-11-12 20:01

rip dennis

finally aizy is able to play on a good team

HOLY

w0w , gl aizy!

OMG

RIP Dignitas

Your topic is "aizy signs g2" WHO THE FK CARES, the topic should be "Pronax leaving fnatic, Dennis replaces"

+10000

Did you read the other article? Mad sweeeed.

2015-11-12 18:10

2015-11-12 18:35

I forgive you

expected af now g2 are a real team, i mean, powerful, that can disable nV, TSM, Fnatic... and battle for #1 in majors this is fucking amazing <3 ACELELE

[*]

LOL???!! that was rly unexpected!

OMFGG

HOLY SHITBALLS

dignitas sign hunden

Now that's hell of a good news for Aizy.

THAT'S WHAT IM TALKING BOUT!

WHAT IS GOING ON

ayyyyyyy

Well, aizy is sick. I would like g2 all the best, but i hope im wrong that without dennis this team would not be what they used to be.

Pronax rage quit, now dennis is on a team with crybabies JW and Flusha... At least Aizy now has a good team :D

2015-11-12 18:22

Really nice pick up after dennis left. This definetely make G2 stays strong.

Pimp to sk and just disband dignitas :D

LOL

c9 get_right c9 pronax confirmed

what a ugly man , scarface

nt Snax

2015-11-12 18:00

What does that even matter?

2015-11-12 18:09

Unless you didn't notice, G2 doesn't compete in a fucking beauty contests but in Counter Strike. And if those 2 would be anywhere near to simillar, I don't think that Fnatic could have won 3 major titles :D

2015-11-12 18:26

G2 can live with this, happy for him and dennis!

what the actual fuck

Expected. Now aizy doesn't have to carry that hard

2much firepower on T side from G2.

why not RUbino????

WTF WTF WTF

2015-11-12 17:52

dennis gona join fnatic

2015-11-12 17:57

nip probably KappaRoss

only just saw the other post. rip nips chance to win

-lele +dennis = dreamteam

gj aizy. expected

ahahahhaha this is amazing Since begining the community is saying that fox should be the first one leaving skytten scream dennis More to follow... XD

2015-11-12 17:53

I know, right? I am laughing to all fox haters as well :D

Two of them got bought though and fox was the odd man on the team when you look at it in a geographical and linguistic sense. It would have made sense if he were one of the first. fox started out slow but have proven he deserved his spot in the team and have become more comfortable playing in a mixed team like this is.

2015-11-12 18:47

+1 i said that trolling xD

2015-11-12 19:32

Aizy is a better ak/colt player then Dennis, and Dennis is a better awp/pistol player then Aizy... so for g2 that already got fox and maikelele its at perfect signing of Aizy

Ez K0nfig to dignitas

Bah i arent think that Cioè non lo penso minimamente

I told you man hltv.org/news/16362-dignitas-add-k0nfig-..

2015-11-12 23:09

wtf how :D

Well, that's an improvement! Nice!

#EUROshuffle inc!!!

scandinavian shuffle inc*

2015-11-12 23:33

finally aizy with a good team he had like 200 frags in his last 3 bo3s and didnt win a single one :D

Yep finally Finalmente santo dio per un player della madana serviva un team della madana

haha hunden e dio

I arent think that u.u

"undisclosed fee" Jim White approves. Where's sky sports news hq to report the complete of the signing and is the medical done?

HOLLLLEEEEEEE SHIET

The only hope in dignitas I think is bringing in k0nfig or one of SK beast, just as Acillion. But lets see what happens.

bb dignitas,no more aizy carry 2 win

Rip Dig

Schneider?

unexpected. gl aizy!11

2015-11-12 17:58

i feel like aizy=dennis with rifles so g2 dont really lose much besides they cant really speak swedish anymore when fox dies.. thats about it

rifles maybe aizy slightly > dennis but dennis can awp

2015-11-12 18:02

who cares if dennis can awp, they got both fox and eksem

2015-11-12 19:14

AIZY SKINS

gl aizy, gl g2, major final inc <3 probably bb dignitas, no carry anymore

also sick

sick line up

G2 honestly going to be fighting TSM and Envy for the numero uno spot now.

rip dig

in shock

aizy skins

BOTnax

fuck you dennis. i love G2 (

Zonic back in the game!

DAFUQ?

What a mess

2015-11-12 18:01

finally aizy in G2 thats what im talking about! but didn't expect its to replace dennis...

G2 win next major cumfirmed

rip dignitas and g2

glad for aizy, deserve a better team than dignitas

GOD HUNDEN ON DIGNITAS PLEASE!

Dignicrap sinking ship ;-) just like SKaka, they both wont enter top5 (not even top10) at events/majors, mark my words bruhs.

Lelz 5 clutch players on G2, maikel clutches vs mouz, fox clutches vs nV, rain clutches vs nV, jkaem clutchs vs VP and now aizy who was the clutch player for dignitas

and absolutely 0 leadership without dennis now, need - fox + pronax

2015-11-12 18:03

rain is their igl and they are bringing in coach yes pronax for igl coach

Rain is IGL and Maikelele is team leader. Nice try idiot. :)

2015-11-12 18:11

you can make anyone leader on paper, doens't mean he will be good at it

2015-11-12 18:18

G2 top4, almost top2 in Major with that leader combo. :)

2015-11-12 18:20

curious to see how this will pan out.

Wow :o

Dennis>aizy

ooookay

2015-11-12 18:05

lol i knew it, i even called this on forum like 2 weeks ago... A bet maikelele will move to NiP soon too

pronax to NiP boyzzz

sorry, but i think its "rip dignitas"

EXPECTED LOL

wow huge news.. not sure how i feel about it

k0nfig will take it :)

Well, G2 now looks strong as hell. So much firepower and raw talent in the team at this moment.

Ez Aizy, ez European team:P

2015-11-12 18:07

I feel bad for dignitas, they have improved a lot

nice to see aizy in strong team

Well played by G2. And well deserved by aizy. He really deserved something better and a team that is actually evolving and becoming better every day. Great move.

if -fox +pronax g2 top 3

damn g2 look great

I went for a coffe, when I came back all this shit happens. jeezzzz

2015-11-12 18:12

cadiaN to Dignitas would be my best bet.

nah, I would say k0nfig.

2015-11-12 18:13

Sad for G2, they showed so much, but they will become like Arsenal. Reviving and making t1 players for others, rip, expecting from aizy to shine even more

-fox +dennis

-KKKK_KR +ur mum

2015-11-12 18:16

dignitas disband

but remember, dennis was THE guy who makes G2 / kinguin relevant, now they lost their gel guy

2015-11-12 18:14

Aizy still a godlike player, G2 and Fnatic are in good shape, but Dignitas is pretty fucked.

agreed, back to the failsquad that was kinguin

You forgot about their best player, Rain. Jkaem has also been better than dennis after he joined the team.

2015-11-13 00:35

I don't really think this is an upgrade or downgrade for the team, aizy has been so good past couple of months.

and NiP still in their shitty line up

so how much longer before we see -fox +schneider?

2015-11-12 18:17

Very long. Why would theyk ick a player who was carrying them on a major alongside with jkaem?

communication probably. plus i don't think it's a question that schneider is a better overall player than fox

2015-11-12 18:24

They stated many times that the whole team has no problem with communication in English. And now when they have Aizy there is no reason to want to switch in calling in Swedish since he would not understand properly as well.

2015-11-12 18:28

i know they say that, but i don't know how much i buy it. maybe i'm wrong, but fox having one decent tournament isn't enough to convince me he needs to stay. only time will tell

2015-11-12 18:29

k0nfig inc

Everybody thought that G2 is screwed after ScreaM left and jkaem proved everyone wrong. Aizy is a beast and I think he is a good replacement. The team looks so strong now in the terms of firepower and a raw talent. I believe this will make G2 only stonger.

2015-11-12 18:19

damn

ofcourse this is upgrade dennis is overrated in csgo

Wtf

sad for dignitas :( hope they can replace him!

2015-11-12 18:21

thank god hunden is available

u forgot kappa :D

2015-11-16 13:31

What is this madness 0.o What does pronax do now???

G2s aim just got even more ridiculous :D

gl g2

K0nfig to Dig or ?

Great job dig you let them "buy out" your best player.

2015-11-12 18:27

Congratulations. Very much deserved.. I wish you the best of luck, even though i'm sure you not going to need it! Beast!

+1 he deserved to be on a better tier team GL aizy!

2015-11-12 20:31

aizy finally gets the team he deserves!

sik

RiP dignitas now they are totally worthless

2015-11-12 18:31

2015-11-12 18:32

first

Aizy deserves that spot

wtf

-fox +k0nfig, maybe? :P

Expected that aizy would leave Digshitas unexpected that it's G2 :@

2015-11-12 18:37

dignitas disband inc

K0nfig to dignitas

2015-11-12 18:39

RIP G2

pimp left dig, k0nfig and rubino joined dig

2015-11-12 18:40

Holy shit 2222

2015-11-12 18:42

YES im pumped to see Aizy being in a team with players of his calibre :D

damn #2

aizy needed a better team than shit dignitas anayway!! good move

2015-11-12 18:58

GL aizy, don't suck like ScreaM did in G2/Titan.

When I'm #SwedenShuffle youtube.com/watch?v=IJMWumotUvw&feature=.. !

tsm is fucked, they should have picked aizy now too late , soon g2 will destroy them

2015-11-12 18:59

Called this during the major and was told it'd never happen. Although I called fox out and aizy in.

2015-11-12 19:01

Kick fox. Bring allu. You will have Scandinavian team. Bring pronax to NIP. Fuck yeah.

For the last time, Finland is not part of Scandinavia...

2015-11-12 19:11

Too bad. They have "similar" flag. Still kick fox and get a second Swedish player.

2015-11-12 21:38

Since I can't edit my post below I'll post here. I did research and indeed it is true. Finland is NOT part of Scandinavia. I mistaken Scandinavia with Nordic countries. My bad.

2015-11-12 21:56

fox > allu. And finnish(finlandia language) is as far from Norwegian/Swedish/Danish as finnish are.

2015-11-13 00:31

RIP dignitas.

2015-11-12 19:06

New G2 > old G2 anyways Pronax to Nip confirmed

2015-11-12 19:08

aizy skins, aizy life!

2015-11-12 19:13

I'm calling it right now: In 2016 when NiP contracts expire, G2 will -fox -aizy +2 from NiP When TSM fail to make it into top2 or top4 in next major, they will -Xyp9x or cajunb +aizy

Won't be suprised seems like G2 is a place where players play untill a team they want to play for picks them up. eg. ScreaM and now Dennis Won't be surprised if Maikelele leaves if NiP ask him to come back ( I'm not saying they will)

2015-11-12 21:06

Well, Dennis went to a better team and a better org, cant say the same about Scream, titan is clearly a downgrade from g2.

2015-11-13 04:34

why dennis, why?

2015-11-12 19:24

i prefer dennis, but lets see how aizy are good.

2015-11-12 19:30

n1 xD

2015-11-12 19:33

AIZY AND DENNISMEISTER GL GL GL

2015-11-12 19:37

Top 1 inc? I aren't think that but maybe?

2015-11-12 19:40

Yes they can become top1 I are think too. Too much raw skill in one team.

2015-11-12 19:48

The beginning of the end for G2.. ggwp, it was fun!

2015-11-12 19:47

they said the same with scream

2015-11-13 01:05

Why Dennis why? :(

Hopefully he gets comfortable here, really sick player, deserves a shot with a good team!

2015-11-12 19:51

good luck

2015-11-12 20:17

G2 Norwegian team now

2015-11-12 20:19

Byebye g2 :(

Sad too see dennis leave but aizy is a fucking good replacement

2015-11-12 20:26

FUCK ME G2 SHOULD ADD PRONAX AND THEY WILL WIN THE MAJOR

2015-11-12 20:37

rofl stupid move by G2... dennis>aizy any day, any time aizy had 1 good lan and now he's great player? rofl tell me why he got kicked from dignitas? because he didn't show up

2015-11-12 20:43

12 replies

salty VP fanboy still crying :D aizy carrying Dignitas from the beggining of it's new roster. He was kicked from old dignitas cuz he was onliner and couldn't resist the pressure,now he is capable of doing it,that's why he is a god youngster,as Niko.

2015-11-12 21:20

let's w8 but imo they will kick him in few months

2015-11-12 21:24

i dont think aizy>dennis right now but no way aizy not a bad player he is just monster and with few months he will be carrying G2 imo And another for me -fox or maikelele +pronax as igl then G2 tier 1 and top3

2015-11-12 21:31

dude,they reached semifinal of the major with rain IGLing,can u imagine if they will add pronax as a coach?They will definetely be 1 of the best teams in the world.AS i wrote that G2 now are looking for a coach,after departure of LEGIJA

2015-11-12 21:36

But they didn't have to choice to keep dennis. They were nice to let him go to fnatic.

lol so funny to see this comment aizy has been carrying Dignitas for idk since how long ago. he just stood out more this major because his team mates played extremely bad. and sorry can't agree that dennis > aizy, not saying aizy > dennis now but in the future definitely he will be.

2015-11-13 02:20

aizy has been carrying Dignitas lmao they kicked him from dignitas because he was underperforming big time and you wrote that he was their main carry ROFL

2015-11-13 02:50

hltv.org/?pageid=246&playerid=8095&stats.. ?

2015-11-13 03:50

ROFL. nice. Let stats prove him wrong. You honestly think they KICKED aizy, not aizy being picked up by G2? G2 is obviously a better team than Dig atm.

2015-11-13 07:29

You know that I meant old dignitas with device, fetish right?

2015-11-13 08:12

U are one stupid polak.

2015-11-13 12:15

"now means that the team comprises one Swedish player, two Norwegians, one Dane, and one Portuguese player, bringing the squad more back in line with its pan-European beginnings." lol, 4 people who speak pretty much the same language and 1 guy who speaks Portuguese... very diverse ;)

So a team with players from Jamaica, England, Singapore, USA and Nigeria wouldnt be a international team since english is prmiary language in those countries? ;)

fnatic with dennis will be beast again and G2 (sadly that dennis left becuz he was getting stronger and stronger again) but i think aizy is on his skill level so G2 will do great in future as well... nice for aizy, it wa so sad to see him at dreamhack cluj carrying so hard and lose nevertheless

g2 owner ocelote is the biggest fucking faggot there is, hope he enjoys ruining his own teams for more money fuck this guy so much

2015-11-13 12:20

he didn't ruin shit.He actually did better for his players.Scream always wanted to play in a french speaking team,that's why he let him go and got money for it.Same story with dennis,he wanted to play with his biggest friend Olof and ofc wanted to play in Fnatic,he gave him that opportunity and got money for it. Don't u think that it's better to keep team motivated to play and better bring in someone who rly wants to play for this team,than keeping smbd who doesn't feek comfotable playing with his team,cuz his organisation owners have such a big ego,that they can't sell him to the team he wants to play in?I think they did a good think,letting him go.
