Former SK duo in new team

Several Danish talents including Danny 'BERRY' Krüger and Rasmus 'SandeN' Sanden formerly of SK Gaming as well as the likes of Christian 'rezex' Bjerregaard formerly of CG have formed a new lineup.

An inchoate version of the Danish lineup now known as 123team was spotted playing in the online qualifiers for the Pantamera CS:GO Challenge.

The team comprises Danny "⁠BERRY⁠" Krüger, the 25-year-old player having been a longtime staple of the Danish scene (seen competing since at least 2007) and with previous stints on the likes of SK, Xapso, and CPLAY.

Joining him is another former SK member, Rasmus "⁠SandeN⁠" Sanden, who played alongside BERRY on the team during ESWC 2015, where SK made the quarter-finals of the event.


rezex teams up with newcomers and old timers alike on 123team

An old teammate of BERRY's will also enter into the fore, namely Nikolaj "⁠holzt⁠" Holst, who played alongside BERRY on the No Problem! lineup.

In addition, 123team includes Christian "⁠rezex⁠" Bjerregaard, who made his name on the then-unknown CG team who achieved a shocking qualification bid for the PGL Regional Minor and came close to making the playoffs before ultimately disbanding in early February.

Finally, the team have decided to draw on new blood talent as they have poached Daniel "⁠mertz⁠" Mertz off the Optimum team who won the RGN European Open II over more well-known outfits.

rezex has provided HLTV.org with a statement on the team, saying:

"We are looking forward to starting playing with each other and showing the community what we as a team are capable of. We are a very new lineup together but a lot of things are already working out great within the team and there is currently a good agreement of how we want to play the game but also what we want to achive as a team, with our future plans."

The team's future plans include competing in various qualifiers for GO:CL and Rising Stars, taking part in the CS:GO Danmark League, and attending Copenhagen Games 2016 for which the team is seeking a sponsor (the team can be reached via rezex's email, [email protected]).

team123 currently possess a 10-2 record in ESEA Main, putting them at the top of the league above the likes of Preparation, Vexed, and gBots.

team123's lineup is:

Denmark Danny "⁠BERRY⁠" Krüger
Denmark Rasmus "⁠SandeN⁠" Sanden
Denmark Nikolaj "⁠holzt⁠" Holst
Denmark Christian "⁠rezex⁠" Bjerregaard
Denmark Daniel "⁠mertz⁠" Mertz

Haha, du må jo være et produkt af en fingerbølsdyb genpøl, for meget hjemmebrændt og et kondom brugt to gange efter at have fået vendt vrangen ud, til en fætter-kusine-fest. Du har end ikke en rudimentær forståelse af engelsk grammatik eller det engelske sprog, siden du i al din enfoldighed hårdnakket holder fast i så omfattende tåbeligheder, selvom det modsatte allerede er forklaret mere end én gang. Selvom dine skriverier er kilde til morskab for eventuelle læsere af denne tråd, så kan det også blive en tand for pinligt, selv for dig. Det er der, vi er nu.
