Orbit sign ex-Epiphany

9-3-2016 22:30

Orbit have picked up the ex-Epiphany Bolt team to represent the roster for 2016.

The Orbit organisation fielded several different teams at various points of 2015:a Swedish squad featuring Jacob "⁠pyth⁠" Mourujärvi and Alexander "⁠SKYTTEN⁠" Carlsson, a Dutch-Belgian team including Joey "⁠CRUC1AL⁠" Steusel, and a Hungarian team with the likes of Bence "⁠DeadFox⁠" Böröcz and Viktor "⁠flashie⁠" Tamás Bea featured on the roster.

Perhaps sensing that their investments in teams in the year had generally not come to fruition, the organisation went quiet and bided their time while looking for another CS:GO roster.


Four-fifths of the new Orbit lineup

Following the announcement three days ago that Epiphany Bolt had released their lineup, and that the core of the lineup had also parted ways with Emil "⁠hiffer⁠" Ervolder, the Danish-Swedish team were seen playing in a few online games with Briton Jake "⁠Boaster⁠" Howlett.

The Orbit organisation decided to make their move and officially sign the roster. The team are expected to have their offline debut as Orbit at Copenhagen Games 2016.

"We are very excited about representing Orbit, as we've always seen them as a professional organization. We appreciate this opportunity and look towards the future," Mads "⁠MomentPlz⁠" Sørensen said in a statement on the signing.

The new Orbit lineup is:

Denmark Patrick "⁠es3tag⁠" Hansen
Denmark Mads "⁠MomentPlz⁠" Sørensen
Sweden Simon "⁠st^⁠" Thulin
Sweden Fredrik "⁠Krewmer⁠" Svensson
United Kingdom Jake "⁠Boaster⁠" Howlett
