DreamHack Regional Minor Championship Europe at DH Tours 2016

Friis ruled out of EU Minor

10-5-2016 20:00

SK Gaming talent Michael "Friis" Jørgensen has been ruled out of the upcoming European Minor Championship at DreamHack Tours due to a health problem, HLTV.org has learned.

The 27-year-old has recently undergone hip surgery and is unable to travel to Tours to compete in the tournament, which is due to start on Saturday.

Replacing him on SK's roster for the tournament will be Casper "⁠cadiaN⁠" Møller, who remains contracted to the German organisation despite stepping down from their starting roster at the start of the year. His most recent team, Preparation, recently disbanded following the departures of John "⁠wenton⁠" Eriksson and Nicolai "⁠glace⁠" Jensen to fnatic and Escape, respectively.

Friis unable to attend DH Tours following hip surgery

Usually, rosters are locked before a Minor, which means that the qualified teams cannot make any changes before the event, but SK have been granted an exception after providing the necessary medical records to confirm Michael "⁠Friis⁠" Jørgensen' surgery.

Eight European teams will be taking part in the European Minor, which will hand out $50,000 in addition to two invites to the ESL One Cologne qualifier.

This means that SK Gaming will attend DH Tours with:

Asger "⁠AcilioN⁠" Larsen
Emil "⁠Magisk⁠" Reif
Jacob "⁠Pimp⁠" Winneche
Andreas "⁠MODDII⁠" Fridh
Casper "⁠cadiaN⁠" Møller (stand-in)

She is better aim wise but no way better overall.

2016-05-11 08:22

aimwise? maybe only on AIM MAP. not on other maps. cuz on other maps POSITIONING is more important than raw aim.

2016-05-11 10:28

By 'aimwise' I meant raw aim. Of course crosshair placement and positioning is just as important, but when it comes down to actually aiming, she is better.

2016-05-11 11:45

Maybe but as you said not better overall, I've seen her play she has terrible game sense

+++ wanted to write this 1-st :(

2016-05-10 20:11

"but SK have been granted an exception" Why sk gets that option but no one else?

because Valve suck dick

or sk sucks valde dick

both will do

Yea, lets take thing out of context.

2016-05-10 20:16

Tbh it doesnt matter because SK aint gonna win :D

2016-05-10 20:18

after providing the necessary medical records to confirm Michael "Friis" Jørgensen' surgery. You could have finished your copied lines and then you would have had the answer.

#RipCadiaN

how can he play with the hip?

10 replies

dude its fucking hip surgery. He probably cant move at all for 1-2 weeks. Even if so, there is still pain which remains for 1-2 weeks ...

2016-05-10 20:22

1-2 weeks :D? a friend of mine had 4 month with no nothing, but ofc, i think you would be able to play computer, thoe

nevermind i wrote it badly. You can move after 1-2 weeks with some helpers (dont know how to write it in english thought). I got that surgery like 8 years ago so i know what a surgery is that and what it takes to recover your hip movement.

2016-05-10 20:52

They are called crutches: the things that you put under your armpits to help you walk around? Or maybe just a wheelchair would be better. Glad your surgery went well. :)

2016-05-10 21:02

Wheelchair will definitely fuck your legs up. Crutches is the way to go.

2016-05-10 21:10

I've never had any surgeries or major injuries to myself before, so I just assumed that with your body wiggling around, it would strain your hips, but now I can see sitting down at such an angle would also mess up your bone re-growth process.

2016-05-10 23:46

It will strain your arms way more. One thing is growing wrong, another is good blood circulation and keeping muscles intact. Imagine not using your legs for 4 months. I've had 40 minor surgeries and 5 major operations for my legs as well as 2 permanent damages.

2016-05-11 03:42

Ouch dude, I hope everything is still turning out for the best of course.

2016-05-12 03:38

Life is a bitch, touch the sweet spot and she'll fuck you up.

2016-05-12 16:18

Oh I know all too well.

2016-05-12 22:52

Cadian the guardian angel to save SK and make it great again
