Blank adds Rwa

7-11-2008 14:51

While most eyes are pointed at the World Cyber Games, there has been a move on the Swedish Counter-Strike 1.6 marked – Blank adds Rwa, striker is out.

The Swedish team Blank has been struggling to mess with fnatic and SK Gaming for quite some time now, the team now hits a bump on the road, as the team swap one player. Blank almost qualified for the World Cyber Games in the Swedish National Qualifier, but lost after playing overtime for over an hour. The team have since then been playing both Extreme Masters and the qualifier for EPS Scandinavia. With ups and downs, the team now sees the replacement of one of the latest additions to the team.

Former SK Gaming member Emil "striker" Westerberg joined Blank alongside with Snajdan and since then been a key-player for the team. Striker is now pulling out, with no statement why. His replacement is found and it is former SPEEDLINK member Anders "Rwa" Svensson who will be filling the empty spot in Blank.

With strike out and Rwa in, Blank now consist of:

Anders "Rwa" Svensson
Johan "face" Klasson
Niklas "niko" Johansson
Mattias "Snajdan" Andersen
Rasmus "Gux" Ståhl

Blank is still in the run to qualify for EPS Scandinavia and still playing in the Main Round of Extreme Masters III.

Exactly! He joined SK from team EYE (with vilden, walle etc.). Maybe you heard about him from there.

OMG nice Rwa !

2008-11-07 15:35

well maybe the idea was to add awesome awp-r,cause tbh thats what their kinda missing atm and maybe striker had some rl issues or w.e

2008-11-07 15:39

no he didn't #23, he joined after sk broke up and spawn went back to nip..ahl retired, vilden, fisker, snajan, goodfella, and allen was the lineup after that...then more retirements, then striker was in, then striker was half-ass so he was out.. but striker is still good, we'll see if rwa is rusty

If you use the 'Reply' button the user will/would know you replied to him/her ;)

gl Rwa JAEGARN :(

gl guys

2008-11-07 16:15

good aimer but I don't think that he will cooperate well with rest of the team

2008-11-07 16:20

Latest matches by Blank were a bit low. Let us see if this change has a positive effect ::)

2008-11-07 16:28

you mean vs the mix hippo? yesterday? yeah hippo was strong with molander and co :-)

2008-11-07 16:39

Nah, not yesterday or whatever matches but a bit more time back. They lost a couple of matches against really lower teams playing previous matches very well. I even thought they should join ESL Germany together with the rest of "random results" teams in it ;P

2008-11-07 19:10

yeah they lost yesterday in the esl.sca eps too qualifier vs hippotamus(random mix but good names)

2008-11-07 19:14

i see only one prob here. two awp's =[ i think it will be better with out niko but niko is lating very well so let us se.. how it will workout =]

2008-11-07 16:49

i think it can work someone is primary and the other is the secondary awp player you can see it works in many teams like SK(walle and robban) and on train as ct its good to have 2awps

yea like roccat in dd2 alot of the times they play 3 awps its wierd but its ok. in some ways against some teams.ihink in this days 1 awp its the max! the game become more T then CT all the CT maps are broken!

2008-11-07 20:20

you're right same as with the T maps ct will be stronger and the other way :-)

2008-11-08 14:25

.... too many changes. gl

2008-11-07 16:56

RWA...gl

2008-11-07 16:57

Fuckin' nice!

2008-11-07 17:11

This dude can really play well, but he has seriously screwed up before! And I mean stepped in SHIT screwed up. From what I remember he's such a whiner to his team mates, and always tries to control tactics. And if he cant have it his way he leaves the team.. Thats basically what I remember of him, from when he was playing alot. Lets hope he has matured over the years! gL
