Blank adds Rwa

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:

Sweden Anders "Rwa" Svensson
Sweden Johan "face" Klasson
Sweden Niklas "niko" Johansson
Sweden Mattias "Snajdan" Andersen
Sweden 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.

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

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

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
