Epsilon reveal academy team

Epsilon eSports have announced that they will be forming an academy team, signing the former passions roster to play as Epsilon Hype.

Following in the footsteps of GODSENT and Fnatic, who picked up secondary teams in the recent months, Epsilon revealed the signing of the Swedish roster passions as an academy team.

passions are one of the more established academy teams though, as they have played in the ECS Development League and taken maps off teams such as GODSENT, Gambit and HEROIC.

This is what the coach of the team Felix "FELLPA" Hedlund said about the move in the official release:

We got really excited when Chrille approached us about Epsilon, since we know that they have a great reputation and are a well known organisation. It will be a great place for us to take it to the next level especially with the support of Hype Energy. Their drinks will keep us focused during practice!

We all are happy to be a part of Epsilon and would like to thank Hype, Epsilon and Chrille for giving us this opportunity

The roster that will compete under the Epsilon Hype banner is as follows:

Sweden Hampus "⁠hampus⁠" Poser
Sweden Alfred "⁠RuStY⁠" Karlsson
Sweden Kalle "⁠perzon⁠" Persson
Sweden Linus "⁠limp⁠" Brännlund
Sweden Patrik "⁠powerputte⁠" Perjons

i don't see what the problem is? so what if they wont be top 30 even? We who cares for the game should all be happy that orgs invest more in CSGO, whay ever it may be. Most importantly Its a perfect way for young talents to get seen

to get into more tournaments etc, it's not really about the players they probably don't have salaries and their organizations will get a cut from their prizes

Was just sort of saying its more just the signing of a 2nd team, Similar to LDLC Blue/White. Academy teams are meant to be 5 Newer players put in a team together to improve their skills and learn to play more team based.
