Vexed sign former Platinium squad

5-12-2016 01:01

Vexed Gaming confirmed their return to Counter-Strike with the signing of the Platinium team that finished 3-4th at ESWC 2016.

The organization makes it's return to CS after releasing it's Polish roster nine months ago. The team featuring the likes of Karol "⁠rallen⁠" Rodowicz and Damian "⁠Furlan⁠" Kislowski has had moderate success, qualifying for two Majors in 2015.

Vexed has now decided to pick up the French squad that represented Platinium at ESWC 2016, where Ali "⁠hAdji⁠" Haïnouss and co. surprised with a top four finish.

Vexed signed the Platinium squad after a good showing at ESWC 2016

This is what Mark "Princess" Weller from Vexed Gaming had to say about the signing:

‘’We are very excited to announce our return to Counterstrike,

Today, we announce our new Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team, we have found a team that have both great potential and the motivation to make it back to the big stages. Our recent supportive partnership with We Got Game and a change in management has allowed us to acquire their previous roster and we cannot wait to see what we can achieve together”

"We are very excited to announce our return to Counter-Strike, Today, we announce our new Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team, we have found a team that have both great potential and the motivation to make it back to the big stages. Our recent supportive partnership with We Got Game and a change in management has allowed us to acquire their previous roster and we cannot wait to see what we can achieve together."

Victor "⁠Roombang⁠" Henkinet added his own thoughts on the move to Vexed:

"After last ESWC and thanks to our win streak there, we manage to enter the HLTV rankings at the 29th spot and I said during an interview that we were hoping to stick together given our humble success there. But we were lacking an organization able to bring us to the next stage. Signing today with Vexed Gaming is a huge opportunity for the team. Knowing their last team managed to qualify for two majors is a big motivation for us, and even though we’re a young team, we are eager to prove we have what it takes to do as good or even better. We know this will ask a lot of work and we hope we can live up to our own expectations. Thanks again to Vexed Gaming for their support."

Vexed is now:

François "⁠amanek⁠" Delaunay
David "⁠devoduvek⁠" Dobrosavljevic
Ali "⁠hAdji⁠" Haïnouss
Steve "⁠jarod⁠" Cohen
Victor "⁠Roombang⁠" Henkinet

Pierre "⁠NpK⁠" Henkinet (Coach)

The first chance to see the team in action will be at the ESL Championnat National grand finals held in Paris on the 11th of December.

GL To new vexed! ESWC 2017, here we come!

2016-12-05 01:18

Hm, I doubt they'll be able to qualify to a major like the previous Vexed team. But who knows, hard work pays off and there could be surprises.

2016-12-05 01:22

Yeah but then again no one tought the old ebettle/vexed would ever qualify for a major and they did it twice

2016-12-05 01:42

What a shitty org though. They'll get screwed over

2016-12-05 02:39

This is a great news because on VaKarm (french site) there were rumours saying that devoduvek, AmaNEk and jarod would join Maniac and Jackz (the BeGenius player who was/is (i guess if Millenium gets a new line up) a stand in for Millenium) on Millenium and that hAdji and roombang would be left on the side. Good to see them sign on a structure that had a team playing some Majors, after such an amazing performance at the ESWC.

Vexed where is money for ex-Vexed? XD

2016-12-05 15:51

I can't wait for the Major to start because you can say what you want teams like SK, VP, NiP, G2 and NaVi hide most tactics, they want to win the Major so bad because it's the biggest title like in club football with Champions League.
