ptr leaves NRG

27-7-2017 23:00

Peter "ptr" Gurney has stepped down from NRG Esports' active roster, the player has announced on Social Media.

The 27-year-old, who has been part of NRG since January 2016, has not disclosed the reason behind this move, simply writing that he has "decided to part ways with the team".

ptr has left NRG after representing the team's colours for almost two years

Even after the signing of Allan "⁠AnJ⁠" Jensen, NRG have been struggling for form, with the team placing 7th-8th at the DreamHack Open stops in both Valencia and Atlanta.

With Peter "⁠ptr⁠" Gurney's future remaining uncertain and NRG's fifth player yet to be revealed, here is how the North American roster currently looks:

Damian "⁠daps⁠" Steele
Jacob "⁠FugLy⁠" Medina
Vincent "⁠Brehze⁠" Cayonte
Allan "⁠AnJ⁠" Jensen

After two great years with @NRGgg I've decided to part ways with the team. I wish them all the best.

Nonono, this is the next stage of Whindanski's career 100%

2017-07-28 15:30

they won't play with him

Have they specifically said so or do you just not think he's good enough? I personally don't think he's good enough. MLG XGames was his peak.

2017-07-27 23:25

PTR shit talked dazed saying he is glad he was banned before, soo.....

2017-07-28 07:20

Shit I hope not bcs if he joins ... This team wont have any succes

2017-07-27 23:12

Make sense. Would like to watch Brax, ptr, dazed +2

2017-07-28 18:13

I hope ptr gets the best possible Team. Literally the only NA Player i like

2017-07-28 11:17

Good for NRG

If we can't free anj and daps from NRG prison, we will make NRG prison their home

2017-07-28 00:32

daps deserves to be there, he can't hit the broad side of a barn

2017-07-28 01:25

I lol'ed! :D

2017-07-28 08:37

His aim is equal to a level 6 on faceit... that may even be too generous

2017-07-28 10:41

Daps is the 3rd best not banned igl in NA...

2017-07-28 18:31

Sad but mostly true. It's a shame his individual skill had never been up to par

2017-07-28 21:24

good, he sucked anyways

he needs to retire

pretty much and go to coaching or a different game

2017-07-28 19:38

Finally :>

goodnight

EZ AWPer for DaZeD's team

2017-07-27 23:03

2017-07-27 23:04

Would rather Fxy0

2017-07-28 00:10

Ooh you're right forgot about those guys

2017-07-28 00:25

DaZeD is a better awper than ptr.

2017-07-28 02:13

No lol.

2017-07-28 11:48

nrg full of bots

OpTic 100% Mark my words

Agree. So mixwell can rifle

2017-07-28 01:04

+1, he is good friends with tarik too

2017-07-28 05:39

-PTR +FRIBERG

Little late I broke the news an hour ago.

why when some one get kicked he say "i decided to part way"

Because he decided to? Nrg was and is a shitteam. Ptr just has too much faoth in them. If he finds a team with a igl on gob b level he can def. Be a good awper

2017-07-27 23:08

I think of it as the difference between quitting and getting fired. It's mostly a connotation thing imo

2017-07-27 23:27

One of the skilled players, who won't achieve anything with team

Ptr to optic

+Pimp :O

I remember how sick game he had vs NV on inferno in major at 2015. After that become shit. Maybe time to retire

And that round against nV/LDLC @ MLG XGames on d2 that was sexy

2017-07-27 23:32

lol bro, i was thinking about that game and round, dont know why i write inferno and major xD Shame on me. Was opening game for both teams Clg take down NV 16-14.

2017-07-28 00:18

oh boy oh boy.. The money i made on that match via csgl if i remember correct CLG had 4% chance.. the odds were crazzzzzyyyy :DDD

2017-07-28 02:17

He shouldve left nrg long time ago

good choice

if coL were smart they would -dephh and +ptr

2017-07-27 23:14

Ptr is without a doubt one of the best, if not the best, NA player ever. Sad to see him go. I hope he embraces his inner Brazilian and joins SK some day.

^Made me laugh more than it should have.

2017-07-28 07:48

two great years? maybe of friendship but nothing more.

It's a shame that he was either really fucking good, or really fucking shit. More often than not, it was the latter. Might get along better depending on what team picks him up (IF a team picks him up).

2017-07-27 23:16

Too bad Rogue signed CeRq before PTR announced free agency, he is the best North American awper on the market at the moment. I feel like he could do well with some young guns and GODHiko xD

2017-07-28 10:43

Lul, R.I.P. NRG, PTR is NA's "bestest" player.

he will join optic cuz mixwell left ez

rip RNG

didn't even remember this whole team existing for quite some time

2017-07-27 23:24

friberg to nrg

He has the worst in game iq I've ever seen

2017-07-27 23:29

Some of his decision making and positioning is literally atrocious it hurts to watch

2017-07-27 23:43

finally he's a beast and deserve a better team now #savebrehze too

Dazed Brax PTR ? ?

2017-07-27 23:45

DaZeD Swag AZK Fxy0 ? It's basically confirmed them 4

2017-07-28 01:38

Did AZK confirmed he will play CS:GO? Because he is currently overwatch pro, so I'm not sure he is going to switch and start all over again in cs.

2017-07-28 11:45

I dont think he has confirmed it himself but dazed and swag has basically confirmed that he is coming back to play with them.

2017-07-28 13:56

We will see.

2017-07-28 17:18

Ptr to Optic

pre to rogue

2017-07-28 00:04

sad :( ptr <3

2017-07-28 00:12

ptr to dazed team BlessRNG

2017-07-28 00:16

rouge

he thinks he can join ex-ibp now LUL.

2017-07-28 00:24

what i have seen from him, he is really bad. So there is a good chance they be stronger after adding a new player

2017-07-28 00:54

Finally this guy terrible on lan

2017-07-28 00:56

Rogue PTR 100%

2017-07-28 01:40

F I N A L L L L Y

2017-07-28 01:44

Petes the kind of player that's AMAZING online but he never, ever SHOWS UP on LAN. The only surprising thing here is how did even stay for that long with his abysmal LAN track record. Disastrous.

2017-07-28 02:27

if the ex ibp bois need an awper I could see ptr linking w them... hopefully they just take a chance on wardell tho

2017-07-28 02:41

Do you guys have any idea of whwo NRG will pick for their roster? mmmm

wait... what? WTF? We smart, we loyal, we friendly, we are from BRAZIL! Kreygasm

2017-07-28 04:27

Stop spamming I will report you

2017-07-28 16:00

So long the weakest link....

2017-07-28 06:36

good bye

2017-07-28 07:11

ptr underated.

2017-07-28 09:42

nice try to get picked up by Dazed lol

2017-07-28 11:26

ptr to another tier 8000 NA team calling it now

2017-07-28 12:18

100 % optic

2017-07-28 12:31

who cares about this BOT

2017-07-28 13:20

he is an excellent awp, may he goes to a better team

2017-07-28 18:45

ptr seems to have been struggling over the past couple years, I don't know how he became so irreverent so quickly. Remember when CLG cut jdm for ptr, he was like #2 or 3 in NA
