Playing Ducks release team

Playing Ducks have announced that they have parted ways with their Lithuanian team with immediate effect.

The German organisation justify the decision with the loss of one of their sponsors, which left them without the means to continue to support a full-time team.

Playing Ducks have guaranteed that all outstanding expenses will be paid and thanked the team for their services to the organisation over the last nine months.

kalinka & co seek a new organisation

During this period, the Lithuanian team most notably won the InfoShow Lan Party, a domestic event, placed third at Legend Series #2 and competed in the European closed qualifiers for DreamHack Masters Malmö and the Binary Dragons Prestige LAN.

Playing Ducks added that they will soon unveil their new German Counter-Strike team, who will play under the organisation on a part-time basis.

The Lithuanian team, who will be competing in ESEA Season 26 MDL, have the following roster:

Lithuania Lukas "⁠lukjjE⁠" Baciliunas
Lithuania Nikolaj "⁠kalinka⁠" Rysakov
Lithuania Eimantas "⁠pounh⁠" Lazickas
Lithuania Robertas "⁠Carcass⁠" Mikuckis
Lithuania Tautvydas "⁠HyPe⁠" Paldavicius

Lithuania Zygimantas "Ynli" Sypalis (coach)

Shut up, things like these are bad for the CSGO scene overall. It's never a good sign when orgs have to drop teams because they lost sponsors.

You are writing that the team has not tried working on their tactics to play more team-reliable. - That is not true, but if you accept an offer to play full time for a Organization and you are pending on the Salaries and they don't arrive in time or completely not. - Then you can't dedicate time for practice since you need to make money somehow.

You should read the article before telling others to go research the topic. "Playing Ducks have guaranteed that all outstanding expenses have been paid" meaning your point is irrelevant.

Well, The Article is based on one side of the story. The Players will release their statement on the whole Incident tomorrow. Also, The statement that outstanding Salaries will be paid shouldnt even be a fact when the team is FULLTIME. - For the organization :) - Which again brings the part about not being able to develope when you have many other aspects to take into considerations.

but we don't know...before orgs and tournys have said they would settle it, but then did not pay. I agree with you everything sounds fair, but until they DO pay, and don't just say it, we won't know about their situation.
