ex-Space Soldiers add imoRR

17-2-2019 21:01

ex-Space Soldiers revealed that they finalized their lineup with the young Turkish player Ömer "⁠imoRR⁠" Karataş.

imoRR had previously been representing ex-Royal Bandits alongside notable Turkish players Muhammed "⁠mini⁠" Salman and Ufuk "⁠SasuKe⁠" Göktaş, but has now been handed an opportunity with the most established team in the country, ex-Space Soldiers.

After ngiN's departure, ex-Space Soldiers added imoRR

The 19-year-old with limited competitive experience has been practicing with ex-Space Soldiers for a while, according to the team's coach Canpolat "⁠hardstyle⁠" Yıldıran, who also reiterated that Yaman "⁠yam⁠" Ergenekon will be sticking with the team.

"As all of our supporters are worried and questioning our continuation, I believe it is time to announce our new fresh blood and a 5th player with whom we are practicing since ngiN stepped down. I must say I am very surprised about the energy he has brought to the team so far and the firepower he awakened in the players. It is no one else but the young rising talent in this scene Ömer "imoRR" Karatas. We will be playing together in ESL Pro League and we are very excited to play together. Welcome to the team imoRR and thank you for accepting this challenge." - hardstyle via TwitLonger

In his TwitLonger (available in full here), hardstyle also mentioned that the team is still on a lookout for a new organization, but stressed that there is interest and that their focus right now is the upcoming ESL Pro League season.

ex-Space Soldiers are now:

Engin "⁠MAJ3R⁠" Küpeli
Ahmet "⁠paz⁠" Karahoca
Buğra "⁠Calyx⁠" Arkın
Yaman "⁠yam⁠" Ergenekon
Ömer "⁠imoRR⁠" Karataş

Canpolat "⁠hardstyle⁠" Yıldıran (Coach)

U just described xantares

2019-02-18 11:49

xantares kills more than he dies. he frags 0.87 per round. dies 0.70 times per round. imorr who in his career only played against non top 30 opponents has 0.72 frags per round but dies0.73 per round. he goes negative. thats a yikes from me.

2019-02-18 14:32

is he gay?just a question,don’t think that i’m homophobic

2019-02-18 09:50

No he's not unfortunately

horrible pickup. they should ve picked mini. or cut yam and get imorr as the second addition.

imor>ngin anyways

2019-02-18 02:16

his playstyle is is braindead playstyle so who knows.

2019-02-18 02:17

His playstyle is similar to xantares so good decision

2019-02-18 04:10

xantares isnt braindead tho. he plays risky and frag heavy. his positioning is usually fine. this dude just runs around.

2019-02-18 04:58

12 replies

He is quite promising imo. XANTARES also runs around in fpl. He will surely pay more attention to his positioning and plays in top tier matches

2019-02-18 06:02

which is why imorr is the best pick. not just gonna become a better team but also they will give much more experience to him so that he will be lot more better. its sad that u trashtalk and cry about imorr pick on every comment that says sth good for him,butthurt.

2019-02-21 12:55

idc are about imorr. he is better than ngin no doubt. my problem is THEY PICKED IMORR WHEN MINI WAS AVAILABLE AND PICKED YAM WHEN THEY HAD L0GICMAN to choose who is miles better than him and is a native turkish speaker. have you ever tried to communicate with a turk from a foreign country. its fucking cancer.

2019-02-18 14:34

7 replies

Cancer 🙄 has this logicman visa because it was 1 week prior to minor man when they got yam who did not need a visa

2019-02-18 21:43

im not debating the stand in stuff for the minor. im debating the signing the guy for full time part. also poland visa is pretty simple. you can get it like in 3 days if you are a student.

2019-02-18 22:51

5 replies

I dont think after following all visa issues that happened to Turkish players like ngin or woxic that it will be easy in 3 days or 1 week even which sucks. but they dont have an org yet so it is not really that they are signing him :D

2019-02-18 22:54

4 replies

getting visas are hard for turkish people because we are not a member of eu. but if you are a student its not that hard. woxic issue was the ukranian embassy actually lost his passport. i dont know what ngins issue was but ngin is a german national. so its a problem that could happen to anyone. it wasnt because he was turkish.

2019-02-18 23:02

Nope, Germans don't need UK visa. He is Turkish citizen thats why he needed visa for UK. But yam doesnt need he is Australian

2019-02-18 23:05

i dont know if he needs a uk visa or not as a german. i dont remember exactly what happened but it wasnt about a visa issue it was something about his passport. ngin is an ethnic turk but he was born in germany and lives in germany and definitely has a german passport.

2019-02-18 23:07

Ok then probably I misunderstood. But still I know it is not easy to get visa unfortunately in a very short time. It is always recommended to apply 1 month before travelling

2019-02-18 23:11

Very great pickup

2019-02-18 12:07

Dead team

2019-02-17 22:25

yes they should find an organisation and make us feel fresh again

Just a stupid question. How can they focus on upcoming season if your income is not covered. From what money they live now?

2019-02-18 08:43

he is good

wtf

EXpected

ok, this is epic

fpl star, really good fpl player

Will it translate to team play with these goons tho

He played with royal bandits against T5 teams maybe he can

2019-02-17 21:06

Royal bandits failed though. Insane aimers but lost a lot to teams they shouldn't.

ez for emre imorr

underrated comment

2019-02-17 21:22

I don't think, that it's a good transfer

they had 2 choice mini or imoR. I think mini is better but imoRR is talented af too

Mini > Me > Imor

2019-02-17 21:15

wrong. Mini> Me > imoRR > You

2019-02-17 21:16

wrong. Mini > Me > imoRR > Phoey > you

2019-02-18 02:18

The lining is true but I guess u used wrong symbol Mini < You < imoRR < Phoey < Me

2019-02-18 02:53

sorry bro my maths were always bad

2019-02-18 02:57

Lmao

2019-02-18 06:56

I mean that it takes a certain amount of time for players from online to start playing SS well and adequately play matches with tier-1 team.

imoRR has played some local LAN tournaments which didn't shown at HLTV. Of course, it is not as same as playing EPL LAN but I think he can handle it.

2019-02-17 21:18

We hope. In any case, good luck to him.

2019-02-17 21:21

Mean means average? How could you use that word which has clearly differences from others

2019-02-17 21:19

I do not know English perfectly. Please explain where I made a mistake.

2019-02-17 21:28

Check other meanings of mean out

Wew

Fpl god

who?

2019-02-17 23:09

he is random guy from turkey that qualifed for fpl couple of months ago

2019-02-18 02:19

ez tier 1

Thought they were kidnapped

2019-02-17 21:13

Hahaha OMEGALUL

Nice

+ for adding another Turk to promote scene - for still having yam, a guy that couldn't even make it in AU CS

Expected

who

im not Turkish, but i know about imooRR from fpl

EXPECTED

Finally a move from ex-ss

Now this team looks decent, can do some damage

actually good player

Not the best player from Royal Bandits, a player from Arena Bulls could have been picked as well (or GOD DESPE)

The only player on Arena Bulls has potential to play with ex-SS is Logicman and he is an AWPer. I mean they already have yam and it would be hard for them to go 2 AWP setup from no AWP setup in 2 months

or they could ve just cut yam as he is mediocre at best and got l0gicman instead as he used to play with calyx. imorr has mental problems as he has no game sense and shitty shaky kjaerye aim. they should ve picked up mini. rip epl spot.

2019-02-17 22:13

Logicman is good but I think yam can't be worse. We can't pretend not to see his experience. I agree that they would've added mini instead of imoRR. I feel really sad for mini, his career is so unlucky, he is the most unlucky guy in the scene I would say. First, DP had amazing potential but all ruined by the departure of Calyx then he started to play the MDL spot with Gux&Friends and woxic then he left that team because of the language barrier (His English can't be worse than ISSA). Just weeks after ISSA and woxic contracted by HR. Things couldn't work out in RB because they couldn't find a proper 5th player. He still would have been playing for a decent ex-DP, SS, HellRaisers, RoyalBandits or new ex-SS. None of them happened. I hope he don't give up and unite with other Turkish talents like russ, Logicman etc

2019-02-17 22:35

hisenglish is better than xantares now, watched some of his streams during a pug. he had better english comms than xantares. about yam. i watched a lot of renegades matches and let's just say he overperformed on the minor qualifier. there is a reason his rating was below 1.0 before he went back to australia.

2019-02-17 22:37

expected

btw, yam know turkish or wtf? :)

Yeah. He is Turkish

he is australian. he is an ethnic turk. not a turkish citizen as far as i am aware.

2019-02-17 22:26

His mom and father both Turkish bro. Watched his stream and asked something.

2019-02-17 22:30

turkish means turkish citizen though. i know he has turkish roots. if you are not a turkish national tho then you are not turkish. the term is turk. sonucta adam vergi vermiyo devlete aga akdghsdg.

2019-02-17 22:39

Loool

2019-02-17 22:41

Yam is Turkish.

2019-02-17 21:57

gl bois

hopefully a good team, ez top15

why not mini?

no one likes calyx

w u t

everybody hates calicks

2019-02-17 21:10

Calyx is Turkish Kioshima confirmed?

That pronouncation had me dying

Cuz calyx talked shit about mini on AMA so its not possible. Like woxic wont play with calyx

2019-02-17 21:08

oh i see

2019-02-17 21:07

I don't know but I guess imoRR is grinding a lot both FPL, Rank S and he is more ambitious than mini. On the other hand, we don't have any idea about mini and what he is doing with his career. Also, Calyx did an interview with a streamer and told that they don't have any communication with mini anymore and also he revealed that mini asked to Calyx for joining SS at the time when Calyx joined SS, which I assume supposed to be a secret so there might be a little beef started between Calyx and mini too. That is my guessing

2019-02-17 21:14

Yes very true indeed

2019-02-17 21:44

Literally, nobody likes Calyx xD only MAJ3R being his daddy

2019-02-17 21:49

Ahahaha nice joke

2019-02-17 22:18

mini is not active anymore he maybe even not playing anymore

He is playing for a spot on ESL Turkey Winter league rn xD

2019-02-17 22:32

Shit. I thought for one second that hardstyle would get a chance to prove himself playing.

Why would he play on ex-SS instead of FaZe?

2019-02-17 21:25

Good point.

Haahahahah

2019-02-17 22:07

OFCOURSE YOU WOULDNT GET A YOUNG TALENTED AWPER FUCKING GET YAM BRO HIS PRIME PASSED OFF DECADES AGO BUT THATS COOL THATS FINE

8 replies

Calm down man. Yam is the best player of this lineup lol

The guy named l0gicman is pretty good player and has good ratings. (AWPer) But they choosed yam , interesting i guess

2019-02-17 21:20

If i was logicman i wont leave arena bulls

2019-02-17 22:06

Yam has the experience tho. This team needs some experience. With too many young and inexperienced players, you can’t really achieve much. Talent doesn’t matter. Even imorr is a risk at this point, but it is a risk that had to be taken. Because team needs firepower and there are not much turkish players around that can provide that.

2019-02-17 21:54

+1 I was going to answer something similar and then saw that you explained the important experienced part. I really want them to come back to the scene and I believe with some young firepower and 2 experienced Maj3er and yam they can achieve. I will be cheering for them brothers

2019-02-17 21:59

Yes. Harmonizing talent and experience is always the best recipe for success.

but not the awp role man like common

2019-02-18 09:09

This team had been playing without an awp like for 2 years. That is why Yam becomes a solid upgrade.

2019-02-18 09:17

question is, can he make the impact xantares did? i don't think so. if he does, this lineup can potentially be best possible turkish one.

I don't think any Turkish player can do as more damage as XANTARES but imoRR can improve the team by teamplay more than XANTARES who knows. Old SS was completely setup on XANTARES so it was much easier for him to do damage

XANTARES is a player that you can build your game around. if calyx and paz don't step up their game, imoRR must be as good as XANTARES to make something. but as you said if they play better with the freedom comes from XANTARES's departure, this team has a potential to be a tier 2 team.

I mean XANTARES would not improve the team as game but only firepower. imoRR can also improve Calyx and paz so they can fill the firepower gap and also improve as a team. I got your point

2019-02-17 21:36

"I don't think any Turkish player can do as more damage as XANTARES " woxic has already done more than xanta last year OMEGALUL

I mean in ex-SS. Woxic can destroy any team if he has such a developed team like HR. Who knows maybe he would do it in SS but I don't think so

+1 I fully agree

They will probably change their playstyle since they have yam. Yam is a great player. Yam and imor combined will do better work than xantares and ngin used to do.

2019-02-17 21:34

let's hope this

2019-02-18 03:28

Couldn't find it now but back in the time when imoRR and DocC both were grinding on Rank S, docc accused him for being cheat because he was spamming the A main from squeaky a the cache. Also, his aim is shaky and kinda weird maybe this is why everybody thinks he is cheater idk

2019-02-18 08:30

They wont be contracted by any org?

coach said "soon"

Mmm it's good, they are really good players
