HellRaisers try out loWel *

28-3-2019 18:45

HellRaisers are currently trying out Movistar Riders player Christian "⁠loWel⁠" Garcia Antoran, HLTV.org has learned.

The 22-year-old has been seen practicing online with the European team, who are currently in the market for a new fifth player after selling Özgür "⁠woxic⁠" Eker to MOUZ, and benching Bence "⁠DeadFox⁠" Böröcz.

HellRaisers turned to loWel after initially fielding Vega Squadron's Igor "⁠crush⁠" Shevchenko, who played for the team in the European closed qualifier for DreamHack Masters Dallas, averaging a 0.82 rating.

loWel and lmbt could be set for a reunion

loWel has been with Movistar Riders since the team's creation, in July 2018. He has attended just two international events with the squad, the most recent of which was the WESG Finals, where the Spaniards were sent packing in the group stage after trading maps with fnatic and losing to eventual champions Windigo.

In HellRaisers, loWel reunites with former mousesports teammate Tomáš "⁠oskar⁠" Šťastný and with his ex-coach in that team, Sergey "⁠lmbt⁠" Bezhanov. During the Spanish player's 10-month stint in mouz, the team most notably placed top four at the ESL Pro League Season 4 Finals and top eight at ELEAGUE Season 2.

HellRaisers are currently practicing with the following roster:

Kyrylo "⁠ANGE1⁠" Karasiow
Abay "⁠HObbit⁠" Khassenov
Issa "⁠ISSAA⁠" Murad
Tomáš "⁠oskar⁠" Šťastný
Christian "⁠loWel⁠" Garcia Antoran (trial)

Bence "⁠DeadFox⁠" Böröcz (backup)

Sergey "⁠lmbt⁠" Bezhanov (coach)

UPDATE: On Twitter and VK.com, HellRaisers coach lmbt confirmed that the team are currently trialing the Spanish player. Both posts have since been deleted.

Mashallah

I’m not saying its a good thing lol I’m just saying I have a feeling about that because bodyys gf lives in Spain and he’s been learning Spanish. That’s why I just feel he might test it out.

2019-03-29 18:44

He’s not that bad when you put him in better roles man....

2019-04-05 17:14

Zywoo > Mixwell (even i love mixwell btw)

2019-04-06 08:11

Zywoo is pretty bad because he is inconsistent and is a type of s1mple

2019-04-06 20:48

Joke

Unexpected

oof

omg, he will lowtab like deadfox

2019-03-28 18:46

Rip Mixwell

2019-03-29 14:18

2019-03-29 14:45

Rip MR

2019-03-29 00:24

fake news

unexpected

XDXD

rip mixwell [F]

smells like mouz

WAIT LOL WHAT

UNEXPECTED

WTFFFFFFFF

Thats a legit inter lineup if it works

2019-03-28 18:47

the fuck xd good for mixwell tho

what a clusterfuck haha

what srly lowel

lowel is a bot lmaaaaao

is he good? am i supposed to be excited? haha

No he isn't, you can be ready to be disappointed

2019-03-28 18:48

he literally rekt sprout alone

2019-03-28 18:55

it's Sprout

2019-03-28 19:36

Still bad

2019-03-28 20:01

he was pretty good on mouz and gbots, he played well at big lans. his last team was pretty bad and underperformed a bit, but i think he's an upgrade over deadfox for the support position.

2019-03-28 19:05

He is bad, no clue why they trial him

2019-03-28 21:04

because they have lans to play and have no other/better option atm ? Maybe they'll get AdreN in a few weeks if he gets released by FaZe ?

2019-03-28 23:03

AdreN would boost them

2019-03-29 07:31

For sure .

2019-03-30 03:23

easily better then deadfox

Riders it's a long term project, but maybe is frustrating for lowel and Mixwell being in a team who doesn't play any Major event (or at least have some chances to join) At least soon. They win "easily" on Spanish Scene, but when they have played vs teams with decent level always choked... Mix fuck his career parting away from OpTiC/G2 for this project Sorry but #Facts and we can see it after a year of his decision

2019-03-29 22:05

I get your point but I think they were doing pretty good. Being invited to huella tournaments and doing a good MDL season.

2019-03-29 22:07

I always thought that the continuity of RDRS would depend on the results of 2019 and the year starts badly AF

2019-03-29 22:10

Why do you think the year has started bad af? I see it as they are progressing

2019-03-29 22:16

If lowel parts away with the team and RDRS continues his project, they're gonna loose several weeks of tryouts instead of practising, but at least it's only one member not two... meisoN can be a nice replacement (or try to get a young promise)

2019-03-29 23:29

Naow if Lowel leaves

2019-03-29 23:42

Donq would be better as he is support like lowel, meison is igl and mixwell and alex can do it, you dont need and igl Now that nawwk left x6 i would go for plopski

2019-03-30 03:34

dat is cool

I saw a guy said this on hltv LULLL

me too lol

It was me :) it got deleted After 20 hours :D

2019-03-29 12:03

LuL

Why lowel again? He was shit in mouz, doesn't deserve a 2nd chance imo

Soooo far

2019-03-28 18:50

so far what

2019-03-28 19:14

Bro check his stats, he was the best player after Niko in mouz. Its true that when Niko left he played a little bit worse than he used to, but so far to be shit.

2019-03-28 19:15

2019-03-29 02:26

youtube.com/watch?v=eVFd46qABi0 Really? Out of all the players.

+chrisJ +denis +Spiidi

-oskar +niko

2019-03-28 19:12

Not bad Movistar was dead team and lowel was showing promise but there was better options imo

lmao they r in semifinals of mdl yeah maybe t2 team, but far away of being a dead team.

2019-03-28 22:05

Riders not T2 maybe Tier 3 not at the same level as teams on tier 2

2019-03-28 22:16

they r close to top 30 and theyve won some t2 and t1 teams and in top 4 of mdl which could be the best t2 league, maybe w a few more time theyll be in top 30

2019-03-28 23:06

Yes, but actually not a strong T2. Maybe with time.

2019-03-31 14:24

rip mixwell again

Expected

okei

2019-03-28 18:49

?XD

Why not mixwell?

Mixwell Is a igl, AND he Is the Center of MR

2019-03-29 02:27

Wise pick if it works out. lowel was a decent support in mouz back when niko was there, and a good support is what they need. I hope he can catch the old form.

FeelsBad :(

rip movistar? :/ If mixwell leaves rip

you can cheer for hellraisers tho ♥ I cheer for them because of oskar and lowel but all of them are nice guys

2019-03-28 18:51

unexpected lol

Shouldve picked cromen

Cromen formed a new team with some Scandinavian leftovers

2019-03-28 19:33

now... -hobbit +mixwell will be good

lowel is good

MIXWELL IS RIGHT THERE. Why lowel?

Why would they pick 2 awps? they already have oskar, why mixwell

2019-03-28 20:04

dont bother with people who dont understand how roles work

2019-03-28 22:25

Because he can hybrid and having a double awp presence is getting to a point where its almost necessary. The AUG has kind of blunted that need but even then I much rather trust mixwell with an AUG than lowel and on maps like train that can benefit from double awp, he can fill that role as well. Overall, mixwell is just a better choice.

2019-03-29 01:09

He is not even going to stay so i am quiet

Iberian CS? Lol!

oskar and lowel please make this happen

LUL Snakewel

nah He did well

2019-03-28 18:52

Snakewell original snake

nt snakeslaw

2019-03-28 19:08

wtf mixwel dont left the team

2019-03-28 18:56

LOWEL only one L > Snakewel, Mixwell 2 LL you understand? :D

2019-03-28 18:57

i just joking Kappa

b8ed

2019-03-29 00:27

He wasn´t half bad back in mouz... At this point anyone is better that deadfox

Unexpected lmfao

>botfox but ,well nothing to say

2019-03-28 18:53

wasted place in the team

WTF lowel movistar riders were doing ok

2019-03-28 18:54

u say that, but they were not dominating almost any of the games they won... always had to be a comeback. it was really exciting to watch and they have gotten incredible rounds, i'll give u that... but that is not what i mean when i say a team is "doin' ok". in some ways MR a lil' bit like MIBR, incredible performances and incredible chokes, 50/50

2019-03-29 00:32

No way...

not like this

2019-03-28 19:04

literally mixwell threw away his best career form just to raise Spanish cs he didnt give up but this cunt ruined everything mixwell hoped for xD

i dont know anything, but basically seems like

2019-03-28 19:03

it is offical he will be leaving the MR for this trial obviously but thats just sad,the star player of the team put everything aside and played for his nation but others didnt even had patience and left after a while

This is utterly depressing. WE HAD IT MAN. WE ALMOST HAD IT T_T

2019-03-28 19:45

ahahaha i feel ya bra maybe next time ence couldnt land at their first soo

2019-03-28 19:57

true, what a douche lowel is ffs

2019-03-30 11:40

it isn't confirmed tho if this happens rip spanish superteam i guess its good, this way they can develop their careers even more i hope mixwell and alex find a good new team

if this team goes to shit, spanish scene is not going to have a better chance ever. But I will be happy because i think Mixwell Lowel and Alex will find a good team

2019-03-28 19:00

YES i totally agree the three of them are eu team material for real would love to see them develop their careers and come back to spain when more talent has came out

Alex couldn't fit in a international team not even in 1000 years. He is way too spanish for that

2019-03-28 19:46

Maybe his english isnt top level, but with some pasha london school and headshots to opponents he can play in a decent eu team

2019-03-28 19:47

Nukkye please

XDDDXDDDDXDDDDXDDDD

2019-03-28 18:58

2019-03-28 18:59

rip movistar? :(

yes fucc :'(

Oh fuck rip Spain then. Could he not stay in this team ?

NO PLEASE hahahaaha, u are not knowing what are u saying, i prefer to see mixwell playing in top25team that in that shit mix

2019-03-28 19:02

rather mixwell :D :/

Never see them at major

old mouz

2019-03-28 19:09

gl mixwell also i hope alex doesn't lose his time in Spain and try going international. Anyways big dissapointment.

2019-03-28 19:10

Alex really is a beast! Does he have good english?

2019-03-28 19:21

I don't really know, probalby enough to play in an international team without being the one that makes the calls.

2019-03-28 19:53

Absolutely. He was born in UK. He can speak English and French.

2019-03-29 05:32

HHAHAHAA GOD #1

2019-03-29 23:38

lol unexpected. seems like riders will not improve then. Anyway, let s wait if it is true

Are you serious?

2019-03-28 19:18

snakeowel

lowel awper or rifler?

2019-03-28 19:23

awper? wtf hahahaha he is rifler support

2019-03-28 19:30

mixwell?

Mixwell is AWPing at the moment while lowel is Support

2019-03-28 22:22

lol kick botfox and add botwel.......... gg

2019-03-28 19:25

-lowel +fox we good

no pls xD

why not dude.....the best possible player...

2019-03-28 19:31

Maybe good enough for movistar riders

2019-03-28 19:32

........ 2 awps in same team... nop

i hate when some higher tier team steals one player from new uprising team with potential, that team goes to shit after losing their key player and new team kicks taken player after couple of months because of language barrier etc same story again and again

2019-03-28 19:26

so true

Language barrier? Lowel already played in mousesports and this is hellraisers were talking about.

uprising team? movistar riders have been around for a while and they lose to tier 4 consistently

2019-03-28 19:34

But they think theyre good LUL

2019-03-28 21:26

True

2019-03-29 23:54

HR lmao

FeelsBadMan for Movistar Riders but this is a good move, loWel is actually very good support, stats don't tell the truth on this guys' impact

not mixwell?

Such a sad day for the spanish scene. I guess lowel got tired of carrying MR most of their matches. Our dreams are gone. The war...is lost. Please press F to pay respects. F

2019-03-28 19:55

2019-03-29 23:52

unluko for spanish

2019-03-28 19:40

wat rip hr, rip msr

2019-03-28 19:39

Deadfox > lowel

2019-03-28 20:46

Why not mixwell?!?

2019-03-28 19:43

same question

2019-03-28 20:22

He is AWP actually and lowel is a Support that it's what HR is looking for

2019-03-28 22:29

Mixwell > Lowel as a rifler

2019-03-29 17:16

wow he just snaked mixwell just like that?

2019-03-28 19:44

Spanish cs omegalul

Maybe -oskar +mixwell. Mixwell would have been better he can rifle and play the secondary awp to oskar

wtf mixwell is not even close to oskar's level lmao

2019-03-29 19:19

lowel is nuts

Guess it's time for mixwell to move again

They need a support and he's one so it makes sense I guess. Plus, he's quite experienced.

2019-03-28 19:49

Good luck

nice

Rip the spanish dream, gl in ur future lowel <3

Angel hobbit is a oskar lul

cool

2019-03-28 19:56

Bence on the bench LUL

2019-03-28 20:03

well rip mr its been nice

I feel like there are better options, but considering hes replacing deadfox hes most likely still upgade. I just feel like nukkye or someone who has more potential to be (much?) better is better choice. If he suits role (support?) and plays decent, its fine. If not.... HR acutally might be quite decent, but it seems like oskar doesnt care (way too) much. Well see in near future.

2019-03-28 20:11

EZ FOR loWel

2019-03-28 20:17

Good, Maybe that will mean Mixwell will join a good international team

No. Stop. Men >:(

2019-03-28 20:19

I wanted them to stay together but now I just hope mixwell leaves too. Maybe C9?

why not mixwell?

2019-03-28 20:23

+1 lowel is overrated

2019-03-28 20:30

no, he is underrated

2019-03-28 20:31

Lowel surely tired of Mopos. It's really bad Mopos. Playing with Mopos is like wearing lead shoes and trying to swim practically impossible to win an important team.

2019-03-28 20:39

LMBT = great coach and very oldschool and experienced CS 1.6 player.

2019-03-28 20:52

I can understand why they benched Deadfox, but I think this isn’t a big upgrade for them...

2019-03-28 20:56

Flags..

2019-03-28 21:10

Thats the different. I am realistic, but you can see only the spanish flag...

FAKE NEWS THE COACH HAS DELETED THE POST ON VK

2019-03-28 21:59

I dont think so. LMBT probably talked too much and someone made him delete it.

2019-03-28 22:01

wow

I see many angry Spanish hahaha, rip team tier 4

2019-03-28 22:21

Angry? Most of us are full of joy xD What are u talking about lol

2019-03-28 22:46

2019-03-28 22:58

of the new should calm down that team was bad like all teams in Spain xd Mixwell should go to play a top European team, it is the only one that has good conditions in that country

2019-03-28 23:05

Nice London. Well, MR isnt a bad team but they arent reaching their goals, so thats when you have an offer from a team that plays TIER 1 tournaments u wont hesitate joining them. But anyways, here Mr. Argentina will call teams "bad" when his scene is based on invites and playing vs shity SA teams.

2019-03-28 23:09
