Apeks sign AcilioN

4-6-2021 18:37

The Dane will take over in-game leadership duties from Dennis "⁠dennis⁠" Edman.

Apeks have announced the signing of Asger "⁠AcilioN⁠" Larsen as their new in-game leader. Rasmus "⁠kreaz⁠" Johansson has been removed from the roster to make room for the 24-year-old and will be released from the organization when his contract comes to an end in late June.

The organization has explained that the move was made to "make the roles add up" and put every player in more comfortable positions. "We have chosen to sign AcilioN because he is an experienced captain and in-game leader," the team's coach, Pål "⁠Polly⁠" Kammen, has stated. "This means that dennis will get to focus on the things he does best, and the roles in the team will be much more natural."

AcilioN will take over the reins from dennis in Apeks

AcilioN joins the Nordic team just three weeks after he was benched in Copenhagen Flames, where he played for six months in his second stint with the organization before the Danish side underwent an overhaul with the signing of MAD Lions duo Fredrik "⁠roeJ⁠" Jørgensen and Rasmus "⁠HooXi⁠" Nielsen.

The Dane's debut with the new team, who are currently ranked 63rd in the world according to HLTV.org's team ranking, is expected to take place in Spring Sweet Spring 3 Regionals, which is set to run from June 7-18.

Apeks now have the following squad:

Sander "⁠Grus⁠" Iversen
Dennis "⁠dennis⁠" Edman
Fredrik "⁠FREDDyFROG⁠" Gustafsson
Joakim "⁠Relaxa⁠" Gustafsson
Asger "⁠AcilioN⁠" Larsen

Pål "⁠Polly⁠" Kammen (coach)

Rasmus "⁠kreaz⁠" Johansson (to be released in late June)

LETS GO maybe apeks can finally be good

2021-06-04 18:38

neat

lmao why

What language would they even speak?

5 replies

swedish

Not sure now, they spoke swedish before 100% sure, but danish is much diffrent from swedish and norwegian

2021-06-04 19:16

Danish is so close it's like getting used to some odd dialect or accent. Nothing they can't get past rather quickly.

2021-06-04 19:54

meh doubt it. I mean i understand norwegian or would rather quickly depending on the person, but swedish is gibberish to me and most other danes lol

2021-06-05 02:08

Scandinavian is very similar

2021-06-04 19:17

damn i killed kreaz in dm once, probably why he is removed

cling to fame* (an English professor would have been needed to crack that code..)

2021-06-04 19:56

i think an english professor would have also realised my comment was a joke...

2021-06-04 20:00

A unenthusiastic laugh was a close second choice. I'll try that if you prefer.

2021-06-04 20:14

the phrase is "claim to fame" professor.

2021-06-04 23:29

Yeah yeah, cling is when you try to hold on to it. Professor.

2021-06-04 23:51

ha ha.

2021-06-04 20:13

what happened to kreaz?

Just need a Finn and you have a Scandinavian party.

Too bad Finland isn't a part of Scandinavia.

2021-06-04 18:50

He meant nordic. Alot of people dont know the difference and I cant blame them. We se Finland as honorary scandinavians anyways.

2021-06-04 19:12

Fair enough.

2021-06-04 19:30

5 nordic countrys, fin swe nor isl dan (shetland, orkney, farö, Åland) so make a pro team whit one per country?

2021-06-04 21:31

Hmmm, that's unexpected. I thought apeks were aiming for full Norwegian roster.

While they were 4Swedes? :)

2021-06-04 18:44

>Norwegian cs >Good team

2021-06-04 18:51

it’s possible to have both. you’d just need a lot of money and patience.

2021-06-04 21:16

They were trying to, but after they lost jkaem they realized it would be impossible within the next couple of years

2021-06-05 01:37

Hmm good pick up but overall the teams looks weak and are they even able to speak "nordic" now or must they use english? Had such High hopes for apeks, with a bit of luck and shit, could they have gotten really strong players and a noice team.

Yea did not expect a dane joining, no more svorsk - but he might know basic swedish

2021-06-04 18:53

most Danes understand basic Swedish and Norwegian, while both of u have no clue what we’re saying((

nah a lot of norwegians understand danes, but swedes are struggling bigtime

2021-06-04 21:38

most danes most defo don't understand swedish lol. I have swedish friends and we usually end up speaking english with everyone

2021-06-05 02:12

lul

kreaz just cant find a stable home

2021-06-04 18:47

thank god bot kreaz is gone.

2021-06-04 18:52

Good signing

Not bad. But...will they speak English or what? xD

2021-06-04 18:54

The org is Norwegian, so they speak Norwegian.

2021-06-04 19:08

lol 0/8

2021-06-04 19:10

No, frick your rating.

2021-06-04 19:13

dont swear on me

2021-06-04 19:37

Scandinavian languages are pretty similar. Like dennis stood-in for Astralis for example. Or RUBINO played for North (also a Danish team). Lekr0 also played for North Maikelele in Norwegian LGB, device in NiP, etc

2021-06-04 21:54

device is kinda excluded since he has been living in sweden for a long time. They are kinda similar, but it's still gonna be a tough time i think, unless acillion has lived north of denmark

2021-06-05 02:13

kreaz to fnatic confirmed?

2021-06-04 18:55

Highly unlikely.

same names over and over again

2021-06-04 19:02

No fucking way, he is so shit.. Switching to English for this bot, unbelievable..

One of the biggest CS frauds :) Like Peacemaker

gl gl

2021-06-04 19:15

Apeks really think that they won't ruin the whole team by benching Kreaz for this mf????????????

how does this guy get signed by a new team every 2 months

2021-06-04 19:23

No good they dropped kreaz

2021-06-04 19:33

good move acillion getting that norsk paycheck

shit move, cant believe people are still employing acilion, shit player and shit igl. apeks is becoming a meme org

2021-06-04 20:03

ahhaahahhahahahaahhaah

2021-06-04 20:04

Why is this guy still "relevant"

He's setting a record for most teams in least time, how long will this one last

2021-06-04 20:12

Oh wow, acilioN, what a famous name

he doesnt deserve norsk lønn

wthell why sign Botcilion the biggest fixr kek

2021-06-04 20:28

Why would they keep Grus?

2021-06-04 20:30

I just have no idea why anyone would pick up ⁠AcilioN at this point. He never stays in teams long term, and has never had stellar results over 7 years. It's mind blowing.

2021-06-04 20:34

He used to be #1 on the EU ESEA pug leaderboards back when they handed out big cash prizes lol, but that's totally different from him being able to actually compete in Tier 1 / Tier 2.

2021-06-04 21:29

I stand corrected, he's a pug tactical genius.

2021-06-04 22:53

Haha, I think it was just the money that made AcilioN grind ESEA pugs.

2021-06-05 03:19

hltv.org/player/8151/acilion#tab-teamsBo.. He changes teams more often than I change underwear

gay apeks kekw

They still have 2 or 3 weak fraggers...

2021-06-04 21:28

Well that's great for them I guess, dennis doesn't really seems like a solid IGL, and it's good to have a guy like AcilioN join the team. Sad to see kreaz go, but he was really inconistent lately.

2021-06-04 21:42

why not kick grus instead? Kreaz is decent and young and and has potential

2021-06-04 21:49

Kreaz has beev very bad for Apeks and Grus is younger, better and norwegian. They kicked the right guy

2021-06-05 13:38

wtf they’re both 23 I thought kreaz was like 16 or smth

2021-06-05 16:49

-jw -golden +kreaz +nawwk xD

2021-06-04 22:03

Acilion POG GL

2021-06-04 22:29

Kreaz to NIP

Who in his right mind would want to get that dog of acilion in his team? He has never accomplished anything, how can you get such a bot when gods like msl are free agents?

2021-06-05 03:20

This is an org that has no fucking idea what it's doing

2021-06-05 03:25

2021-06-05 09:18

The runour has it incest brothers might be one of those banned for matchfixing. Whether this turns out to be true or not still cant point it out why would one wanna sign these mediocre players being around for so long and still not being able to prove themselves as somewhat decent.
