allu's project moves under JANO banner; adds ottob & sLowi

3-8-2022 19:45

The team will debut under the new organization at Assembly Summer 2022 on Thursday.

Aleksi "⁠allu⁠" Jalli and Slaava "⁠Twista⁠" Räsänen's temp lineup have joined forces with JANO, a rebrand and complete refresh of Finnish esports organization AHJO that is taking aim at competing among the best in the region.

allu and Twista return with new lineup

Former HAVU member Olli "⁠sLowi⁠" Pitkänen and 17-year-old Otto "⁠ottob⁠" Virtanen have been recruited to round out the project, which is led in-game by former SJ captain Tony "⁠arvid⁠" Niemelä, who has already been playing alongside allu and Lasse "⁠ZOREE⁠" Uronen on temp.

JANO will debut at Assembly Summer

"Getting a professional organization around the team is a huge deal," allu said in a press release. "Playing under JANO gives us a firm foundation and support network, which both are necessary for optimal team development."

The roster is set to make its debut under the new banner at Assembly Summer 2022 in Helsinki, Finland, where they will face a number of their countrymen from KOVA, HAVU, and ENCE Academy.

"For us, there hasn't been an offline event for a longer period," Twista explained when asked about attending the LAN. "It's a big deal to get back into the tournament environment with our team and compete against the Finns from other teams. It helps us to understand what is the current state of our team.

"We want to see similar performances from the players as seen in practices. If we can reach that level at the Assembly Summer 2022, we are satisfied."

JANO will compete with the following lineup:

Aleksi "⁠allu⁠" Jalli
Lasse "⁠ZOREE⁠" Uronen
Tony "⁠arvid⁠" Niemelä
Olli "⁠sLowi⁠" Pitkänen
Otto "⁠ottob⁠" Virtanen

Slaava "⁠Twista⁠" Räsänen (coach)

Nice move for top100

OTTOB GOD

GODALLU

i thought its the popular otto and that they have 3 awpers

well ottob awps too but probably not in this team xd

2022-08-03 20:32

and sLowi was second awper often too, so it's like 4 awpers

2022-08-04 04:14

Well there's two HAVU players in the mix and they became pretty known for playing a 5-awp setup in Mirage CT.

2022-08-04 08:30

who else read ottob as ottond

where sergay?

2022-08-03 19:50

he has beef with allu

2022-08-04 22:44

beef about what?

2022-08-05 09:56

Seems like finnish cs trying to ressurect which is nice. GL to every finnish team who can finish at least one season together.

2022-08-03 19:51

a whole season? we dont like that here...

2022-08-03 20:34

we go igame style 24/7

I just hope Allu has fun playing with friends.

He owns 6,5% of ence so mb he doesn't want to sell that, and therefore stays in lower tiers. It's so unlikely that he would win anything anyways.

2022-08-04 08:52

esea advanced quality, if they surpass that well allu deserves credit

You got 2-3 new Finnish lineups lately yet none feature the young prodigy from Top 20 list of players in 2019 .

8 replies

it's his own fault

I miss him .

2022-08-03 20:39

I miss him too but its kinda his own fault that he isn't in these teams but I keep my hope up that aleksib is gonna new line up in ence with sergej after this international team breaks up

2022-08-03 22:42

i would love to see Aleksi and Sergej back in the same roster again

2022-08-03 23:08

not gonna lie I expected HAVU to get Aleksi,sergej & zehn :D

2022-08-03 23:47

Aleksi would be a stretch really but Sergej really was a viable option . I wonder why isnt he part of the team.

2022-08-03 23:48

because he doesnt want to play pro cs anymore. He'll probably end up making a comeback in a year or two when his money starts running out and he realizes he has nothing to fall back on other than playing CS professionally. He's young enough where he doesn't completely fuck himself over by taking a year or two hiatus, but he will end up never reaching his full potential as a player as a consequence.

2022-08-04 02:01

That sadly is how it's all going to pan out and it hurts to see it that way . Could have achieved alot more in his career.

2022-08-04 10:46

Took half a year to announce the org LMAOOOOO same as joke "titans" took 1,5 year to announce the org for dead roster

They did not have an org before

2022-08-03 19:58

2022-08-03 19:55

Slowi used to secondary awp aswell

2022-08-03 20:41

thats irrelevant

2022-08-03 20:43

and ottob also KEKW

i didnt know he is awp too

2022-08-03 20:45

I don't think he is but quite many thinks. ottob = ottond

2022-08-03 22:44

2022-08-03 22:05

Not going to even be the best Finnish team.

Another paycheckstealing gig. Should've just joined JW, Flusha and company.

2022-08-03 20:01

idk about the paychecks tho since that org might be founded by them (?) not sure tho

easy to talk like that when you have a good scene bringing up talent :D, but JW and Flusha aren't stealing paychecks on eyeballers, they're trying to bring up some young swedish talents which is respectable (also I think they bought back the name to use for their org so they might've just built it from the ground up, not sure)

2022-08-03 23:13

lets go jano!

2022-08-03 20:19

jano = thirst

God Allu Good luck

So Slowi used to IGL in HAVU, Zoree used to AWP in HAVU, now neither Slowi is IGLing nor Zoree is AWPing lmao. This team has 2 awpers and 2 igls. Dare I say clownfiesta?

3 igls (or players with igl exp if you like): arvid, allu and slowi, but only arvid is dedicated zoree not awping is weird indeed

actually no and yes, slowi at was insane, insane entry, hes gonna play entry in this team like he played earlier, he was never "igl" he just took the role. zoree has always been good with rifle and here he can second awp but yes, some youngster for zoree could been the move.

2022-08-03 20:28

-zoree +jemi lets goooo

2022-08-03 22:06

Zoree has been a rifler before and Slowi was insane rifler in HAVU before taking the igl role which didn't work out

2022-08-04 22:59

Grabbed all the leftovers finish cs is saved

Damn I'm thirsty...gl for the boys!
