NaToSaphiX's 'undefined' lineup goes public

20-2-2023 16:20

The squad has been playing together since the start of the year.

Niels Christian "⁠NaToSaphiX⁠" Sillassen has publicly announced the undefined roster on his Twitter account. The lineup has featured in several qualifiers already this year.

The roster has been in the works for some time, as Asger "⁠AcilioN⁠" Larsen released a statement in December last year saying that an organisation had been lined up for the team, but they pulled out last minute. NaToSaphiX also referenced the situation on Twitter.

NaToSaphiX announced the lineup officially via his Twitter account

The team decided to stick together, unsalaried, and since have been playing in multiple CCT qualifiers, the European Development Championship qualifiers, and the A1 Gaming League. They have taken series wins over some decent opposition, most notably ECSTATIC, but they have yet to qualify for more prestigious events.

The most well-known players on the lineup are the two Danes, AcilioN and NaToSaphiX. Both have been without a team for some time now, AcilioN since he left Apeks in August last year and NaToSaphiX since a short stint with Complexity in 2021.

Richard "⁠ritchiEE⁠" Mestdagh is a name that those who pay attention to the lower echelons of professional CS may be aware of, as he has been posting excellent statistics for some time now. He spent much of the last couple of years hard-carrying EC Brugge to some level of relevance in tier-two, and briefly featured alongside the likes of Robin "⁠flusha⁠" Rönnquist and Miikka "⁠suNny⁠" Kemppi on the failed GORILLAZ roster.

Grzegorz "⁠jedqr⁠" Jędras is currently listed as a stand-in for the squad, however in a tweet NaToSaphiX clarified that they hoped to continue with the Pole "for the foreseeable future," but were unable to announce him as a full-time player as he is still contracted to another organisation.

The undefined lineup is as follows:

Denmark Asger "⁠AcilioN⁠" Larsen
Iraq Bebu "⁠Bibu⁠" Aadil
Denmark Niels Christian "⁠NaToSaphiX⁠" Sillassen
Belgium Richard "⁠ritchiEE⁠" Mestdagh
Poland Grzegorz "⁠jedqr⁠" Jędras (stand-in)

Germany Kevin "⁠kRYSTAL⁠" Amend (coach)

I mean usually reporters don't shit-talk teams and/or players. What level has the guy who wrote this piece played? What credibility or relevance do they have, to write about other teams, their players and the passion and the choices of the players, in a way like that? This guy who wrote this trash wouldn't even have anything to write about without this team. king_dempz, not only are you completely irrelevant, your attitude sucks and is prob why you're writing about other teams instead of playing on one of your own.
