TSM sign sirah

14-9-2024 18:14

Altekz departs the starting five to make way for the teenage upcomer.

sirah spent the past year with MOUZ NXT, having begun his career in the Danish national scene

TSM have announced the signing of William "⁠sirah⁠" Kjærsgaard from MOUZ NXT, with the 17-year-old replacing Alexander "⁠Altekz⁠" Givskov on the starting roster.

sirah has already recorded an official with TSM as he stood in for Valdemar "⁠valde⁠" Bjørn Vangså in an Elisa Invitational Fall match against Sashi on Thursday, a series which TSM ultimately lost 0-2 (11-13 Inferno, 1-13 Nuke).

The young Dane is the latest in a long line of graduates from the MOUZ NXT project. Four of the current MOUZ lineup began their time with the organization on the NXT roster, whilst Christoffer "⁠Chr1zN⁠" Storgaard and Bram "⁠Nexius⁠" Campana are the most recent graduates to head for pastures new, having signed for OG over the past few months.

TSM returns to Counter-Strike with roster featuring JACKZ, valde, CYPHER

sirah joins a TSM who lacked for a successful formula for much of the time since the organization re-entered CS in the latter half of 2023. TSM have now fielded a total of 16 different coaches and players over the last 12 months.

The various rosters TSM sported languished well outside the top 50 of the world rankings up until they moved away from international lineups and constructed the current Danish constellation in July.

New TSM debuts with SkinClub Summer Cup win

Since adding Frederik "⁠acoR⁠" Gyldstrand, Altekz and Nikolaj "⁠niko⁠" Kristensen, TSM have been a far more threatening prospect, enjoying deeper runs in tier two online competition and winning several lesser online events like European Pro League 2nd Division and Skin.Club Summer Cup. This resulted in a rise to No. 39 in the world rankings, their peak since re-entering CS, and a successful qualifying campaign for the Perfect World Shanghai Major Europe RMR.

Altekz departs the team after just over two months and as the team's second-lowest-rated player after niko, averaging a 1.07 rating over 113 maps.

TSM are now:

Valdemar "⁠valde⁠" Bjørn Vangså
Rasmus "⁠Zyphon⁠" Nordfoss
Nikolaj "⁠niko⁠" Kristensen
Frederik "⁠acoR⁠" Gyldstrand
William "⁠sirah⁠" Kjærsgaard

Allan "⁠Rejin⁠" Petersen (coach)

Are you really that excited for TSM?

2024-09-14 18:39

Not really, I just hope they'll find moderate success so that TSM chants come back in full force

2024-09-14 18:43

can't believe this team is still a thing

2024-09-14 18:15

Who cars

you did. you took your time to read and post. jc

2024-09-14 18:20

damn was expecting egirl

name doesn’t check out

2024-09-14 18:19

Sad for altekz

2024-09-14 18:16

Upgrade for sure but still sad for Altekz, he was not a bad player.

What roles Altekz plays btw? I don't genuinely know I never paid attention when watching TSM

Good question but I am the same way as you are. I have not really paid attention to it.

2024-09-14 18:57

Altekz the only player on the team who has all the anchor roles, I don't understand why they didn't kick niko

2024-09-14 20:50

Wasnt he IGL for NXT? Or was it chrizn. Who is calling now, still Valde?

2024-09-14 18:17

It was chrizn

ah okay, thanks Seems like a pretty good signing, didnt watch many of his games but altekz was a pretty obvious player that could be replaced, still sad for him but he can bounce back, just needs more time I think

2024-09-14 18:21

Bubzjki's second coming?

2024-09-14 18:18

Ok irrelevant team

2024-09-14 18:24

wish it wasn’t altekz but sometimes you needa change

2024-09-14 18:35

why not niko tho? Can't claim I have watche a lot of TSM. But surely you would like more young blood in Altekz rather than niko or?

2024-09-14 18:37

Why -altekz tho

2024-09-14 18:40

Good luck to the kid. Keep an eye as I seem him in tier 1 if he keeps it up. Can't wait to see this new nxt roster in action too 👀👀

2024-09-14 18:45

Mouz NXT players getting poached one after another. Goated academy roster and scout especially, same for spirit but dont forget RuFire, bro scouted players like m0nesy, fame, perfecto, fl1t before they were known

Who scouted this KYOSUKE kid? Though? OverDrive?

sad for altekz but sirah is a very good and young player with potential. could be a good move

2024-09-14 18:52

pretty nuts pick tbh

2024-09-14 19:00

Why altekz he's your second best player

2024-09-14 19:02

damn sirah downgraded :c F

2024-09-14 19:05

TSMEME, NIKO PROBLEM

Valde come here... Until you start calling a better T-Side, none of these roster changes are gonna matter. Tbh, the next drop needs to be YOU.

2024-09-14 19:45

i could see hooxi joining tsm

2024-09-14 22:30

Why the fuck are Valde and niko still on this team, removed someone who is arguably NOT the problem. TSM need a fucking IGL.

2024-09-14 20:25

Who igl now?

2024-09-14 23:01

sirah deserves better

2024-09-15 02:00

I really hope Neityu gets an offer too Really contributed to Mouz NXT success the same say Sirah and PR did.

2024-09-15 13:17

Sucks that out of all orgs he went to that it was TSM but glad to see young guns get some opportunities. The Mouz NXT boys are great, need to see more get picked up.
