threat denies H2k statement

Björn "threat" Pers has declared to HLTV.org that his team will not represent H2k Gaming at the MSI BEAT IT Finals.

H2k had issued a statement earlier today explaining that the Swedish team would play under their name at the Chinese event despite reported interest from Lions in their services.

Pers has now stressed that he and his team-mates will be attending the MSI BEAT IT Finals in China from September 4-6, but not as H2k Gaming, without revealing the name of the new organisation.

"All I can state is that I will never play under the H2k tag again," Pers told HLTV.org.

Earlier this month, H2k had expressed their unhappiness with the team's choice to have Pers replace Markus "pronax" Wallsten, but the former fnatic member says the roots of his decision go way back.

"Never playing under H2k was a decision I made after I left them before I joined fnatic," he added.

Pers' team will attend the MSI BEAT IT Finals with:

Sweden Richard "Xizt" Landström
Sweden Niklas "niko" Johansson
Sweden Frej "kHRYSTAL" Sjöström
Sweden Emil "FYRR73" Karlsson
Sweden Björn "threat" Pers

The H2k Cs team left because H2k have no money to send them to events, H2k lost there main sponsor this month Zowiegear, Zowiegear payed 750 Euro so if you only receive 500 euro from Thermaltake and 250 euro from Spam Energy drink. So 750 euro you cant send a top team to a event,

srsly yes why not? when he has some realistic amounts to say. maybe he is a ex orga or something. to me it makes sense that the 1.6 squad leaves h2k when they cant send them to big events anymore. or do you have a better idea why they leave h2k a pretty known organization? to get no one. i would understand it when a bigger org would take over the squad. but thats not the case. they are free atm. for sure lions has now some interests. or do you have any better source? and i am also sure that you can trust a guy named zitron from the swedish team crystal gaming :-)

This was pretty expected. After the inappropriate statement from H2K, Threat can't be expected to play under H2K tag. Plus it seems his past experiences with the organization are not good.

It doesn't but in this case, pronax just left h2k for threat so there really is no way pronax will return in h2k and especially not since h2k players will leave the organisation too.

In 2 hours, H2k reply, saying this is all bs, and that threat is unprofessional. And then we will be going back and forth for days. The decision to bring threat was a disaster, in the first place, and now this is turning out to be some kind of a soap opera.

I don't even know why I'll be replying to you, If we didn't had any money, then why were our cs 1.6 team at all the events they wanted to be? Furthermore if you ask our COD4 or CSS team, they are very satisfied within H2k. Don't state things if you don't know anything about it. Ps: don't hide yourself behind nicks like these, your former nick was: sksux, that definately means you're someone who changes opinion every week to make yourself popular.

Erm, Im not sure on what you base that really. He played for h2k before, and obviously said to himself never to go back. From my point of view it has nothing to do with him being cocky after his time in fnatic. You obviosuly got all the details and really know what you're talking about. PS: Since you obviously know threat very well, you should know that he's one of the most humble players out there. Which makes your statement even more stupid really.

i just dont understand how people dont like threat..hes like top3 of in game leaders of sweden..and hes not such a bad shooter as you think, in fnatic there was no point for him to topfrag, but when his team needs him he is there always.. for exemple: youtube.com/watch?v=e4e2yMarq2I this is one of the most beautifull clutch rounds I remember to ever see, along with neo vs NoA or walle vs PGS etc..

as much as I know threat by myself I know he feels he is so good that he is really a pro. Want's too many salary and don't think to organisation so much. Makes the team qlimate too hot. sucker

I think they should try to find some beer sponsors or even MacDonalds.

The Swedes are really in a big pinch, both the players and the organizations. First it was Gux, and now threat. Joining fnatic seriously blows their brains out.
