Xizt denies SK SEC spell

23-8-2010 21:06

Richard "Xizt" Landström has confirmed to HLTV.org he will not be playing for SK Gaming at Samsung European Championship.

The management of H2k Gaming, the organisation Landström is still contracted to, had confessed to HLTV.org that the player would be the subject of a fine after choosing to play for SK at SEC, this way breaching his contract.

However, Landström has now indicated he will not be at SEC with SK Gaming in order to attend the MSI Beat It finals, which will take place in Beijing, China, from 4-6 September, with his team, Lions.

He is still listed as an SK Gaming player on the official SEC page, so the Swedish team will now have to find a replacement for the former Begrip Gaming man. Jimmy "allen" Allen's spot in the team has been in doubt after missing their last matches because of his vacations.

Lions will attend the MSI Beat It finals with:

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

of course he does :D

so sad, but mby SpawN, Delpan or zet, steps in! will see!

why the hell SK dont see Delpan ??

2010-08-23 21:23

becouse sk is looking for a aimstar and not a awper since walle isnt leaving they dont need no apwer or els theres no reason for walle to stay he is not IGL and not the awper and he is not a crazy aimer

delpan is an one man army, good both with awp and awesome with rifles so you see he is an aimstar awper.

2010-08-23 21:51

walle doesnt even awp, no1 on sk is an 'awper'.. robban gets 1 occasionally on ct but never as t's. SK need someone who can get a frag, regardless of what gun its with. Delpan is a monster fragger with the awp, and despite what some people think his rifle's are amazing aswell.

RobbaN already is the IGL.. And i don't think allen will leave or be kicked. He's just on holidays why should that mean he will be kicked? :o Anyways, their testing players for the fifth spot that's all !

wtf??? im saying if walle and allen retired it would be for the better of the team. Why are u talkin jibberish not aimed at my post

2010-08-24 15:32

1 reply

cause u said "RobbaN IGL" like it was a new idea but I answered that he already was IGL. btw walle is doing a good job since he left his IGL job. allen is way too underestimated. I think all what SK needs is a bit of stability. When you look at the winning lineup of 2005, Snajdan, fisker and ahl were not the most skilled guys on earth but it clicked well between all 5 players so they won easily. That's what SK needs.

2010-08-24 19:41

Xizt, good chose!

2010-08-23 21:42

OH COME ON decide already, SK get your thoughts straight!

what? are u serious? im sure they have their thoughts together, its u, the press(eufemism for HLTV.ORG in this case) that are creating this whole circus around it, this non-sense rumours, dont blame SK for it..

in this article, earlier this evening: www.hltv.org/news/5074-sk-to-use-xizt-at-sec HLTV.org has received info that SK Gaming will use Richard "Xizt" Landström at the Samsung European Championship. [...] So far, there has been no comment from SK Gaming as to the line-up they will be using, but the official SEC page lists Landström as their fifth player. this proves that it's not the press, it's the tournament / organization of the tournament who apparently made a mistake. check out SK's team page on SEC website, and see for yourself. ec.wcg-europe.com/turnier/team/635/ You are right, quite often it's rumours (rakaka.se cough cough...) which are responsible for wrong info, not this time however.

they might have assumed that SK would use xizt for the finals just like they did in quals, but that doesnt mean SK already decided who's going to be allen's sub, assuming Allen wont make it, cause so far, SK havent released any info regarding it, so until that, its only rumours, and yet again not SK's fault imo..

Rakaka may be alot about rumours but they are right 90% of the time. So I dont see why you even point rakaka out??

no offence intended, as you said, rakaka.se is known for rumours. rumours are still rumours even if they turn out to be true most of the time :)

You made it sound like it's rakaka's fault everytime there's a rumour that isn't true, even tho they are rarely wrong.

In that case I am sorry, since it's not what I had in mind.

2010-08-24 13:08

why would you blame hltv.org for it? It was listed on SEC's OFFICIAL WEBSITE, which i believe these guys can take as a reliable source of information. So, they posted the news article here... Not like it was from an "anonymous source". So stop blaming them and get a clue.

how idiot are u? for fuck sake.. im not blaming no 1.. at SEC website its SK's qual team, everybody knows that xizt were only confirmed for SEC QUALS, not finals, so until SK confirm that xizt would play for them, every new regarding it ARE RUMOURS.. again im not blaming no 1, but the guy blamed SK, and tell what's SK fault here?

i do blame HLTV more than i blame SK, considering u were blaming SK for ABSOLUTELY NO reason... i dont blame them for assuming it, i blame them for putting out the new without confirmation..

If anyone actually deserves any blame, then it's the SEC for posting an invalid lineup. Still, SK could have told them to just add TBA instead of Xizt. HLTV.org deserves no blame whatsoever since we only reported the mistake of others.

Obviously I don't think he would take the 'aimstar' role he had time back but as a complementary player he still has what it takes.

He won't return imo, but he still got it that's for sure. It's just that someone has more important things in life.

2010-08-23 22:54

Not really, at least the last time I checked his score in gathers was like 1-7. But then again he always play with Samir who's like -1 player.

Why are you laughing because he said threat? Do you think he is such a great newbie? :/ Ok, he wouldn't be a good choice, but just cuz SK needs an aimstar in my opinion, THREAT is so nice as IGL and he have a stable aim, but ok SK don't need him for this line-up, that's the truth.

2010-08-23 22:12

+ manne

2010-08-23 22:14

Let's go Delpan. A player with his talent should not be wasted. If SK not picking up Delpan they can go and F theriself :D

2010-08-23 22:15

Xizt > sec:D

2010-08-23 22:16

xizt will regreat of this... hey allenVACATIONS?

2010-08-23 22:17

great, leave Lions alone plz. Replace Walle with Delpan and you are set for the right path SK!

2010-08-23 22:18

What the hell is going on? O_O

2010-08-23 22:23

SpawN as stand-in would be the most obvious choise. But maybe delpan, who knows.

2010-08-23 22:24

SK is so fucking dumb..USE FUCKING DELPAN!!!! Delpan >>>>>>>>>>>Xizt it's not even close imo, the only reason i can think of is that maybe walle and RobbaN don't like Delpan outside the game..it will be SK's biggest mistake if they actually cut allen and don't pickup Delpan in his stead

2010-08-23 22:48

1 reply

Why would SK cut Allen anyway when he's one of the more consistent players?

2010-08-23 22:53

SPAWN = OXIDE, delpan is better that spawn

2010-08-24 01:11

2010-08-24 01:25

Delpan would be the right man to bring in to the team.

2010-08-24 01:32

This is really starting to turn into a soap opera

2010-08-24 01:58

how do you know that players like RobbaN and allen will play well without walle if they kicked him and got Delpan ? maybe they have awesome chemistry who knows

2010-08-24 03:38

Everything related to H2k players seemss like a soap opera :D

2010-08-24 06:31

No clue if SK have good relations with Delpan , in case they do , he's the perfect choice. If not , Well it's hard to say... I would pick striker and try to make him serious and good again. Getting too many unexperienced players is quite bad for international events.

2010-08-24 06:34

delpan's time to SK ,imo come on,SK

2010-08-24 08:24

delpan will play instead of xizt! trust me! :))

2010-08-24 08:48

gogo add delpan pls !

2010-08-24 08:51

SK = noobs :/

2010-08-24 08:57

just castrate MODDII and use him damn, he is perfect fragger or even delpan, restructure the team, use delpan as first fragger, build the team around the awp strats, his awp is good

2010-08-24 09:23
