a2g splits into two

27-9-2011 02:02

The Swedish team that introduced an almost entirely new roster just ten days ago has once again gone through changes after some discouraging results, this time effectively splitting the team into two.

a2g was formed a couple of months ago following Manne "manne" Nordqvist's departure from his short stint in fnatic. They attended ASUS Summer 2011 in Kiev under the a2g organization, but failed to impress as they dropped out in the first group stage. They then went through a major roster rehaul, as they recruited Markus "pronax" Wallsten, Dennis "dennis" Edman and André "keiz" Carlsson.

In those last ten days they participated in the ESWC online qualifier, placing 9-12th after losses against Nordqvist's former team fnatic and Moscow Five. On the past weekend they also participated in the Swedish Championship pre-qualifier which they managed to win over embrace in the grand finals, qualifying for the Swedish Championship qualifier to be held on October 8-9 at Stockholm E-Sport Arena.

Contaced on the matter, Jon "hyvlarn" Edelsvärd had the following to say:

"Less than a week ago, I decided after many if's and but's to recruit pronax, dennis and keiz. It proved to be a brutal mistake, as those players seem to not be able to handle defeat. Everything isn't perfect and puzzled up in a new team. In order to make results a team must practice and give it time, which they did not agree with; time wasn't an option even though pronax promised it. One might ask why I brought them on from the very beginning when our previous duttdutt-teams have not maintained steady lineups. To answer that question, me and manne basically got a huge knife in our backs. We will review the situation in the near future and then we will provide more information later on."

a2g is left with:

Jon "hyvlarn" Edelsvärd
Manne "manne" Nordqvist

With the Swedish Championship qualifier looming under two weeks away, HLTV.org is not sure whether the spot a2g won stays with the a2g organization or if the majority of players get to keep it, in which case where Jonathan "lidde" Lidgren (who stood in for Carlsson in the pre-qualifier) ends up could determine the fate of the spot.

In either case, at least one of these teams will be forced to complete their roster soon if they wish to attend the event.

ah shit, i had 3 weeks in the pool

2011-09-27 02:07

i wonder where they'll be going now, since no teams are open =\

Think either teams maybe should have a talk to ESC Moddii & Barbarr. I know its a bit new lineup in ESC and ironically Pronax just left them - but they cant be happy in ESC aswell with recent results

2011-09-27 07:47

+1 Moddii, barbarr, pronax, dennis kiez or moddii, barbarr,manne,wazorn,hylarn

2011-09-27 11:45

2011-09-28 12:37

i was joking bro :p,

2011-09-28 14:22

What a sad story, i sweden no more top players are available...

2011-09-27 02:15

true :) :(

2011-09-27 12:46

LOL who would want to pick up any of those 3 players in top swedish cs scene expect maybe pronax

2011-09-27 02:17

ESC might ironically. Things havent been going their way lately

brutal mistake lol your face godammit

2011-09-27 02:19

bad :/

-.-' omg

2011-09-27 02:20

keiz/denis @ESC over zecer if recent rumors about suranga joining mTw are true.

Not really sad. Good for Hyvlarn and Manne, as they wont need to play with complete idiots anymore. GL to you two :)

2011-09-27 02:23

couldn't agree more

2011-09-27 02:31

Why you think that they are complete idiots?

2011-09-27 13:12

Rage Gamers

2011-09-27 02:25

Looks like hyvlarn is really dissappointed and would like to smash their heads. Bad for dennis, pronax and keiz, cuz there is no more competitive teams in sweden for them imo. And it's weird for me, that pronax, that little worm ( :D ) started to think that he is some big star obviously, first he gave some statement that he's leaving esc gaming because of some shitty reasons and now messing with hyvlarn... not cool bro.

2011-09-27 02:29

haha dunno why but i lauged pretty hard at your comment

2011-09-27 02:30

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH, totally agree, but loled so hard at "that little worm" HAHAHAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

2011-09-27 13:19

get talented young players. place 2 in sweden should be able to get.

2011-09-27 02:33

thats gonna belong to Lions for a long time haha.

2011-09-27 09:44

Lions has proved nothing on LAN lately, second place obviously belongs to fnatic and I bet even ESC (though arguably not Swedish anymore) is better than them on LAN.

2011-09-27 11:11

Actual not, Lions will be good on LAN.

2011-09-27 15:15

lol what are pronax, dennis and keiz?

they are already old in the scene they have been playing mixes with hyvlarn since over 2years

2011-09-27 14:03

This is so stupid. What a waste... I hope to see olofm in one of the two parts!

2011-09-27 02:36

moddii,manne,barbarr,zneel and qp/pronax should be good team

2011-09-27 02:40

pronax!! qp sucks!

2011-09-27 05:48

2011-09-27 13:23

oyeah, really great. data.fuskbugg.se/skalman02/65d05f70_lidd.. he dropped after that round btw, he didn't want to get 0-15.

2011-09-28 12:54

cheaters no one beat pronax and lidde))

2011-09-28 13:03

haha no i stopped playing cs about 4-5 years ago i just watch now :) it's just my opinion that what he did is immature.. and i'm sure 99% of people around the world would agree, now after school and education get back to me and we can have a proper conversation about life and love xo

2011-09-27 16:36

2011-09-27 05:35

"Everything isn't perfect and puzzled up in a new team. In order to make results a team must practice and give it time" Key sentence.

2011-09-27 06:00

a back stab is > 100 HP so I guess manne and hvylarn are dead :(

2011-09-27 06:08

brutal cs ..

2011-09-27 06:23

lidde huggan and wenton

2011-09-27 07:22

According to Dennis, they will not play with Swedes. Their team also seems to already be ready with an organization. Based on Dennis comments from the Swedish site fragbite.se.

2011-09-27 07:44

-wazorn -zecer +manne +hyvlarn ?

2011-09-27 07:57

Damn it but it's a good idea..

2011-09-27 08:41

daddy likey :D could work out since hyv and manne are motivated and so

2011-09-27 10:41

hyvlarn<3

2011-09-27 08:01

pronax keiz dennis BARBAR MODDI But its imposible. a2g: +qp +zyppe +wenton?

2011-09-27 08:42

hyvlarn deserve to get good teammates for real.. :/

2011-09-27 08:44

when they will play match against the other team, ill cheer for hyvlarn and manne. gl guys

2011-09-27 09:00

Just like I thought. They got scared that the accumulation of offline talent in one team might blow up the Internet so they quit.

2011-09-27 09:10

See if RAGE still trusts pronax..

2011-09-27 09:18

wow, exactly like the amoeba. perhaps they are related who knows?

2011-09-27 09:32

What did exactly did pronax expect when he left a upcoming top team to form a team with bunch of onliners? Looking at a2g lineup one could easily predict that this lineup would fail on lan but it also failed online. The only player among these 3 a2g players who is good enough to be on ESC is pronax. But will they trust him again ? Because his mood-swings are unpredictable.

2011-09-27 09:34

What? They have the skill, they just didn't have any teamwork. It takes time to work stuff like that out just as Hylvarn said. You don't form a new team and start winning stuff immediately.

2011-09-27 15:00

FUCKING JOKE

2011-09-27 09:49

they should now give up with cs

now fnatic : - xzit + manne - gux + hyvlarn

2011-09-27 10:25

-xizt + manne? stupid fanboy

2011-09-27 10:28

2011-09-27 10:34

2011-09-27 10:35

lol. If they think that brand new team will win all tournaments after a week, they are really stupid.

2011-09-27 10:42

pronax sux anyway

2011-09-27 10:55

hmmm they should get ChrisJ and headc H@H@

2011-09-27 11:01

They should be bringing in more oldschool players :3 vilden, snajdan and fisker :PPPpppPppp

Manneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

2011-09-27 11:18

"Everything isn't perfect and puzzled up in a new team. In order to make results a team must practice and give it time, which they did not agree with; time wasn't an option even though pronax promised it." typical swedish players to give up after a week. really feeling for hyvlarn and manne on this one. he's right, it doesn't take a week or even a month to become a good team, it takes a lot more time and effort than that, but that's what most people dont realize. things will go bad in the beginning - probably even worse than they're used to - but if they'd just stuck it out and kept practicing they would've came out on the other side of it; being a really good team unit that could wreak havoc on topteams, cuz that's the kind of potential these guys have.

2011-09-27 11:24

whatever, go hyvlarn

2011-09-27 11:35

yep it's sad that they gave up so shortly. i think they would be able to win fnatic and challenge other topteams after few weeks of pracc but as Nasdaq said "Typical swedish players to gve up after a week"

2011-09-27 11:36

typical finnish players dont even try :P

2011-09-27 12:04

typical finnish players lose 2v5 bomb planted upper default, one in each vent, one rafters, one main entrance and one yellow hut situations :P but I still love watching them play <3

2011-09-27 12:58

Typical finnish players to give up after 5-1 :D

2011-09-27 16:39

yep they play imbagather

2011-09-27 16:41

i never liked them anyway ;/

2011-09-27 16:53

Damn that's sad. I felt that they could do SOME damage if the motivation was there.

2011-09-27 17:05

True is that hyvlarn and manne got both terrible personality and other people dont get along with them. There isnt cure for that

2011-09-27 17:14

wtf are you talking about

2011-09-27 19:18

All teams that they have gone, they have either been kicked out (and reason is reported: because of personal problems with other member) or team have broken up

2011-09-27 20:07

here the problem is along the pracctice and seriousness ;)

2011-09-27 20:13

hahaha :DDDD

2011-09-27 17:53

wenton was playing nice, I do not understand why they dumped him.

2011-09-27 18:07

2011-09-28 18:50

For hyvlarn and manne , fury zet and florenz/dalito/strike/snajdan would be nice . This probably sounds like a utopia but +spawn , +heaton , +fury/walle ?
