cArn temporary stand-in for fnatic

12-6-2012 15:27

Patrik "cArn" Sättermon will make a short-lived comeback at DreamHack Summer this weekend when acting as a stand-in for fnatic in the group stage of the Swedish Championship.

It has been a little over three months since Sättermon played his last match for fnatic, losing against Natus Vincere in the quarter-final at the IEM6 World Championship.

Since then he has been taking up the role as fnatic's Chief Gaming Officer, residing in Taipei, Taiwan.

At DreamHack Summer the Swedish Championship will take place and fnatic won't be able to utilize Finn "karrigan" Andersen for the group stage on Saturday. Andersen is due to take an exam and will therefore not be able to make it to Jönköping in time.

Sättermon will therefore be acting as a stand-in for Andersen in the group stage. Should fnatic advance to the playoffs, which take place Sunday, the team will once again use Andersen.

cArn to play three matches for fnatic at DreamHack Summer

Sättermon said the following about his temporary comeback on fnatic's website:

"The guys asked me if I´m willing to come back and help them during the group-stage of the Swedish championship as Finn has his final exams to take care of. Of course I can not reject such a request and I´m thrilled to get back competing a bit, though it´s worth to clarify I´m not intending to return full-time at this point. See you at Dreamhack all and thanks for all the support! Forza Fnatic!"

The group stage for the Swedish Championship will begin at 10:00 on Saturday and you will be able to watch Sättermon in action for three matches.

unfortunately not, both have dropped CS divisions a long time ago, because it's practically impossible to make more money from having a CS team than you spend on them in Holland ;( the netherlands only have 2 active teams left, mousecontrol (really active) and mojo amsterdam (semi active, pick up the mouse a few weeks before an event and start hardcore praccing). from the top players only chris is still really active it seems :(

2012-06-13 15:49

Gl carn!

2012-06-12 15:32

I'm not sure about this. carn didnt play for almost 3 months and xizt is the acting game leader how could they adjust hope they win the group stage.

2012-06-12 15:33

3 replies

That is good. Especially considering cArn hasn't played in 3 months, he will play a more agressive roll, allowing him to loosen, instead of focusing on strats. Or maybe cArn really is calling which I doubt, and Xizt is the one going bananas.

2012-06-12 15:53

Carn definitely doesn't fit the same role as Karrigan, but I suspect the benefit is they don't have to spend as much time getting him to fit in and up to speed as if they brought in someone who had never played with them before.

2012-06-12 16:28

Thats what im talking about and then they will adjust again after finn is back.

2012-06-12 16:33

it wouldnt have bad option to continue with Xizt as IGL and let carn be an entry fragger :D at least he could act as a bait or something

2 point's 1 carn like 6 player but not inactive just secondary (not like allen in sk mascote) but player who play's matche's if fnatic have sux oponent or no risk too dont leave group stage but not repleace karrigan , better gux but somtimes only ofc 2 - threat + carn ! :D? or mix with mane and pronax?

2012-06-12 16:50

they could have found a better stand in tbh

2012-06-12 17:03

i bet carn comes out and destroys all opponents and all the fgt haters in this thread start "carn my fav player" threads after the tourney. GL carn and fnatic, it will be fun to watch.

Replacing one player for a retired player who hasn't played in several months a week before one of the biggest events of the year? Not to mention that cArn is not a fragger, he's a strat caller, which could mess up Xizt's weekend... Dumb, dumb move...
