ASES bring in SOKER

ASES e-Sports Club have announced that they have picked up Aitor "SOKER" Fernández from 91ers.

The Spanish team were the surprise package at DreamHack Valencia last month, holding VeryGames to a 15-15 draw in the last group match despite the fact they were unable to reach the last-four stage.

ASES then won the Spanish qualifier for the EMS, but still decided that a player swap was needed in order to scale greater heights.

Fernández, who came from CS:Source like the rest of the 91ers team, will step into the shoes of Pol "ocalove" Sancho, who has been shown the exit door.

"After DreamHack Valencia, we saw that we had the quality to try to do something in Europe, but we were missing something," Xavi "Aguila[N]" Casals told Arenazero.net

"The departure of "ocalove" is solely based on individual performances. It is a tough decision because it was my idea and he is a friend, both inside and outside the game.

"With the arrival of "SOKER", we hope that he will bring that extra bit for us to be a stronger team and to consolidate ourselves in Europe."

ASES, who will play in the EMS Qualifying Round 2, now have:

Antonio "CristOfer" Macarro
Xavi "Aguila" Casals
Ruben "torpe" Gomez
Nicolas "GhosT" Milyayev
Aitor "SOKER" Fernández
