ex-mouz.uk quartet form new team

1-2-2013 01:35

Former mousesports.uk captain Sam "RattlesnK" Gawn has decided to put together a new team called overrated individuals.

Gawn led mouz to an impressive 3rd-4th place finish at DreamHack Winter in November, but the team ended up being released last month due to the organisation's wish to focus on the German market.

Since then, the team have been nowhere to be seen, and after Lasse "stingeR" Midtstue linked up with the former mTw team in Torqued, it was feared that the players had simply decided to go their separate ways.

However, Gawn has now created a team on the ESL's website called overrated individuals with a view to competing in the A-Series to get through to RaidCall EMS One.

Midtstue is not the only player from mouz.uk that will not follow the team in this new adventure, though, as Pete "pt" Wright is not part of the roster, either.

To replace these two players, Gawn approached former mouz team-mate Daniel "RE1EASE" Mullan and Brandon "weber" Weber, who had been without a team after quitting fm-eSports TOXiC on Wednesday.

All organisations who are interested in supporting this team can email them at [email protected] with the following subject line: "overrated individuals".

The UK-based team consist of the following players:

Sam "RattlesnK" Gawn
James "Mx" Smale
Preben "prb" Gammelsæter
Daniel "RE1EASE" Mullan
Brandon "weber" Weber

His aim was even better than ScreaM's in CS:S lol. He was a monster. Hope he can transfer that talent to CS:GO.

he already did, atleast in the beginning of CSGO. Haven't seen him playing for a while now...

2013-02-01 02:13

I wouldn't say that his aim was better than scream's. But release was for sure a better player than him, and had very smart moves and good clutch ability

2013-02-01 08:13

2013-02-01 01:49

in what basis u said re1ease>f0rest,Scream? since f0rest only played 1.6 and said to be one of the best player ever and even succeeding in cs:go too, so how do u compare a guy who have been playing source with a guy who havent played that game at all? besides neither he has proven anything is cs:go yet whereas f0rest has already shown his capability in cs:go too

In 3 matches they have taken NiP to 16-14 twice. It is not that stupid a comment..

2013-02-01 02:41

2 replies

There could be 2 cases. The first one is that they take a srs orga who can give them their requirements and they play lots so they will win everyone including NiP. The second one is that they don't get an org so they will stop playing soon and they will fold, as always. RE1EASE wasn't at university so he stopped playing because of that?

2013-02-01 03:14

and they had only ~10 days of practicing

I already saw but i don't use to read that shit forum. 1k-1k5 are just normal salaries imo. NiP is the only one who really is worthing lots of playing this game. As far as i know RattlesnK studied at uni so he probably won't spend many time in a game that won't worth even a 1k5 salary per month.

2013-02-02 02:09

very strong lineup, goodluck !

2013-02-01 08:54

Got a proper team to root for now, nice !! People keep talking like they could just beat Nip easily like Xizt, GTR, Forest, Fiff, Friberg are a bunch of nonamers. They are, mostly, star players who PRACTICE shitloads !! So it will take a lot of practice + patience from these guys to be on top, hopefully they'll stay together, insane line up on paper. GL !!

Who knows, but people from Denmark/Sweden/Norway generally have good English.

There were 2 norwegians but stingeR was left out or joined up with MODDII to play with ex-mTw

Yeah, would have loved to see him play in a big team (well, speaking of 1.6 times, now he's obviously already in a good team) but yeah, Scandinavian players are talented, but Sweden/Denmark has always been in front of Norway in teams, although skill wise they are the same, I would say, but Norwegians simply can't have good chemistry with eachother. kalle actually stated that in an interview, that he likes playing with Swedes more then Norwegians, because they are more "professional" :)

2013-02-01 11:51

wow... quite a team, just missing me.

2013-02-01 11:52

would be epic if fnatic picked them up or maybe even 4kings (still going?), dignitas (still going?) they need a solid organisation and they need to stick together. UK teams far too volatile - the UK community give teams so much grief for not winning and the pressure is intense. There's always stigma for UK teams as they usually underperform with the exception of a few occasions. Total respect for all the players though. Only possible lineup improvements would be keita (fm.toxic) or Friis (fnatic) Good luck lads! I'll watch yer games!

2013-02-01 20:58

This is a really good team, wow. A lot of potential. But I can't help smiling, when people instantly goes "better than nip", "top3 team for sure" etc. Truth is that there are a LOT of very good teams on the scene right now (and more on the way). I see so many teams in the subtop in Scandinavia with potential to making it big, and there are already a lot of great teams on the top. From where I'm standing it looks like it's gonna take a lot more than 'just' five good players to make it in GO. When the scene has stabilized it will be damn near impossible to form a new team or join a tour as mix team and surprise everyone with a top place, even though it should consist of five star players - though it's something we've seen happen before in both 1.6 and Source. If GO keeps growing and the tours keep coming, the scene will simply be too stronk.

Maybe something for 4 Kings?

yes, but this is csgo. And so was RattlesnK and RE1EASE.

In CS:S Rattlesnk & RE1EASE > Weber. Don't know about GO.

You cant compare rattlesnk to weber. And for release, I simply disagree

Then you haven't followed CS:S enough, obviously. RE1EASE > weber in CS:S any day, any time, based on both achivements and individual performance @ LAN. That's a fact.

That is not, lmao. Release was awesome back in 2010 but he didn't really do anything since then and was kinda overrated by the community because of the awesome movie actions he made (just like scream at the end of css). Weber was nominated to the mvp award at 30p, CPH games 2011, i44, i46 and won it at i43 by 53% over shox and rpk... You can say that in your opinion, release is a better player than weber, but you simply cannot say that release has played better than weber in the last 2years since he hasn't won a single mvp award and won only one event (and was average at it)

2013-02-04 21:07

Awesome lineup.I've allways liked uk gaming at cs.If this team is stronger than the mouz.uk ( who made 2 matches 16-14 with NiP ) i think we can see very interesting matches.I hope that someone will pick them up.GL!

Yeah he is pretty good with that awp. RE1EASE similar to ScreaM imo, in CSS anyway.
