Misery and Lacoste join CLG

posted by Jaywalker,
After much speculation, it is now officially announced by us Counter Logic Gaming that se Jonathan 'Loda' Berg and se Johan 'Smulgullig' Gidmark will be leaving the team, and replaced by dk Rasmus 'MiSeRy' Filipsen and hr Dominik 'Lacoste' Stipic.

se Jonathan 'Loda' Berg gave the following statement about his move:

Its been a hard couple of trips for me since my vacation. In the beginning it was very hard for me to swap from my role as captain to whatever role Pajkatt would chose for me. Practice worked out, I learned how to take on a more passive part of the team. I improved and returned to somewhat around my normal skill level. There were a lot of other things that needed to take a higher priority in my life. These issues made me focus my eyes on another part of the world.Its not an easy choice chosing to leave a team and a project that I once decided to create. I didn’t plan on many of these new priorities, but there are things that are just more important than gaming. So I had to weigh my spot on a top team in the world, a possible top 3 placement at TI2 vs. everything else.It was an extremely hard choice...But I have faith in my team. I believe that they can handle losing a player like me, and hopefully find someone who can fit just as well. Im rooting for you guys at TI2, and who knows, maybe I’ll meet you there :)Thanks for the time on the team.

The plans of Loda and Smulgullig remain unknown for now.

CLG team roster:

se Per Anders 'Pajkatt' Olsson Lille
dk Rasmus 'MiSeRy' Filipsen
hr Dominik 'Lacoste' Stipic
se Joakim 'Akke' Akterhall
se Jesper 'Mirakel' Nyhlén
