GameOnline! Update

Posted by cobbeh at 12:20 16/12/2003.

A few weeks back it was announced that both DiGitaL and Hyb had left top swedish outfit, GameOnline. Whilst most people were expecting the long lasting team to announce the ending of their era, they were quick to announce that they'd be finding replacements.This is exactly what they've done. The announcement that swedish players, graes and skipper, have been added to the roster was made yesterday.

This leaves the GoL lineup looking like this:

[ sydow(cl) | Souledge | erks | graes | skipper ]

The current team captain, sydow, has also been interviewed briefly:

What were the reasons for taking graes and skipper into the team?
Sydow: The main reason for taking them in was to create a local team and be able to play from the cafe. Another important reason was that we have fun playing together and have the same goals.

Why those two players? Did you know them from playing together earlier?
Sydow: Yes, we have played a lot with skipper and graes and erks has played with them together in begrip.gbg before.

The next event the team will attend will be the Cyber X Games in Las Vegas. How would you estimate the chances at this event?
Sydow: Well we aim for a top 3 rank of course. We will have daily practice session down at the cafe to improve our teamplay before the event.

The very best of luck to GoL in the future.

i think they are aiming to get a good 'team' together with the ability to LAN alot together as they are close to each other and progress that way, i doubt they can beat any of the best teams but its always nice to see a clan carrying on [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Swedish scene has so much depth =/

You wonder if the rest of the World will ever catch up with them as a CS Nation. No? Just me then.

makes me laugh how often this happens.

X and X leave team Blah, they are replaced by Y and Y.

The community immediately jumps up with "wtf r they?" etc etc.

what happened to teamplay > individual skill? [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Think GoL are just living in the past. Just because the old GoL did really well at the CPL's attended, it doesn't meant they can :-) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Maybe you never heard of them cause you live in the UK?
And you only heard of players that has been at cpl?

Anyway Skipper was ranked 7th best allround player in sweden so he should be good. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
