ex-LGB eSports loses Dennis ‘dennis’ Edman, will forego ESEA June but still attend Dreamhack Summer
After having reached the semi-finals of the $250,000 IEM Katowice tournament, where they lost to eventual winners Virtus.Pro, a lot of expectations were sent the Swedish roster’s way and when they announced that they would no longer be playing under the LGB eSports-tag due to more established teams showing interest in them in early May, few expected that any of the five players would stray onto a separate path.
However, due to negotiations between an unnamed organisation being prolonged, dennis has now left the team in favor of a stable job unrelated to CS:GO. With this in mind, the team will be forfeiting their position at the upcoming ESEA LAN at the end of June, but are looking to attend Dreamhack Summer with the aid of Christian 'Spitfire' Schiölde.
Whether or not the ex-LGB crew that now goes under the handle #TEAMGLOBAL will continue playing with Spitfire following Dreamhack Summer is still undecided, as their manager Viktor ‘vuggo’ Jendeby told FragBite that “Currently, we’re not feeling that there’s an obvious replacement”, he isn’t ruling Spitfire out completely however, citing that “It’s really up to what the future holds”.
