b4d leaves Alternate
By: Nix0n
Time: 2010-08-06 00:11

Bastian "b4d" Gaffron has broken bonds with Alternate, supposedly due to being benched as sixth member.

Alternate in late June signed Kenyon "KenaN" Temmel, coming from a stunning season in TBH. This made Alternate house sixth members and ahead of ESWC 2010, the team decided to bench Bastian "b4d" Gaffron.

Reports indicate that the plans were to let Gaffron stay in the team as a backup player, but apparently Gaffron did not like the decision. On the Alternate ESL profile, Gaffron is listed as kicked, but what HLTV.org has learned, Gaffron left on his own.

Alternate consist of the following:

Jan "mooN" Stolle
Manuel "approx" Zeitz
Roman "Roman R." Reinhardt
Direnc "seraph" Öz
Kenyon "KenaN" Temmel

Gaffron will in the upcoming season be playing in the German ESL Amateur Series, representing team COREPLAY. The team doesn't really list any known players and could very well turn out to be a temporary stay for Gaffron, should he mid-season receive any offers for teams participating in ESL Pro Series.

2010-08-06 00:12:22
b4d go to mouz
2010-08-06 00:12:56
holy shit no !!
2010-08-06 00:13:39
NO! cyx deserves a better replacement!
2010-08-06 01:18:34
Please don't say stupid things... It's very sad what happened to Cyx, he was a very great player, but you have to move on (By that i don't mean forget about him).
b4d is a great player and i don't think he can replace Cyx but he definitly deserves the chance.

2010-08-06 03:18:45
hell no, blizzard is 10x mroe deserving of that chance, if he is willing to put in the hours.
look at his performance @ gamegune, despite not having pracced nearly as much as the others
2010-08-06 11:43:55
How old is Blizzard? I think it's not a long-term plan :(
2010-08-06 12:47:13
there you have a good point I believe he is over 25
try seezung! or trx
2010-08-06 15:30:33

2010-08-06 00:13:21

2010-08-06 00:15:02

in old attax played only one Roman, second in TBH, dont know which one :P
2010-08-06 00:30:30
Roman R = aTTax

roman = Team Bavarian Heaven
2010-08-06 01:46:29
TBH really means Team Bavarian Heaven? :D
2010-08-06 06:13:32
Yes.
2010-08-06 06:41:10
both played in mouz and attax, only the roman without R in tbh indeed :)
2010-08-06 11:44:41
Oh, I did think TBH esport = To Be Honest esport :D
2010-08-06 18:10:17

b4d to mouz instead of cyx 100%... he is good awper and nice rifler.. would be a nice choice..
2010-08-06 00:15:26
atm he is playing in the amature series and blizz is playing for mouz
2010-08-06 11:42:18
but as i heard, blizzard can not play for mouz as permanent player, cuz hes busy or something...
But as it is said probably this is a temporary stay for b4d...
2010-08-06 11:55:16
b4d go to mouz/n! pls :(
2010-08-06 00:16:03
b4d was a great awp player , i don't which guy from ALTERNATE aTTaX will awp now , but KenaN is a good rifle guy , so it's a lose and win situation in my opinion. So i guess b4d could go to mousesports now and awp fulltime there , if mousesports will still play. :(
2010-08-06 00:16:30
wasnt kenan the best awper for a while in EPS?
2010-08-06 00:17:47
Best awp in EPS? Don't know about that , i just know that he is a good rifle man :)
2010-08-06 00:18:31
kenan isn't awper
2010-08-06 00:19:08
my b4d
2010-08-06 00:20:01
:D
2010-08-06 00:20:27
moon and approx got pretty strong awps, too :p
2010-08-06 00:26:23
approx's awp is sick
2010-08-06 00:38:21
approx will play with awp ofc.
2010-08-06 06:41:49
approx, moon, seraph?
2010-08-06 07:23:56
Just saying , that b4d was the best awp they had imo , of course those guys can awp now , but b4d > anyone with awp at ALTERNATE aTTaX :)
2010-08-06 07:26:11
you must be kidding... approx awp is top 3 in the world..
2010-08-06 10:25:21

omg what is alternate doing? b4d is so much better than KenaN. I hope that he can fit into another higher level team.
2010-08-06 02:27:44
Sad :/ b4d is really good..
2010-08-06 02:49:51

CHEF KOCH to mousesports plz plz plz :D
2010-08-06 05:06:23
if thy want 2 spec him as 6th after sign KanyoN .. he is gone with better decision 2 LEAVE on his own...because he is giving consistently a good performance then also thy show him a BENCH so its GooD decision from his Side.. :)
2010-08-06 05:47:44
I really think the only suitable replacements for cyx are approx or Blizzard, hopefully Blizzard comes back into the team
2010-08-06 07:37:48
CHEF KOCH paN and b4d should play together.
2010-08-06 08:33:45

Does the American speak German or do they speak English in the team? Sorry I just never heard of KenaN. (I haven't played or been on hltv during the time he was recruited to Alternate)

KenaN speaks german.
Afaik he has a mixed background, he was born in Germany(?) but because of his parents he also has a dual citizenship of Austria and USA or something like that...

Oh noez!
The team gets worse and worse every time they lose a player.
The best one was:
ALTERNATE aTTaX | mooN
ALTERNATE aTTaX | paN
ALTERNATE aTTaX | roman
ALTERNATE aTTaX | CHEF-KOCH
ALTERNATE aTTaX | approx
The new is kinda... b4d! (haha wordplay)
