Lions part with CS team

HLTV.org has learned that Lions and their Counter-Strike team have gone seperate ways. 

The Norwegian squad has decided to part company with their organization after several disagreements over a longer period of time, uttering it is time to move on.

Rumors the past week had indicated that former MYM and NiP member Øyvind "KF3" Magnestad would join up as the team's permanent fifth player, replacing Michael "mikkis" Sokki. 

Going from rumor to reality, Øyvind Magnestad was today confirmed as Michael Sokki's replacement. Together, the team will continue their careers. 

HLTV.org knows that the team is already in talks with a new organization, though supposedly not 4Kings. 

These five currently stand without an organization:

Thomas "Vertigo" Andresen
 Øyvind "KF3" Magnestad
 Martin "hellzerk" Solbakken
 Tommy "tacky" Mosgaard
 Karl-William "kalle" Haraldsen

too bad, hope they find another orga

2010-08-10 23:34:38
One more disbandment...bye bye Lions

Norway has so many good players, hope they can build a stable squad, they deserve at least one.
2010-08-10 23:34:42
if u watch the archive you see that a lot of good teams begin to disband ..

These guys got an ace stuck somewhere, and I think this team especially looks better on paper.

Let's see what the future brings :D
2010-08-10 23:35:35
ex h2k, for sure.
2010-08-10 23:36:44
Hope the team will stay alive in another org. .)) I love 'em (OK, I like mikkis more than kalle or Vertigo, but thats just personal opinion..so I am sad that mikkis is the one who "part ways" with Lions).
2010-08-10 23:36:45
Lions
Burning
FireGamers

2010-08-10 23:38:54
k1ck? wtf?
k1ck still have their squad.

K1CK fox
K1CK SHOUW
K1CK axoN
K1CK muTtTt
K1CK coachi
2010-08-10 23:54:20
4Kings would probably send k1ck to international tournaments more often, but still..
2010-08-11 01:55:13
HaHaHaHa Nice Joke . 4Kings would definately think to grab good players, k1ck is not at that level of even LIONS H2K or ex MYM . So Think twice mate before u write such post .
2010-08-11 09:20:29
1st of all I didn't say that 4K should or would grab k1ck lineup, and probably you shouldn't talk about a them that you don't know that well, remind you that k1ck won Lions when they had REAL last year's Gamegune with 19.11. I think they aren't the best option for 4K but they aren't that bad ;)
2010-08-11 14:46:59
Not to be a fanboy or anything, but they were infected with swineflue ;xxxx
2010-08-12 00:21:16
swine flu? Swine flu is just a lie from OMS.
how can you say that?
2010-08-12 16:53:29
Firegamers still is pretty solid with the same lineup they had on ESWC lol
2010-08-11 00:04:32
FX got the team for such a long period of time, they have to break up soon for sure...
2010-08-11 02:11:08
k1ck?
2010-08-11 12:42:27
Hm. not really good news, hopefully they will find a better orga really soon :)
2010-08-10 23:37:48

2010-08-11 01:56:01
heahaehaeh
2010-08-11 02:18:21
that would prolly be the best lineup Norway could produces right now but i would only replace syrtekz for hellzerk.


4k^REAL
4k^prb
4k^KORN
4k^hellzerk
4k^DaY

now that would be my allstar Norwegian lineup -_-

i do love kf3, this is a new chance for you dude!

I hope you will reach the top this time ;).
2010-08-11 11:46:00
Im 90 % its team convention or something
2010-08-11 12:48:31
I though they were doing fine :(
2010-08-11 16:02:23
all gone wrong since pekky left.

I thought the team was going to go really far, they just need to stay together. Shame about CS is that even big teams aren't managed properly, never stay together long enough to make a lasting impact.

anywho, hellzerk is gunna be one of the best players in the world imo, kf3...is not.

How did you get Pekky in with Lions?
2010-08-12 02:51:53
Sorry, I meant since pekky stopped playing - my bad :)

However my other points stand valid!
2010-08-12 15:15:01
yes! the whole norwegian cs scene depended on what pekky did. that makes sense.
2010-08-12 15:16:30
I'm glad you agree :)

Norwegian cs-scene = dead. once again ;)
2010-08-11 17:10:53
Dead? If you take the time to read the content in this article you will find that the roster is already in contact with a different org, hence not dead.
2010-08-11 18:09:14
the norwegian cs scene died when cbteam parted. Lions were never a TOPteam, and they will never be that either ;). U need players like REAL to make that happend, and as far as i can see, Lions never had someone like that.
2010-08-12 00:20:01
SK destroyed them too haha
2010-08-11 18:42:12
cbteam will return through 4KINGS , guees this is a new trend that started with emulate rebirth into to mellenium
