Faruk "pita" Pita has confirmed to HLTV.org that they will not attend ASUS Summer this weekend. This come about as Swedish Housemafia never sealed the deal with Begrip Gaming and will now be without an organization.
The Swedish team, built last week around former Meet Your Makers star Faruk "pita" Pita, had been drawn in Group D and were due to take on Natus Vincere, fullhouse and Moralezz.
However, Begrip have announced they will not be attending the event, which kicks off Saturday, after some last-minute issues arose.
"There were some banking problems that got in the way of our trip to ASUS Summer," Pita told HLTV.org.
"Also Zyppe's passport was on the other side of Sweden, couldn't get it passport in time, because our flight was set to leave 13.00 tomorrow and he wouldn't make it in time."
Despite being announced by Begrip Gaming as their squad for ASUS Summer and EPS Nordic, Pita has confessed that his team will not be joining the organisation and are still looking for a home.
"We spoke to Begrip, and we said we would reconsider our cooperation, and that we will go official as a team without an organisation," Pita added.
This leaves Group D at ASUS Summer one-team short. So far, there has been no info as to whether a replacement will be found or the group will remain with three teams.
The team is now known as Swedish Housemafia, and house the following players:
Faruk "pita" Pita
Jonathan "lidde" Lidgren
Danny "pop" Oldenburg
Markus "pronax" Wallsten
Samuel "Zyppe" Martinsson
Marcus "zet" Sundström (EPS backup)
The team is now on a lookout for a new home and can be contacted by following email address - shm.contact@gmail.com.
The team is furthermore only participating in the upcoming season of the Nordic ESL Pro Series, meaning now big tournaments are planned at the moment.
