naSu quits Power Gaming
By: MIRAA
Time: 2011-01-21 18:07
Game: Counter-Strike 1.6

Power Gaming have announced that Niko "naSu" Kovanen has decided to leave the team.

The Finnish player, who had been part of PG since the organisation signed Crack Clan in 2009, has opted to become inactive in order to focus on personal commitments of his.

"He has for quite a while now felt unmotivated and grown tired of spending all the necessary hours playing the game and decided it´s time to concentrate on other things in life," PG captain Joona "natu" Leppanen told the team's website.

This is the second roster loss of the day for Power Gaming, who earlier saw Kimmo "BASiC" Fagerholm star his own project at Elukkaveljekset Gaming Club with former PlayZone team-mates.

Kovanen's departure leaves Power Gaming with a three-man roster, with Leppanen stating his team "will come back stronger than ever."

Power Gaming have been tipped for a move for Tomi "lurppis" Kovanen, who is due to return to Finland in the next weeks after a stint with Evil Geniuses.

The Finnish team currently have:

Tino "tihOp" Puumala
 Samu "plastE" Alto
Joona "natu" Leppanen

yeah already read it... still to make the best fin lineup would be that, the best move.
2011-01-21 18:24:51
ofc, because they would have 7 players!
2011-01-22 15:56:26
ofc u missed math class.. they have 3 players... -natu they would have only 2.. add basic lurppis and conte would make 5.. douchb4g

btw :"felt unmotivated and grown tired of spending all the necessary hours playing the game and decided it´s time to concentrate on other things in life,"

a lot of you should think about it and do the same.

2011-01-21 19:42:41
yea hopefully lurppis and conte/ruuit
2011-01-21 19:47:30
contE and lurppis would be two great additions. hopefully contE is motivated after sucha long break for CS. really good player when he got the motivation and lurppis well, he was the main reason EG could become a topteam.

with this lineup Finland would finally have a team to compete with the best again, even though they might not win a lot of events, they would still finish on a pretty good placing most of the time i think.
2011-01-21 19:48:26
indeed, both plaste and conte together would make a huge impact on this team. lurppis as a igl and this team could suprise!!

maybe a swedish player + lurppis or ruuit and lurppis but he said than ever so there must be something else :)
2011-01-21 21:37:15
contE is back from the army soon! and ruiit didn't quit for nothing he is probably not coming back ;<
2011-01-21 23:34:26

I dont get it, these Finns really need to put together the old CrackClan/GamePlay lineup, its the only lineup FInland can produce that will become great.

naSu
contE
plastE
ruuit
jigetus

Im sorry but natu, tihOp, lurppis are all washed up and should just quit the game and Freon, SPIKEONE, etc are not good enough as the rest. This is the only lineup that will bring Finland a championship.

+1, but imo lurppis is still able to do headshots so i wouldn't close him out totally :D
2011-01-22 14:26:50
Yep lurppis was shooting great those last matches in EG
2011-01-22 19:42:13
Lurppis would do much more impact in the team than one mad fragger would.
2011-01-23 11:44:42
I agree
2011-01-23 13:42:42
