FYRR73 moves on from WinFakt
Time: 2012-08-28 13:58
Game: Counter-Strike 1.6

As previously rumoured just over a week ago, Emil "FYRR73" Karlsson has departed from WinFakt and could be on his way to becoming fnatic's fifth member.

Karlsson has been with the same core team since the summer of 2010 following MYM's disbandment, as he joined H2k which later on became Lions, then Lemondogs and eventually just months ago WinFakt.

Since joining WinFakt Karlsson has only attended DreamHack Summer 2012 where his team bailed out at group stage of the main tournament and placed third in the Swedish Championship. In the past year he elevated his individual play to a higher level, which might be the reason he is leaving now.


Will FYRR73 be the next player to don the black and orange colors of fnatic? 

Former H2k and Lions teammate of Karlsson, Richard "Xizt" Landström left fnatic earlier this month to pursue a career in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive with Ninjas in Pyjamas.

This move leaves WinFakt with the following roster, which according to their management on their website, will hopefully be filled soon as they plan to continue supporting CS 1.6:

Frej "kHRYSTAL" Sjöström
Jim "zneel" Andersson
Niklas "niko" Johansson
John "wenton" Eriksson

It is currently unknown when fnatic plans on announcing the final member to their team, but it has been rumoured it would be Karlsson, as it would also match CGO Patrik "cArn" Sättermon's tweet containing the digits "73".

Why fnatic (carn inter alia) still keeps intrigue? All this already well known more than two weeks :-/
2012-08-28 14:29:56
Niklas "niko" Johansson one of the very few who stayed loyal to his friends in this game imo.
2012-08-28 14:35:06
true, he had an offer from fnatic in early 2011 and rejected it...
2012-08-28 15:28:06
NEO and co :D

But yea, I've always been a big fan of H2k/Lions/WinFakt because they've had the same core for the past few years. I was thinking with FYRR73 now leaving and threat already retiring that things would be winding down for them. But its nice to hear they are still gonna continue and with 1.6 :D

Next news. Face joins winfakt. then 1.6 might have some life still in it. top 4 teams. Fnatic, esc, navi and winfakt (if face joins them). The possition isnt in order of thoes 4 teams but it would be for sure top 4 teams in world in 1.6. All we need is tournaments and sponsors!!!"
