FeTiSh: "MODDII will join Epsilon"

1/7/2013 - 11:48

In the aftermath of Copenhagen Wolves' exit from the RaidCall EMS One Finals, Henrik "FeTiSh" Christensen stated that Andreas "MODDII" Fridh is on his way to Epsilon.

fnatic have been linked with roster changes in recent days after pulling out of the StarSeries finals in order to "find a consistent strategy for the future".

In Cologne, the Danish team made it to the semi-finals following a convincing 2-0 victory over LDLC.com in the first round, but then fell short against VeryGames, who would go on to win the tournament.

MODDII on his way out of fnatic?

Copenhagen Wolves are going through some problems of their own after losing René "cajunb" Borg and Bo "wantz" Vestergaard in the run-up to the EMS One Finals, but "FeTiSh" made it clear the team will not be raiding their Danish rivals, while revealing that Andreas "MODDII" Fridh has already chosen his next destination.

"I know that MODDII will join Epsilon," he told readmore.de "That is the biggest rumour at the moment.

"We have not taken a look at fnatic so far. It is not an option to fill our gaps with eventually ex-players from fnatic."

The Swedish player made the transition with the rest of the fnatic 1.6 crew at the end of 2012. He stepped down from the team in December, following a series of mixed results, only to return three months later, together with Lasse "stingeR" Midtstue, who has already been replaced.

Epsilon are on the lookout for a new fifth player after parting company with André "berg" Kjellberg last month.

The Swedish team finished runners-up to Ninjas in Pyjamas at DreamHack Summer with H2k Gaming's Martin "cENTRYZ" Brandal as a stand-in, but it is still unclear whether the Norwegian talent will join them on a permanent basis.

yep, i really like this lu too, if they bring their shit together, they're capable to beat whomever..

2013-07-01 17:40

The issue is, they signalled changes before EMS, which meant they essentially became a mix team and played without the added pressure of doing well. Meant that they could do better in a way. (Mental aspect) :)

2013-07-01 17:43

Epsilion looking for igl hmmm ..

2013-07-01 11:52

fnatic Might be Confused, so many Roster changes. They should stick together for a long time as CS:GO is not an Easy game to play.

2013-07-01 11:54

You do not understand how a big organization like fnatic works... They demand results and a return on their investment. This lineup just isnt giving them what they want.

2013-07-02 15:09

O_o

2013-07-01 11:55

nice!

"That is the biggest rumour at the moment." HLTV writing this of as if it had already happend, put a pro name underneath that statement and it's valid. I'm not saying it's not true, but it's far from reality as this is just the statement of someone saying that there's a rumour going around.

"I know that MODDII will join Epsilon" Nowhere in the piece do I write that it's a done deal. The author of the quote is identified and it's a legitimate quote.

2013-07-01 11:58

you should nt answer him hes a fool and cant read

2013-07-01 12:25

I didn't mean to be disrespectfull in any way, even tough my opening was kind of crude. I feel that the quote is translated and feels wrong in english. "So I know that MODDII will go to Epsilon. This is the hottest rumor currently. " First he states that it's a done deal only to point out in the second sentence it's a rumor, kinda weird. Anywho, I don't doubt your source nor its legitimacy.

So what? That just means that FeTiSh believes that MODDII will join Epsilon, not that MIRAA says so.. That quote was totally legit.

2013-07-01 13:38

Quotes aren't usually altered because they seem wrong. If Wesley sneijder says the queen is a bitch, that's what is written down, and not that she's a kind lady

2013-07-01 13:58

good move

jw flusha scneider moddii xyp9x would be great lineup

2013-07-01 15:04

:))))

2013-07-01 22:01

If it's true it could lead to a very strong Epsilon, depending on how MODDII will fit in. I'm wondering who could come up to replace him in fnatic. It sure doesn't look good for them either way, but maybe they needed a change after all. They were a top10 team for a while now, but struggled to step up their game. GL to them.

If fnatic have enough money and are convincing enough they can just pick apart another danish team to fill their own roster.

2013-07-01 12:49

MODDII at Epsilon would be great. Too bad for Fnatic..

2013-07-01 12:03

gl fnatic haha :D

good move!

2013-07-01 12:04

2013-07-01 12:06

Just like verygames. I know they can find a player that will fit into their team soon. I wonder if Navi and ESC will change player too since they don't have a decent career in CSGO ;)

It isn't just football "Silly Season" that starts in july... =D

+brain plz

2013-07-01 12:19

I guess this can be right actually. cENTRYZ seems like perfect player for them, so i actually can't see any places for moddii in this team except of devilwalk. But my opinion is that they have good line-up and shouldn't change anything.

2013-07-01 12:26

6 replies

They def. wont kick devilwalk, a bit weird "replacing" centryz with moddii tho

2013-07-01 12:29

Why wouldn't they ? He seems like the weakest link in Epsilon right now

2013-07-01 12:36

He is very strong aimer and seems like a good friend of them, cause he plays with flusha and schneider since S_Y.

2013-07-01 12:43

Yes, but imo cENTRYZ is already really better than him, and MODDII should be even more, so I don't see the point of keeping him, even though he might be a good friend, he is only holding them back

2013-07-01 12:45

Totally agreed about cENTRYZ, but moddii doesn't seems like a bigger player than devilwalk. It's like replace GeT_RiGhT by f0rest.

2013-07-01 12:50

Nothing against Get_right but f0rest brings more to a team than he ever could :D

That would be the worst move ever, epsilon are known for stupid changes tho so would not surprise me

2013-07-01 13:14

wow how can you be so stupid? dw>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>centryz + full swedish squad.

2013-07-01 20:23

I don't think it is true! He's just angry that cajun and wantz left the team :D

2013-07-01 13:48

That's not real communism. The ussr was never a real communist country.

2013-07-01 14:42

"real" communism is pretty much impossible to achieve

Yes.

2013-07-01 22:51

erm, it's actually you who doesn't know what communism is... cba to go into details, both russia and china have private property and that already means they're not communistic countries.

Why markeloff? Zeus > markeloff in GO.

2013-07-01 13:35

why ask me? ask them

2013-07-02 09:04

I am not sure if he will fit in Epsilon. Anyway, if Fnatic will change players AGAIN I will stop supporting them. They don't even get a chance to improve or what? I think trace played really good at the EMS finals, xypex was amazing, moddi and karrigan played decent aswell. Friis didn't had his best tournament, but he still is an amazing talented player imo. If moddi will leave fnatic they should probably contact cajunb?

trace and friis have had plenty of time to improve, but haven't. Trace actually had a pretty good tournament, what I watched of friis was some pretty horrendous awping.

Ok, they had plenty of time to improve, but will constant line-up changes help them improve?

As a team, probably not. Individually however they should all be improving, not hitting AWP shots has nothing to do with team changes.

2013-07-01 13:42

Yeah Friis is simply doing bad. You can't miss such easy shots all the time and still win matches.

2013-07-01 15:26

interesting

2013-07-01 12:30

/anti-flame barrier/ open mTw with danish players (with zonic) and hope trace will find himself in this new game transfer epsilon players (with MODDI) to fnatic NIP to sk-gaming organisation (real madrid of counter strike) Navi learn how to play CSGO with astonishing teamwork strats k1ck realize they need coachi and SHOUW madrifler once again just saying random things I would like to happen just like the old days xD

and SpawN makes a comeback with walle and element LOOOOOOOOL

2013-07-01 12:44

and fisker ;P not that far away scene xD

2013-07-01 13:05

+ strong ESC and it would be perfect CS:GO scene.

almost forgot ESC xD

2013-07-01 13:04

NiP to SK? lol, everyone knows that SK is a bad organisation.. NiP is legendary

2013-07-01 13:06

Moddii to join epsilon or epsilon to join him, that is the question.

noway .. it wont happen

I don't think so !!

2013-07-01 12:40

so it would be worth the output of moddii, if it were to add: ave or Sunde

U mad?

2013-07-01 12:51

Who is running this CSGO fnatic team? Since they transitioned to GO they have swapped out like 20 players. Not very professional and if I was fnatic management I would be asking wtf is going on? Seems like a waste of money

2013-07-01 12:56

carn

2013-07-01 13:20

omg

2013-07-01 13:00

would be very sad, so hopefully it won't happen.

2013-07-01 13:07

think it would be a great move for Epsilon, since they do lack something.

2013-07-01 13:09

after that pickup by Epsilon, i hope they will move to Fnatic

2013-07-01 13:13

jw chatted with MODDII many times on his stream @steam and they're friends i guess that's why it might be true

oh so if they're friends on steam, then the secret is out, moddi is obviously joining epsilon!

2013-07-01 15:12

A LOT OF CHATTING A LOT OF CHATTING A LOT OF CHATTING ON EVERY STREAM A LOT OF CHATTING

2013-07-01 15:13

Does Epsilon even have enough money to get Moddii? And do they have enough money to pay him a salary, cause im not sure if the guys in Epsilon are getting paid, lol. Also the best move for everyone involved in this rumour would be: Fnatic kicks their lineup (except moddii) and recruits Epsilon

2013-07-01 13:17

Im pretty sure they will never do that, fnatic are known for keeping a core and changing like 2-3 players in this case only xyp9x and moddii are on the level that fnatic are looking for.

2013-07-01 13:33

2013-07-01 14:41

2013-07-01 19:52

-colon +moddii

2013-07-02 08:25

no, they need a good awper :) I think it's a common misconception to call device main awper. He's more like a joker. He can pick it up if he feels like it - and do good. But coloN is specialized with the awp and better than device with it. Device is an all-arounder, and therefore they would need an awper to be a great team - hence +colon - moddi.

2013-07-04 15:04

what about friis ?

2013-07-04 16:17

too many unreal speculations posting here.

So that's what people were talking about in jw twitch chat.. sorry but expected then. Everyone who watched jw stream knows moddii was going to be the one.

2013-07-01 13:36

Well this is a lie, why would MODDII join a noname organisation and leave fnatic, to play with some low level players? wth...

2013-07-01 13:41

noname organisation, LOL

2013-07-01 13:45

loll Epsilon are better than fnatic and got more achivements than fnatic, why wouldnt he hahahah, pathetic comments from pathetic users

2013-07-01 13:52

Agree.

why does epsilon have some weird hype they're all shit and nobody quite knows how they managed to get 2nd at DH. bad move by MODDII if he does.

loled, they got 2 excellent lans so far and the lans were big ...where the fuck u've been so far jerk, they've got more achievements than fnatic HAHAHAHHA

2013-07-01 22:44

2013-07-01 22:59

It is possible that Moddi chooses talented players over a possible better salary of Fnatic, as indeed he was a long term and pretty much captain of the FNATIC csgo team, so most likely he was paid well better then the others. But then relatively speaking he will make alot more money with Epsilon in a national swedish team in national swedish tournaments. (even if he was not salaried) But thats not the case, as epsilon players are salaried. Epsilon (+2 LD) just won another lan this weekend, coming home with 5 expensive pcs, and a Dreahack winter package. Found the news on fragbite. I can see Fnatic picking up a allstar Danish team spread between CPH/WW who are both in pretty bad shape. good news for the scene, as the current Fnatic team wasnt ever going to win...and Epsilon seem to be stuck as well.

2013-07-01 23:30

Moddii jw twist cENTRYZ + caller (flusha?) that would be awesome :)

2013-07-01 23:40

On fragbite there are loose rumours about Epsilon + Moddii joining Fnatic orag instead. BUT only loose rumours.

Where the fuck is the organization SK.Gaming? CS scenes can't live without you! Existence of SK.Gaming means more viewership and trolls. Cmon pick a great team then!

2013-07-02 05:41
