NiaK names France ESEC squad

1/8/2014 - 11:32

France captain Jérome "NiaK" Sudries has revealed which players he has called up for the upcoming European Championship.

Last year marked France's first appearance at the European Championship, where they finished in second place after losing to Denmark 3-1 in the grand final in Belgrade, Serbia.

Due to their success, this year's French line-up remains largely the same, though Edouard "SmithZz" Dubourdeaux, who was part of the team that played in the grand final, and Nathan "NBK-" Schmitt, who earlier this week ruled himself out of the team, are notable absences.

kennyS the only Titan player on the roster

Epsilon and LDLC have contributed four players each to the team, with the remaining two positions being filled by Matthieu "matHEND" Roquigny from Platinum and Kenny "kennyS" Schrub as the sole representative from Titan. The full team is as follows:

Dan "apEX" Madesclaire (Team LDLC.com)

Vincent "Happy" Schopenhauer (Team LDLC.com)

Hovik "KQLY" Tovmassian (Team LDLC.com)

Kevin "Uzzziii" Vernel (Team LDLC.com)

Robin "GMX" Stahmer (Epsilon)

Fabien "kioShiMa" Fiey (Epsilon)

Gordon "Sf" Giry (Epsilon)

Richard "shox" Papillon (Epsilon)

Matthieu "matHEND" Roquigny (Platinium)

Kenny "kennyS" Schrub (Titan)

With the deadline for roster selection now closed, you can expect to see the remaining teams, including Spain, Portugal and Italy, announced in short order.

Only one titan player? lol edit: never the less, i think this would be the most appropriate lineup for the baguettes: Happy, KennyS, shoxiE, kio, apEX. KENNYS AND apEX should learn to get along with each other. Happy best IGL in france!

2014-08-01 11:34

The other titans player couldn't

2014-08-01 11:37

Why is it that they dont get along? What happend?

2014-08-01 14:03

There was one incident that i couldn't remember, then there was the other one where apEX took the majority of exLDLC back to the organization and left out GMX and kennyS out from the transition. kenny said it was something that apex offered him the 3rd membership role instead of uzzziii but kenny declined to backstab them. This was before ems one katowice, apEX picked uzzzii the one that was supposed to be left out just to fill the role of a 3rd member so they get the ticket to katowice as they were top8 in dh winter as recrusive. (this story is not 100% accurate, but from what i remember and it was from one side *KennyS* and i didn't sleep in the last 24hr so i could be making this stuff up)

2014-08-01 20:00

excpecpted who is niak?

2014-08-01 11:44

Titan/Ex VG manager

2014-08-01 11:55

Titan's manager.

2014-08-01 11:58

Titan/VG manager, he is working with Ex6TenZ on CS since 2009 i gess.

2014-08-01 14:17

nice

2014-08-01 11:34

kennyS best others rest.

2014-08-01 11:44

where is fxy0 ^teh^b3zT

2014-08-01 11:47

i` think, they win ESEC.

2014-08-01 11:57

apeX KennyS Happy Shox Kioshima Best lineup but i'm not sure Shoxie will be the more motivated, he didn't play a lot of match in previous Esec. I hope he will this year.

2014-08-01 12:01

Uzziii? are you fuckin kidding me?.....

2014-08-01 12:05

whats so funny?

2014-08-01 12:11

Uzzziii has been playing fucking amazing, he had a rough start but has got straight back into it. He is a superb support player and clutcher.

2014-08-01 13:36

sad that nbk can't compete due to the high schedule... :( hope to see you next time there

2014-08-01 12:27

Will kenny and apex play together?

2014-08-01 12:34

We'll have to wait and see. If they let their personnel beef get in the way of playing their best, they're as good as dead. No f0rest,Pasha and NBK..

2014-08-01 12:49

apex (riffle, open bombsite) Happy (very good LIG and good riffle) shox (riffle, clutch master) KQLY (AWP) NBK (riffle, he's the best titan for me) Best LU but miss NBK :( Don't pick kennyS, maybe he is good AWP but he play too much for himself, KQLY has a better teamplay.

2014-08-01 12:38

that's kenny's role in Titan lol If it wasn't for him playing so well on his own, Titan wouldn't be half as good as they are

2014-08-01 17:30

Feels like a succinct lack of Titan but once you realise Titan has 2 Belgian players then it makes sense... In order of preference: 1. shox 2. Happy (IGL) 3. kioShiMa 4-5. apEX 4-5. kennyS/KQLY Backup: Uzzziii/Sf

2014-08-01 12:42

uzzi? o.o

2014-08-01 12:47

Where is NBK ???

2014-08-01 13:02

GMX and Uzzii were a little "weak" when current LDLC and Clan Mystik / Epsilon were created but i think they are the ones who improved the most. Curious to see mathEND with these players

2014-08-01 12:50

why mathEND idd? fuks had a huge preformance at dh valencia: hltv.org/?pageid=181&eventid=1424&gameid..

2014-08-01 13:00

Fuks is belgiqn, this is a mistake from hltv.

2014-08-01 14:07

nah, i'm french :d

2014-08-01 14:20

What the? Y a eu dla.preference au niveau du choix ou bien :0

2014-08-01 15:19

shox apex happy the core of the team that shouldn't be changed at any given time kenny/qkly - two good awp-ers to choose from and mix it up uzzii is certainly the best choice to fill the last spot but they could also try someone else here and there

2014-08-01 13:02

area ????

2014-08-01 13:10

Haha that's exactly what i thought +322

2014-08-01 13:55

Happy(IGL) KennyS(Awper) Shox(Madfragger, clutcher) apEX(Madfragger, Entry-killer) KQLY(Support Player, Secondary Awper, Main Pistolero) ez win for france with this lineup. wait will they play in a team? kennys-apEX kennyS-shox shox-apEX LOL

2014-08-01 13:25

I'm pretty sure that shox doesn't have problems with others. imo kioshima instead one of the awpers will be a better choice

2014-08-01 14:02
