Team SoloMid pick up dignitas

25/1/2015 - 20:42

According to team dignitas website, the CS:GO team who just placed third at MLG X-Games Aspen have left the organization to join Team SoloMid.

After spending a fairly successful year in the British organization, the Danish team who previously went by the names of Copenhagen Wolves and über G33KZ have left dignitas.

The move comes minutes after Nicolai "⁠device⁠" Reedtz's team defeated fnatic 2-0 to clinch the third place at MLG X-Games Aspen, the first international CS:GO tournament in 2015.

karrigan's team are set to join TSM

This marks Team SoloMid, one of the best known League of Legends organizations, entering the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive scene, following in CLG's footsteps.

Though Team SoloMid have not announced the move yet, but dignitas have posted a statement that spoiled the surprise and publicized the Danes' intention to join TSM:

"Today unfortunately we have to say goodbye to our Danish Counter-Strike: Global Offensive lineup. The players have decided not to renew their contracts at the end of the month and will be joining Team SoloMid from February 1st.

"We have nothing but great things to say and would like to thank the squad for their services during their time in Team Dignitas. We wish them all the best in their future careers.

"For us this means having to move on and we're excited to announce our new CS:GO roster shortly."

Assuming the move will be confirmed, Team SoloMid will be represented by the following roster:

René "⁠cajunb⁠" Borg
Nicolai "⁠device⁠" Reedtz
Peter "⁠dupreeh⁠" Rasmussen
Finn "⁠karrigan⁠" Andersen
Andreas "⁠Xyp9x⁠" Højsleth

Team SoloMid's first international event will most likely be ESL One Katowice, the next CS:GO major, which they qualified for at DreamHack Winter. It will take place on March 12-15.

ayyyyyyyy

Is TSM a big org in another game?

i think i've heard of this name in connection with LoL, not sure though.

LoL. Logitech, HTC, Twitch, iBuypower, Kingston. One of the biggest of the big times, mate.

2015-01-25 20:48

They're huge in LoL

2015-01-25 20:57

LoL Hearthstone

They're enormous in LoL.

Deponeret to dignitas :)

2015-01-25 21:38

why u think UK would pick up Danes again? maybe they will pick up dAT or maybe someone else? since s1mple said that they will have soon sponsor/organization idk. but still a good chance for depenoret to take place in dignitas.

2015-01-25 22:04

I don't know it just a feeling i got :) Who else gave them a better offer than CPH?

2015-01-25 23:40

2015-01-25 21:33

Well just want hltv members to know :p didn`t write it twice the same person.

I know.

Expected.

dafuq

karrigan's MAGIC ! .

dignitas will probably pick up deporenet or a british line up.

lol fuck reginald

tsm wonnered

Wow, the timing sucks for dignitas.

Why?

They just managed to reach the podium of a big tournament and the team is promising. Just when this line up could become successful and bring some fame to the structure they leave.

2015-01-25 21:01

They leaved for something better. TSM is such a rich organisation, probably gave them a huge offer they couldn't resist. With an organisation like TSM they will have even more opportunities to become even better. With this tournament they really showed TSM they didn't make a mistake by picking them up.

I agree with all you said, but it's still a pity for dignitas. When your line up is starting to perform it's a bit painful that they leave. But I never said the player choice was bad, they're obviously doing the right move.

2015-01-26 09:38

Well is TSM good?

one of the richest orgs in the world. they have a famous LoL team.

2015-01-25 23:15

"one of the richest" nice to hear :D ty

2015-01-25 23:23

EG should pick LDLC

I am with you.

+++++++ LDLC the only top team without a big eSports org.

2015-01-25 21:22

2015-01-26 01:13

Alliance is the EU version of EG, so it'd probably be them. But yeah, perfect pickup for them.

2015-01-26 03:07

TSM from Santa Monica, California, USA

gotta change all my backgrounds and avatars n shit...

Haha same here. Feeling weird about owning a Dignitas jersey now though...

Was about to buy one :D haha great timing

now i've seen it all, where are the danish dig fans lol.

2015-01-25 21:39

poor you :D

2015-01-25 22:15

DAMN, that's sick

There's money to be made.

2015-01-26 10:02

TCM pls :( 1 letter away

TSM WONNERED AGAIN GUISE

Hopefully they pick up a UK team

As interesting as that would be, I can't think of a line-up that's been stable enough to convince Dignitas. I would imagine they'll want a line-up that can at least compete with the current team.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DIGNITAS :(

Did TSM wonned?

expected /s

CS:GO "League of Legends" Edition?

I thought TSM was a NA organization... oh well more EU teams now because DIG will have to pick up a new team.

TSM is American orga

2015-01-25 21:44

Why would they pick up an EU team than I was hopping for better NA scene with the help of the new arrive meant of Liquid, CLG, and Curse Academy maybe.

because na teams are tier 2 max. they could create one tier 1 team and a few tier 2 teams with a bit of shuffeling

2015-01-25 22:59

holy shit

Also Dignitas to pick-up Deponeret

TSMMMMMMMMMMMM

loL

So many new CSGO organisations awesome, and best of luck to ex-Dignitas in TSM!

mTw... :^(

lol what?

Ok I got it...they rush only mid

2015-01-25 21:45

2015-01-25 21:55

Not a chance. They'll pick up former Copenhagen Wolves.

TSM! TSM! TSM! WOOOOOO, TSM WONNERED INC

2015-01-25 22:26

RIP img3.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/deseaso..

2015-01-25 22:30

at least 1 north american organization invested in a top4 team. team Liquid, cloud9 and counter-logic gaming should have done more research first

2015-01-25 22:34

yeah, I mean they are good for mid team, but if they want to compete in Europe, dreamhack and so on,.. they should pick more better team, as dignitas :)) hehehe

2015-01-25 22:50

cloud9 liquid and clg have tons of money, they could have invested in the all-star american lineup (hiko, swag, dazed, ska and azk) and in european scene. I believe they have more money than ldlc or titan or hellraisers or dat etc. NA scene is dead

2015-01-25 22:43

Dignitas take exIBP ftl

2015-01-25 22:52

How long were those guys playing for dignitas now? Can someone remember the previous lineup before the cph wolves joined them?

2015-01-25 22:53

TSM gayest name. rip dig :,,(

Next news: SKT T1 pick up ex-ibp.

Rather LDLC

2015-01-26 00:09

Implying that SKT is a LoL team? Go away :(

2015-01-26 02:22

Cool. More big organisations getting into CSGO is good. Former Copenhagen Wolves to Dignitas then.

NA organization picking up an EU team. So sad....

2015-01-25 22:58

SoloMids suck. Dual Wisp + Tiny mid > all

All these League orgs picking up CS:GO teams... are they finally seeing the light?

its just because for the first time in years the NA scene is actually a little bit relevant

2015-01-26 03:10

TSM has a NA fandom and they pick up Danes rofl..not gonna be many supporters

those fanboys probably just cheer for the logo not the players. anyone who would care about that probably wouldn't even notice.

2015-01-26 03:33

Soo fucking patriotic, ugh. What's with this attitude that NA orgs can only pick up NA teams!? Wtf, makes no sense. I know you like to pretend their lol team is American, but we all know they're carried by a Dane already. They're far better off picking up a pretty good EU team that are quite marketable and likable guys than a tier 2 NA team that will never reach international playoffs... Of course them picking up ex-IBP wouldve been awesome but theres so much drama there that well have to wait to see what happens. But theyll get picked up eventually as long as they can separate themselves from Dazed. Theres no other NA teams worthy of a decent sponsorship after them atm. That's 4 teams, so you can't really expect more.

2015-01-26 03:35

Not even worth replying to, bro. Next thing you know it's about how TSM is outsourcing true American jobs. TSM was wise enough to invest in a team that's proven to have the talent. Especially after today, the Danish squad can pat themselves on the back.

2015-01-26 10:06

just wow, probably no1 expected that lol.

2015-01-25 23:01

i did

2015-01-25 23:26

I called it on hltv like a month ago. This got out a while back and people were writing it here and there actually.

Kripp as IGL - called it

2015-01-25 23:02

noooo diggy

2015-01-25 23:19

the name is so moba oriented...kind of sucks

expected but what a stupid orga name, not sure if i can like them anymore with retard orga

Did TSM win?

2015-01-25 23:44

Very nice pick up by TSM. I was wondering when they were going to throw their hats in the CS ring. Now I wonder if they'll pick up a Halo team as well seeing as other big LoL teams have.

2015-01-25 23:49

Randomly read that they tried but it fell through recently.

2015-01-26 03:36

It could have been Mid or Feed.

2015-01-25 23:58

Better still be a Danish flag besides the TSM name!!!

2015-01-26 00:00

Oh, yeah. I don't know much about TSM in league, but I know Bjergsen in their best player right? So ironic then to see all these patriotic Americans claiming superiority and whining about them picking up a Danish team in CS. Morons. They're already carried by danes in league... They should be appreciative.

2015-01-26 03:38

no one is claiming superiority just because they picked up a team, but finally an NA org has a team that is capable enough to compete with the best consistently... even if the team members are danish themselves.. thats why people are happy

2015-01-26 05:25

because the organization thats gonna pay them and let them have a gaming house, is Danish right?

2015-01-26 05:21

Its pretty normal to play under the flag of the players nationality. Dignitas is a british org yet they played with the danish flag.

2015-01-26 09:06

They're going to have a gaming house? Source? As far as i know 3 of them is going to start university soon

2015-01-29 19:03

2015-01-26 00:01

Nice. CSGO growing and growing <3

2015-01-26 01:26

Dignitas will get deponeret lineup

2015-01-26 01:32

I have problems with a CSGO team being called "Team solo mid". What a stupid name. And they barely even have a logo.

2015-01-26 01:43

But Dignitas... thats the company in Switzerland that lets you commit suicide cleanly and painlessly, so I arent think that TSM is a worser name

2015-01-26 02:21

but they are sponsored by HTC so who cares

2015-01-26 03:09

Dignitas is kind of a sterile org without much hype or life to them, though. Don't you think? Seems soulless and without any personal relations between org and players. Just a business trade. Fuck em. At least TSM seem lively and real :)

2015-01-26 03:40
