Denial sign ex-Winterfox

The team that was shortly playing under the name PiedPiper after parting ways with Winterfox has been signed by the North American organization Denial.

The new five-man lineup of the ex-Winterfox core has been revealed earlier this month, with the Swedish duo of Alexander "⁠SKYTTEN⁠" Carlsson and Christian "⁠Spitfire⁠" Schiölde joining the trio of David "⁠Xp3⁠" Garrido, Todd "⁠anger⁠" Williams and Kyle "⁠flowsicK⁠" Mendez, but they were left homeless since their former organization picked up a team of Australian players.


XP3 and co. will be moving to a team house in California

As announced today, the squad will be joining Denial, who were without a CS:GO roster since late 2015. The team will also be moving to a team house in California, where they will practice for the following events: MTW Premier League, ESWC 2016 Qualifier, NA Major Qualifier and ELEAGUE Qualifier.

Denial's roster is as follows:

France David "⁠Xp3⁠" Garrido
United States Todd "⁠anger⁠" Williams
United States Kyle "⁠flowsicK⁠" Mendez
Sweden Alexander "⁠SKYTTEN⁠" Carlsson
Sweden Christian "⁠Spitfire⁠" Schiölde

i dont think they will do much, steel said it first. you will not get anywhere with anger. I have hope tho
2016-08-24 21:46
They pick up the team that should be in pro league but got replaced by some australian team to continue the tradition of denial getting fucked over by ESL.

You dont have to be good to get a team house lmao... why do people think this? This is standard in professional esports nowadays. Only teams that dont have one didnt want one.

did you read the article? they have a team house to prepare for qualifiers, not even a tournament where they're in already, and if they fail to qualify in all the qualifiers(will happen)? Denial are paying them to do nothing lol

Did you read my comment? Team houses are standard for all porfessional esports teams (in esports that actually matter) nowadays. Denial is a professional team.

I know, what i'm trying to say is that they're not in a professional team level i mean they go to a amateur lan and they dont even win that
2016-08-25 14:06
Also, they would be giving them brand exposure. It isnt nothing. Its quite a lot actually.
2016-08-25 03:45
Came back to this discussion because i just clocked out of work. Brand exposure = getting the denial name shown on streams of tournaments etc. More brand exposure = bigger sponsors. Bigger sponsors = more $$$

Skytten and Flowsick will be removed for nonamers and then the team will eventually be dropped.

congrats to denial for the worst roster signing of 2016
2016-08-24 22:42
Now I guess they wish they would have lost that Pro League relegation match against old Denial when they were Winterfox. At least they wouldn't be a Premier team now (it's their level anyway but that rule is still ridiculous, the winner of the relegation match is in Premier and the aussies are in Pro League rofl).

RIP Denial name. Just like how compLexity used to be a name feared across the land, Denial will soon drop to tier 9.
2016-08-25 03:52
I doubt skytten and spitfire have any real hope for this lineup xd It feels more like lets move to US for a while and have a good time type of thing.

I think it's safe to say that if this roster doesn't somewhat succeed, it will pretty much be the end of flowsick and anger's professional CS careers; and off to overwatch they will go.
2016-08-25 06:41
why NA never come to us? :( would be nice to see NA come to eu team.. they really good aimers and would help diversify us even more :D
