Galaxy Racer sign Japaleno roster

28/6/2020 - 19:37

Galaxy Racer, a Dubai-based esports organization, has announced the signing of the Swedish roster Japaleno, headlined by Joakim "⁠Relaxa⁠" Gustafsson and Fredrik "⁠FREDDyFROG⁠" Gustafsson.

The Swedish roster competed under the Japaleno tag throughout 2020, spending the majority of the year around the #70 spot in the world rankings. The squad with no organizational backing finished MDL Season 33 as third and competed in a number of online cups, but their biggest success was making the closed qualifier for cs_summit 6, where they were eliminated by Complexity 2-1.

Relaxa and co. have signed with Galaxy Racer

The team consists of Relaxa, FREDDyFROG, and Niclas "⁠PlesseN⁠" Plessen who have been playing under that Japaleno tag, on and off, since 2017. Simon "⁠tabz⁠" Feldt and Adam "⁠dezon⁠" Wahlqvist complete the lineup of Swedes that have now joined Galaxy Racer, the local organizer of the Girlgamer Esports Festival. Finally, Christian "⁠chrille⁠" Lindberg, who coached a number of Swedish teams in the past, will be taking on the head tactician role for the team.

Galaxy Racer are now:

Sweden Joakim "⁠Relaxa⁠" Gustafsson
Sweden Fredrik "⁠FREDDyFROG⁠" Gustafsson
Sweden Niclas "⁠PlesseN⁠" Plessen
Sweden Simon "⁠tabz⁠" Feldt
Sweden Adam "⁠dezon⁠" Wahlqvist

Sweden Christian "⁠chrille⁠" Lindberg (coach)

Tabz: Oh okay there's basically this "sugar daddy" system on Twitch that's not official or anything just happened somehow. But basically, dude who got a lot of viewers, hosts the person so they get bigger and they get something in return. They donate money, subs and they get something in return The way you spoke about you wanting to do full time thought you were interested in that kinda thing
