Danish esports organization ECSTATIC has announced the addition of former Tricked rifler Magnus “Nodios” Olsen to their CS:GO roster. The 23-year-old Danish rifler will be placing Casper “Cabbi” Jensen, who has been benched after playing under the ECSTATIC banner for just seven months.

The decision to bring in Nodios comes after ECSTATIC failed to qualify for the RMR, prompting the organization to make a change in the roster. In a statement released on [link:{"url":"https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1ss8q3g","isNewTab":true,"text":"TwitLonger"}], Cabbi acknowledged the decision and expressed his gratitude towards his now former team.

“I understand that a change was needed after we didn’t qualify for the RMR, and that choice became me, which I see as fair,” wrote Cabbi. “I don’t think my time in ECSTATIC was my greatest time individually, but this is something I always worked on and never will stop doing.”

Despite the change in roster, Cabbi remains under contract with ECSTATIC and has been given permission to play with other teams for tryouts. He remains open to both Danish and international teams and encouraged interested organizations to contact him or ECSTATIC’s Twitter account.

Tricked Esport is once again ready to field a full lineup with the Danes announcing the signing of Magnus ”Nodios” Olsen. The 23-year-old rifler arrive at Tricked after having represented first GORILLAZ and then TITANS this year. Here he played alongside the likes of Tomáš "oskar" Šťastný and Miikka "suNny" Kemppi.

Niels ”rizc” Topp, Sports Director at Tricked Esport, has stated the following regarding the transfer of Nodios.

- Nodios is a fantastic player, and a player with experience from a slightly higher level than we are playing at right now, rizc said and continued:

- What we see in him, is a player who will give everything for the team to win, who communicates really well, takes control if necessary, and last but not least - he has plenty of firepower. 

Nodios is set to replace the long-standing member Andreas “kiR” Kirstein, who was benched earlier this month after a lengthy stint for the Danish side. On the Tricked squad, Nodios will get to play with the former Astralis AWPer Philip “Lucky” Ewald with him being the most profiled player on the roster.

The #60 world-ranked team of Copenhagen Flames has just taken down MIBR at the ongoing Snow Sweet Snow 2. The Danish Danish underdogs managed over three maps to defeat the strong Brazilians lead by Ricardo “boltz” Prass, with Copenhagen Flames winning the vital Group Stage matchup and sending MIBR under the line.

Something, Copenhagen Flames comprehended way better than the former BOOM roster, where Magnus “Nodios” Olsen stepped up for the Danes by averaging a strong 1.25 Rating throughout the match.

19-17 (Overpass) | Nodios – 1.32 Rating / 35-24 K-D / 96.6 ADR

Since the beginning of the month, the rosters' future had been in question. After Marcus "maNkz" Kjeldsen and Magnus "Nodios" Olsen returned to their previous team Copenhagen Flames, x6tence was left with three players remaining in Daniel "mertz" Mertz, Jesper "TENZKI" Plougmann, and Jonas "Queenix" Dideriksen. x6tence have just announced the removal of the three Danes, and thereby the Danish roster in total. 

After having given the international stage an attempt, with both an Argentinian and Danish roster, the organization will onwards focus on developing and establishing a roster of local talent. In a statement regarding the news, the organization explained its future plans as well as the reason for removing the final three players: 

“This decision is part of x6tence's objective to reinforce community values and closeness with its fans, as well as with the detection of national talent that our organization, a historical reference in Valve's shooter, has always shown," They carry on by explaining: "which leads us to recover our essence and to bet on the latent talent at the base of our country.”

Hopefully, the Spanish organization x6tence will succeed in its plans regarding developing new local talent, as there are currently few top-tier Spanish Counter-Strike players in the scene.

After announcing the benching of “Daffu” and “Basso” from their line-up, the Danish organization has just confirmed that they have picked up Magnus “Nodios” Olsen and Marcus “maNkz” Kjeldsen on a transfer agreement from x6tence to round out their roster.

“Nodios is one of the players who has been the longest in Flames. I know he is a player with strong opinions about how the game should be played, and he’s skilled at taking initiative both on and off the server. maNkz was of course the IGL on x6tence and the last time he was in Flames, so he’s obviously also a player to come on with initiative and leadership who can help make the crucial calls when we need them. I personally have great faith in this team, otherwise we wouldn’t have made this change, I’m convinced that with hard work this team can be the best Flames line-up we’ve ever had.” Co-owner, Daniel Vorgborg said.
