Counter-Strike: mYm releases CS team

By: Jason Loadholt - Published February 11, 2006 at 3:36 PM EST - Writer Archive
Team MeetYourMakers, a top European multigaming organization, has recently announced they have released their Counter-Strike squad.
In late 2005, the European multigaming organization MeetYourMakers adopted the Swedish team Embrace. However, as of yesterday, the partnership the two had shared came to an end. The team attended Dreamhack Winter 2005 and was not able to achieve a good placing. It is certain the team's performance was subpar, and roster changes could not remedy the situation.

According to the MeetYourMakers website, the feeling between the organization and the Counter-Strike squad to move on was mutual. The MeetYourMakers organization has stated this will not signify the end of their involvement with Counter-Strike, and plan on bringing in a new team.

Rumors have appeared on other websites that MeetYourMakers had already found their new squad, but MYM.raptor-gaming's Public Relations director Henrik "kepler" Andersen remarked saying "there's probably nothing in it".

Henrik "kepler" Andersen also made a statement on MeetYourMakers.com saying:

I feel kind of sad of the results that we have made together, because I feel that this team has some really nice potential. But we couldn’t get it to work, so therefore the natural solution is to break up and move forward. I wish the boys best of luck in the future, and I am looking forward to meet them all again at different events.


The players released include:

Germany Jonas "joNas" Kugland (Leader)
Sweden Frederik "Jaegarn" Andersson
Sweden Daniel "Duell" Niemi
Sweden Alex "insanez" Abdalian
Sweden Vilhelm "Paradox" Schönning
Sweden Björn "Threat" Pers
