Counter-Strike: Dignitas removes wilzOOO

By: Luis Mira - Published August 19, 2007 at 11:00 AM EDT - Writer Archive
Dignitas has confirmed the removal of James "wilzOOO" Wilson.
This move ends Wilson's seven-month association with Dignitas, after coming from the ranks of c4urself in January.

He played a major role in the team's second place in the World Cyber Games qualifier, after missing the first half of the Grand Final because of failing to arrive at the venue on time.

Wilson has apparently been asked to leave the squad in a move Dignitas believes to be important for the team's future.

"I am obviously sad with that incident and wilzOOO leaving as he has a bright future in gaming but a team decision was made," Michael "ODEE" O'Dell, team manager in Dignitas, told UKCounterTerrorist.com.

Former 4Kings talent Marc Mangiacapra will replace Wilson in Dignitas' starting-five in the upcoming UKPL matches and in the CGS Region 3 qualifier, with Dignitas saying CGS to be the team's top priority.

"Our CS 1.6 team will play in the UK Pro league but will mainly focus on the CGS event in September," O'Dell added.

The new Dignitas line-up will have its debut tonight, against immolate, for the UKPL league.

Dignitas has now the following roster:

United Kingdom Sam "RattlesnK" Gawn
United Kingdom Pete "Reality" Wright
United Kingdom Adam "AdY" Brown
United Kingdom Stuart Harriman
United Kingdom Marc Mangiacapra
