Counter-Strike: Turmoil picks up n0thing

By: Nick Bee - Published November 06, 2007 at 8:01 PM EST - Writer Archive
Turmoil announces a big change to its roster with the addition of Jordan "n0thing" Gilbert.
At 6pm PST on November 6th, Team Turmoil officially made the annoucement that Jordan "n0thing" Gilbert is joining the squad's starting lineup. Turmoil's Matt "PaTyoJoN" Iantosca spoke with GotFrag regarding the situation.

"As soon as Perez let us know that he could not attend CPL, we started looking for players. Being west coast and having played with [n0thing] before, he was an easy choice. We approached him, he was not sure of his future plans because idemise was thinking about a comeback but I guess he made the better decision!"

As stated above, he will be replacing Joe "perez" Perez for all future Turmoil matches. After Gilbert's debut for the team yesterday in CEVO, Iantosca's "easy choice" was further solidified, saying:

"I think he brings a ton of skill and hopefully some new input into our strats. He's a lot like Perez which is what we were looking for in a player, someone that can run and gun."

Gilbert's former team, Check-Six, continues to fall apart with recent departures from starters Hostile, Des1re, and Crypt1c. Feelings over the loss of Gilbert from the roster are mixed according to the former member.

"Well, as some people know Des1re and Crypt1c are both off Check-Six for reasons of their own. So the only real check-six members left were thomz and - although he didn't officially join our team - eng. I'm not gonna say any names but there were definitely people who were disappointed with the move, some of them being past or present check-six members. But at the same time it was a decision I solely had to make and am happy I made"

He continued by mentioning that many friends were supportive of the decision and wished him well.

Turmoil is scheduled to play Check-Six in next week's 5-1 matchup, however with only Thomz and eng remaining on the CEVO roster, that does not look likely. Following that match they will take on Stacked Like Pancakes for week 5-2 on de_nuke.

Good pickup, probably best US player atm. But didn't Turmoil feel pretty strongly about kicking him out a while ago?

#14 elaborate.
I know x6 had TWO (after you got removed, desire just randy bailed, and cryptic also randy bailed) official members[I think with the plans of adding eng and Wilson as full time members,no clue though] but basically it was stay on a team with two official members or goto a team with a brighter future. That, from a business and playing standpoint, is a good decision. As for the behind the scenes stuff the community has no clue. Don't just say "one word. Shady" at least explain why it is shady.
