Counter-Strike: LUq returns to MYM, pionas joins

By: Luis Mira - Published November 17, 2008 at 1:57 PM EST - Writer Archive
Meet Your Makers has confirmed more roster changes in the Counter-Strike team.
The Danish organisation announced on Friday the release of longtime member Lukas "LUq" Wnek, a move that came in the wake of the team's 5th-8th placing at the World Cyber Games.

However, MYM has now confirmed not only the return of Wnek to the Counter-Strike team but also the addition of former Frag eXecutors man Filip "pionas" Pionka.

The player to make room for Pionka is Jakub kuben" Gurczyński, who had been part of the Polish giant since July 2006. With Pentagram/Meet Your Makers, Gurczyński won back-to-back ESWC titles in 2007-08, as well as the WCG title in 2006.

Lukas Wnek: Back to MYM
"In our attempt to find the reasons behind our bad results, and lack of team spirit outside the game, we took a hasty decision and removed Lukas last Friday," a statement on the team's website reads.

"After cooling down, we have thought the situation over once again, and we feel that Lukas can bring more to the table than Jakub can.

"To replace kuben we have taken in pionas, and we feel that he brings with him a thirst, commitment and a hunger that can motivate us even more."

Pionka's first international appearance for Meet Your Makers will be at DreamHack Winter WGT, which is due to take place from November 27th-30th.

Meet Your Makers has now the following line-up:

Poland Filip "NEo" Kubski
Poland Wiktor "TaZ" Wojtas
Poland Mariusz "loord" Cybulski
Poland Lukas "LUq" Wnek
Poland Filip "pionas" Pionka
