After months of struggling to achieve success Mousesports react with a lineup change just weeks before the ESL Pro Series Finals, replacing Franz "gore" Burghardt with his old mate Christian "Blizzard" Chmiel.

Mousesports have not achieved the results they wanted in 2009, starting with losing during groupstage at the Extreme Masters III European Finals, a second place at KODE5 Germany, not qualifying for KODE5 even in Sweden at DreamHack and struggling at ESWC Cheonan finishing with a 9-16th standing at KODE5 Globals after going through three qualifiers.

Now they removed Franz 'gore' Burghardt as he is burned out and needs a break according to their announcement. He is being replaced by former long-time mousesports member and mate Christian 'Blizzard' Chmiel. Starting tomorrow Blizzard will fill the spot at least until the ESL Pro Series Season XIV Finals have been played which are taking place on June 13th to 14th 2009.

Mousesports roster:

Fatih 'gob b' Dayik
Finn 'karrigan' Andersen
Roman 'roman' Ausserdorfer
Danny 'zonic' Sørensen
Michele 'zonixx' Köhler
