trace replaces whiMp in mTw.dk

ImageThe man who won ESWC at such a tender age, Jonas "whiMp" Svendsen, has been replaced in the mTw.dk starting lineup by young gun Martin "trace" Bang.



It has just been announced that Martin "trace" Bang will take the starting spot of Jonas "whiMp" Svendsen within mTw.dk. Reasons for whiMp's decision to step down were cited as a need to focus more on real life and his education. His replacement is a mere 19 years old and will have a lot to prove replacing one of the all time great Counter-Strike riflers. According to the mymtw side whiMp will remain as a backup.

trace has played for teams like Mirror and AndThenSome though thanks to mTw.dk's dominance and the general lack of teams who can compete outside their national borders of Denmark trace has rarely been given the opportunity to show what he can do when it matters.

whiMp is without a doubt a gaming legend at this point. Winning ESWC with The-Titans as just a boy and helping them to a silver medal at the WCG, both in 2004, perhaps the most telling sign of his impact was when he was unable to play in both CPL events that year and his team only managed 6ths. After joining mTw.dk in 2008 he sparked them on to winning Kode5, ESWC Masters, WEM and WCG.
