kHRYSTAL and friends win DreamHack Skellefteå

ImageThe winning team of DreamHack Skellefteå consists of a mix team. The "team" walks away with 20 000 SEK and a WildCard for DreamHack Winter.



The opposit team in the finals, Obites, only managed to get eight rounds on two maps according to Rakaka.se

kHRYSTAL had already played before with the other four players, and decided to jump in right after having played at the Extreme Masters in Dubai and just before having to leave for the International esports Festival on the 30th of October in Korea.

The team consisted of Frej 'kHRYSTAL' Sjöström, kHRYSTAL's brother: Finn 'qp' Sjöström, Erik 'berra' Bergqvist, Xist and John 'wenton' Eriksson; you may remember some of them from different teams who participated at DreamHack Skellefteå last year and placed 5th-8th.

kHRYSTAL tells us what he thought about the tournament and how he enjoyed it:

"It was very fun and I felt a little nostalgic playing with my friends in a mixteam at a LAN, it was so long ago since I last did that.

The biggest difference is the tactics, when we tried some basic strats it didn't work out at all. We won all our rounds just because we had better aim. In the groupstage we played with mp3 and nosound, but in the semi-final and grand final we at least played with headsets on.

It was a very easy win for us, the final was easier than i thought it would be."
