"I just love our new lineup.. first of all, its SO MUCH more fun to pracc now.. and everyone is dedicated to the game and everyone have the same goals, we get so much more done during pracc then we did with the old lineup. After we won IEM in Kiev, I didn't enjoy praccing at all... At some point I almost felt like quiting because it was such a pain. I am pretty dedicated to the game and when I'm playing with some people thats not taking it as serious and almost every day is late to practice, and always tab out to chat on facebook etc during matches.. stuff like that, made it very boring and annoying to play. That is probably the main reason why we performed so poorly and why I have been performing so poorly individually from my POV.."

"Then we started to talk some more and we agreed that we would need a raw madfragger, someone that could defend a bombsite by himself, in order to compete with the other topteams out there. We talked about alot of players, but after a while we all agreed to bring in manne. Sadly that meant that Faruk had to step down, he is a good player and a good friend but we felt that these changes were needed."
