karrigan: "[won't] leave mousesports [for mTw]"

Imagemouz player karrigan has stated he will not be leaving for mTw, though he has been contacted by the Danish team.

DK Finn 'karrigan' Andersen has officially confirmed he will not be leaving DE Mousesports for DK mTw . With DK mTw needing a replacement for the recently departed DK Michael 'Friis' Jørgensen, who himself had replaced the retired DK Alexander 'ave' Holdt, karrigan seemed to be a suitable candidate for the Danish team in many people's eyes.

karrigan told XplayN he would not leave mouz for mTw and that his tickets for IEM VI Guangzhou are already booked with German team. He also stated his desire to repay mouz's decision to give him a chance in the first place earlier in 2011.

mTw confirmed they had been in contact with karrigan but that they are not interested in recruiting him.

mTw-manager Mathis 'LnK' Edel said:

"I can confirm that we at this time are 100% NOT interested in Karrigan. We have been in contact with him, yes. Hes obviously a great player."


DK karrigan commenting on the potential of joining mTw (translated via google):

"There are rumors that mTw should have contacted you to sign you. Er det korrekt? Is that correct?
No, the rumors are pure lies, because I personally have not heard anything from mTw.

Mathis Edel from mTw said to XplayN.com that mTw has been in contact with you. So you mean that the mTw manager lied?
Contact can be interpreted in many ways, but one thing is certain: I will not switch to mTw. I am fully satisfied where I am, it was a fantastic choice for me then and it still is. To confirm that I am not leaving mousesport in favor of mTw today I got tickets for IEM in China."


karrigan's progression towards the top level took its largest leap when he joined up with p00nhandlers, also featuring ArcadioN and Friis, in July of 2010. That team upset mTw at the Danish WCG qualifier, but was humiliated in the group stage of the WCG Grand Final. Under the name Full-Gaming the team once more tormented mTw in bo3 series at DSRACK #3 and KGC #2, placing 1st and 2nd at those two events respectively.

When mTw took in ArcadioN the team survived only until the beginning of November. Days later karrigan was signed to mouz's lineup for 2011. The year proved difficult for the German team prior to gob b's return in June, with not top 4 placings at international events. At e-Stars Seoul last month mouz were able to finish 5th-6th. mouz just missd out on a spot at IEM VI New York, losing the third place game against SK Gaming.
