Former mTw star Danny “zonic” Sørensen has been picked up by mousesports, replacing Thanh Vinh "ninja" Bui who has stepped down from professional gaming.

DE Mousesports have made a change to their line-up, it was originally rumoured that former mTw clutch hero DK Danny 'zonic' Sørensen would be joining the line-up after much speculation from a number of news sites as well as Sørensen's hints via his Twitter. That rumour has now come alive, with DK zonic officially joining DE mousesports, in replacement of DE Thanh Vinh 'ninja' Bui, who will no longer play professionally to focus on his career, but will however remain as a substitute player.

Statement from zonic:
"Today I join one of the biggest teams in Counter Strike history, Mousesports. After the closing of the mTw 1.6 I have been talking a lot with karrigan since I wanted to play with him for a long time. I have always admired the Mousesports organization for their hard work, and especially their great tactical leader gob-b. Mousesports and mTw reminded each other so much when it came to the tactical part of Counter Strike, so it is a privilege to be standing besides these 4 great guys and hopefully I can be a part of getting even more success to the team. Mousesports is known for some of the greatest eSports players ever. Names such as gob b, Johnny R, kapio, cyx etc. is making me even more proud to call myself a mouz player! "


Most people will be wondering on how the team will communicate in game, but a recent interview with DK Danny 'zonic' Sørensen on xplayn.com has cleared this up. The team will continue to speak in German, with zonic taking up a course in the language which will be paid for by mousesports. His fellow Dane in the team DK Finn 'karrigan' Andersen said zonic is progressing well with his German.

This will surely bring greater strength to DE Mousesports by picking up such an experienced player. The teams recent achievements include winning their 13th season of EPS this past weekend, silver at IEM 6 Guangzhou, and bronze at ESWC 2011.
