Heya Red! Howcome you're going to play the ESWC qualifiers together with SK this weekend?
I honestly don't know, SK called me yesterday and asked if I could play with them, so I went to Inferno Online and we were there until midnight playing CS together.
Today I found out that I was going to play the ESWC qualifiers with them.
How did it work gameplay-wise and socially during the first evening with the team? Do you see a continuance with SK if everything goes well throughout the qualifiers?
I really can't tell, it's way too early yet, but I bet everyone wants to play for such a stabilized organization like SK.
Do you have any information about why striker hasn't continued to play for SK during the ESWC qualifiers?
Unfortunately not, but from what i've seen, striker has been playing very well during all of the games he played with SK. You shouldn't exclude strikers chances just because I play a pre-qualifier for SK to the ESWC.
What qualities do you bring SK? Why do you think that they chose you?
As I said, I am only a stand-in for SK during the ESWC pre-qualifiers, I think they chose me just because i'm available.
It's been a while since you left 4Kings, what have you done since then?
Not much in particular, disregarding all social stuff i've only been playing as if I didn't have a clan. Playing with -RR- (Rektumriddarna, I guess you can call it a mixteam consisting of friends - explanation afterwards) almost every night.
Rumours have been spread about a new line-up in Eyeballers where you were one of the players. Were you involved in a new Eyeballers team? Have you had any other interesting offers?
Have had extremely many offers lately, despite the fact that I haven't shown what i'm capable of, but unfortunately enough I can't comment further into what i've been offered.
If not SK, can we count on seeing you in another venturing team in the future?
That's fully possible, as long as I enjoy gaming i'll always continue.
Thanks for your time and good luck playing with SK this Saturday! Any last shoutouts?
Thanks!! -RR-

SK Gaming at ESWC Pre-Quals Saturday
This Saturday SK will participate in the Swedish ESWC Pre-Qualifier at Inferno-Online in Stockholm. Eight teams will be fighting for the first place which leads to a spot in the Swedish ESWC Qualification Finals at Dreamhack 16-19 June.
SK have been seeded as #1 and the new team of Begrip as #2. There's also a few local mixteams attending which should make this an interesting start of the qualification!
The last spot in SK will be filled by none less than Louis "Red" Nyberg, Swedish national team player and former 4Kings member. This means that SK will be attending with the following lineup: allen
fisker
Red
RobbaN
SpawNSK-Gaming.com will of course be on site this weekend to give you the latest news, results, demos, pictures and other juicy information from the event!
A short interview with Red, which was originally made on Fragbite in Swedish, has been translated by Simon and can be read below.

Anyways gl SK :)
Rakaka ftl =)
Btw, why replace striker with Red? :O
Wasn't striker good enough? Or SK just want to try with someone else?
Too bad, striker began to have a good teamplay, and I guess the chemistry in the team was good. Why change a few days before the pre-qualifiers :o?
Good luck SK
gl dude (;
learn to read pls
Only a stand-in, but they want to try ReD instead of striker..
Striker didn't make any lan with them, dunno why he can't play to proof how good he's at eswc.swe..
Really shame decision to me..
SpawN
Robban
allen
Striker
Red
that's it !
looking forward to ESWC
I think a lot of you guys have already accepted striker as SK's 5th player :) We'll just have to wait and see what happens ..
FISKER IS A ROLE PLAYER, HE DOESNT NEED TO FRAG A LOT TO CONTRIBUTE .. he is what every championship team needs, a role player
btw, i think red should become the permanent 5th
Red + SpawN + fisker = easywin
Anyway GL SK and striker/red!
