Geposted von Brasozial,
Im Mai trat EZskins.com das erste Mal als Organisation in CS:GO auf und nahm das Team exceL unter Vertrag. Nachdem man jedoch nicht erfolgreich genug auf den ESL UK Premiership Season #1 war und nur den dritten Platz belegen konnte, trennte man sich wieder von dem Team. Nun nimmt die Organisation ein neues Team rund um Sam 'RattlesnK' Gawn unter Vertrag.
Die Organisation von EZSkins.com erhofft sich nun mit einem neuen Lineup mehr Erfolg zu haben und endlich wieder ein UK-Team in der internationalen CS:GO-Szene zu etablieren. Das Team, für das sie sich entschieden haben, ist das von XENEX rund um den bekannten Spieler RattlesnK, der sich vor allem in CS:S einen Namen machen konnte, aber auch zu Beginn von CS:GO erfolgreich war.

Das Lineup, welches erfolgreich die ESL UK Premiership Spring Finals gewinnen konnte und somit wohl das beste Team aus der UK-Region ist, hat nicht nur die Organisation gewechselt, sondern wechselt auch zwei Spieler aus. Die Spieler Joe 'JT' Talbot und Jonathan 'sheekey' Sheekey mussten das Lineup verlassen und wurden ersetzt durch Brandon 'Weber' Weber und Luke 'fearLess' Morris. Dies sind zwei bekannte Spieler, mit denen RattlesnK schon bei FM eSports zusammenspielte.

In einem Statement von RattlesnK und Henry 'HenryG' Greer, dem Leiter von EZSkins.com, erklären sie den Wechsel der beiden Spieler sowie die Ziele und Hoffnungen, die sie in ihr Team stecken.

Statement Sam 'RattlesnK' Gawnk:

Despite our recent triumph with XENEX at the ESL UK Premiership we decided that in order to reach our full potential we would need to make changes to our personnel and organisation.

With Luke and Brandon we acquired two of the best UK players who have shown their quality and will undoubtedly make us stronger in the future.
The balance to the squad is far superior than with previous UK teams and I feel this will help us develop a solid team that is capable of playing as I always envisaged.

It’s honestly been extremely difficult over the last two years to find five UK players with the dedication and ability to play the game as I’ve wanted. With this line-up I feel we will at least stand a fighting chance of showing that a UK team can deliver and provide exciting and fluid CS.
Under the EZskins backing we will be fully supported by guys we consider friends and therefore in time I am confident we will bring them the results they deserve.

I know many people seem to think UK players are lazy or don’t deserve anything but we all feel privileged to have this opportunity in a game we have a genuine passion for. We all play because we want to be successful and prove that the UK scene can and will prove the countless doubters and haters wrong.

Statement Henry 'HenryG' Greer (CEO EZskins.com):

It brings me immense pleasure to announce the EZskins.com CS:GO team. It's a project we've been working on for the last 3 months and starting our own eSports organisation has always been one of the main targets to work hand-in-hand with the item raffle website.

I appreciate that the state of CS:GO within the 'UK Scene' has become somewhat of a meme on certain parts on the internet but that's exactly why I wanted to assemble the best possible British line-up to challenge Europe and reclaim the success we had in the CS:S era.

I am confident Rattlesnk is the right man to achieve this goal and he has my full backing to lead this team in the direction he sees suitable. We'll be playing online as much as physically (and virtually) possible and be looking to compete at international events before the year is out.
Thanks to our current sponsors: Vulcun.com and GreenManGaming.com and of course, you can find our more information about the team at www.EZskins.com
