ECSTATIC announced the signing of ex-Tricked rifler Magnus “Nodios” Olsen onto their CS:GO lineup in place of Casper “Cabbi” Jensen, who was benched after seven months on the team. <\/p>\n

This move, which was finalised on Wednesday, follows ECSTATIC’s failure to get a place in the BLAST.tv Paris, Major Europe RMR<\/a>, which is due to start on April 6. <\/p>\n

ECSTATIC revealed they felt like a change was needed after failing to qualify, hence the signing of a new player. ECSTATIC’s COO, Jeppe Taggatz Jensen, stated that Nodios’ availability during that period made the swap easier.<\/p>\n

“After we failed to qualify for the RMR, therefore also the major, we felt that a change was needed,” he said. <\/p>\n

“Nodios became available around that time, which made the decision less difficult as everyone following the Danish scene was aware of his skills. <\/p>\n

“So naturally, we are very excited that Nodios is joining our team. We believe he will be an important piece in getting our team to the next level.” <\/p>\n

ECSTATIC has qualified for the CS:GO<\/a> ESL Challenger Melbourne recently after securing victories over squads like Honoris, Aurora, Forze, and Sprout in the event’s closed qualifiers.<\/p>\n

Cabbi was a part of Masonic’s lineup for six months before signing with ECSTATIC in August 2022. During his seven-month stint with the team, the player averaged a 1.02 rating across all maps. <\/p>\n

Cabbi’s performance picked up a bit in the past three months, moving up to 1.03. His overall rating is slightly lower than ECSTATIC’s new player Nodios, who reached a 1.05 rating across 171 maps with Tricked and 1.04 in the past three months.<\/p>\n

ECSTATIC commended Cabbi for being a great teammate and overall good player in the release and promised to find a suitable team for him to transfer to.<\/p>\n

“That being said, it’s also a really sad day because we have to remove Cabbi from our active roster in order to make space for Nodios,” Jense said. <\/p>\n

“Cabbi is a great guy that everybody likes, really hardworking, and a really good friend to all of his teammates. We will help him find a new team where he can continue to grow even further.” <\/p>\n

With Cabbi benched, ECSTATIC’s current lineup includes Marcus “maNkz” Kjeldsen, Tobias “kraghen” Kragh Jensen, Jonas “Queenix” Dideriksen, Jason “salazar” Salazar and Nodios.<\/p>\n
