Das CS:S-Team von Magnitude entschied sich nach anhaltenden internen Problemen dafür, die Organisation zu verlassen. In einer Stellungnahme schreibt eXce, dass vor allem finanzielle Unklarheiten zu diesem Schritt geführt haben. Kurz drauf meldete sich Gabriel Moraes, Verantwortlicher bei Magnitude, zu Wort und versucht, die Situation aus seiner Sicht zu schildern. Auf eine weitere Zusammenarbeit konnte man sich allerdings nicht einigen. Das Team bleibt laut Aussagen vorerst zusammen, Veränderungen im Lineup soll es keine geben. Übergangsweise wird man unter dem Namen xoxo weiterspielen.
Statement xoxo|eXce:
„From this day forward, Magnitude and the team will go separate ways. The main reason for this is that the promises made within the team and management were not kept. We will approve that Gabriel did allot of great things for us, he sent us to lan79 with a weeks notice, afterwards he spent a lot of money on Dreamhack and then TEX.dk. That is the main reason that we stayed there for so long, we felt we were morally bound to stay within the ranks of magnitude, since he spent a lot of money on us with nothing in return and his promises sounded reliable. But then he failed our last request for him, we said he had until the end of the month to sort out all his promises. With 5 days left we contacted him saying that we would leave if this did not get sorted, and his answer to that was basically „all right fine, thank you for the time“ We will stay together as a team and we will keep playing the current leagues we are in. Thank you for the good things you have done gabs.“
Statement Gabriel Moraes, Verantwortlicher von Magnitude:
„Great team, great guys. I promised them wages at the end of this month. With 5 days left of September, I am in L.A and told them I’d come see them October 3rd when I get back. Apparently that wasn’t good enough. I take 0% of what they win, I support them coz i believe in them. I don’t respond to threats, so just said cya. I know a few of them don’t back this decision but I’ve been wanting to make some changes to this lineup for a few weeks now after getting to know them, so hopefully will be back stronger within the fortnight after I get home to sort this. gl boys.“
