Das Lineup von mousesports ist wieder vollständig. Wie soeben bekanntgegeben wurde, verpflichtete der Berliner Traditionsclan den Finnen Aleksi ‚allu‘ Jalli von ehemals ENCE eSports. Erste große Bewährungsprobe für das Team ist der ESL One Qualifier unter der Woche.
Anfang Juni trennte sich mousesports von Timo ‚Spiidi‘ Richter. Seitdem spielte das Team mit verschiedenen Stand-Ins. Unter anderem war Oliver ‚kzy‘ Heck im Gespräch, der allerdings zurzeit in der ESL noch eine zweijährige Sperre absitzen muss. Da kzy dementsprechend weder an der ESL One noch an der EPS teilnehmen darf, holte mouz zumindest für die laufende EPS Summer 2014 Christian ‚crisby‘ Schmitt ins Boot. Mit crisby gewann mousesports zwar beide bisherigen EPS Cups, doch offenbar stellte diese Option keine dauerhafte Lösung für das Team dar.

Stattdessen testete das Aufgebot bereits vor einer Woche im ersten Gfinity G3 Qualifier das Zusammenspiel mit Aleksi ‚allu‘ Jalli. Unter anderem mit einem Sieg gegen das norwegische Team London Conspiracy und der Qualifikation für das LAN-Event verlief dieser Test durchaus erfolgreich.
Nun stellte der Clan den Finnen offiziell als neuen fünften Mann vor. allu wird dabei bereits heute Abend in dem dritten EPS Summer Cup für seinen neuen Clan auflaufen. Zudem wartet bereits morgen Abend die nächste Bewährungsprobe: mousesports will im South-West Qualifier den ersten Schritt Richtung ESL One Cologne machen.

“Hey! After we’ve parted ways with Spiidi, we took ourselves quite some time to play with a few promising players to complete our roster. In the past weeks we had the opportunity to practice and play with Aleksi quite often and it turned out very well for us. We were satisfied with our performances as a team and we believe that this lineup has potential in future tournaments. We’re very happy to welcome Aleksi on board, as he has proven to be a deciding factor in his former team and we are sure he can fill in that role in mousesports, too!“

“After taking our time to see which options we had and trying out some different players we are happy to announce Aleksi „allu“ Jalli as our new fifth. I have known him for quite a few years now, being impressed by his skills since the 1.6 era. It is clear he plays at the same or even a higher level in CS:GO, yet his team seemed to be lacking the same motivation or skills that he possesses. We will obviously return back to English as our main language in the team, since allu comes from a Finnish team and we spoke mostly German it might take some time for this to fully workout. But we have the confidence that it will. Since allu also prefers to play the AWP like myself, we will be switching the main AWP role up depending on the map. We both prefer to AWP on different maps/sides so I’m sure having two AWPs will only be an asset to our team.Our first goals will be some nice results in EPS Germany, a good showing on the G3 Gfinity LAN in London and ofcourse qualification to the ESL One tournament in Cologne. Thanks a lot to mousesports and their sponsors BenQ, EpicGear and XMG for remaining confident in our line-up despite the difficulties we had.“
+ Statement von Aleksi ‚allu‘ Jalli
“Today is a day of mixed emotions, I am very glad to announce that from now on I will be playing for one of the biggest organisations in the world and I will do my utmost to repay the faith they have in me. This ofcourse means that I will be leaving my former team ENCE which is really sad as I have played with the same guys more or less my whole CS:GO carreer, but I think I personally needed a change and a team that has same ambitions as I do. All of my former teammates have been very understanding about my decision and I thank them and wish them the best of luck in the future! At last I would like to thank my new teammates for this opportunity and of course mousesports and their sponsors BenQ ,EpicGear & XMG. May my stay in mouz be long and succesful one!“
