pyth to stand in for GODSENT in Atlanta

Jacob "pyth" Mourujärvi will be filling in for Andreas "znajder" Lindberg at GODSENT's upcoming event, DreamHack Open Atlanta.

The Swedish team announced that they would be using a stand-in at DreamHack Open Atlanta, the $100,000 CS:GO event that will be held from July 21-23. 

The player that won't be able to make the event is Andreas "⁠znajder⁠" Lindberg, who, according to the team's press release, has a vacation planned for the days on which DreamHack Atlanta will be held.

To fill the spot left open by znajder, GODSENT decided to use the former Ninjas in Pyjamas member Jacob "⁠pyth⁠" Mourujärvi, who is already bootcamping with the team in their offices in Uppsala.

GODSENT's Interim Head Coach Graham "messioso" Pitt gave the following statement on the matter.

"Back in January, long before the major cycle was announced, the team had decided to go on vacation a week before the widely agreed player vacation, in order to return earlier and get ahead. Things change, and we have now accepted an invite to attend Dreamhack Atlanta, but will not cause disruption to Andreas "znajder" Lindberg's vacation which was booked many months ago."

"Thankfully the perfect stand-in, Jacob "pyth" Mourujärvi, was available and willing to join us in Atlanta. Jacob has been team-less since leaving Ninjas in Pyjamas in May and is hungry as ever to get back in the game at a pro level. The team and Jacob are currently bootcamping at our Uppsala office ahead of travelling to the event and are looking forward to doing some damage."

This is what pyth had to say about playing for GODSENT:

"I'm happy to get the chance to play with a team like GODSENT here in Atlanta. I've missed competing and I've been pretty inactive lately focusing on other stuff in life so I'm super hungry to come here with the boys and try to claim the title."

GODSENT will use the following five in Atlanta:

Markus "⁠pronax⁠" Wallsten
Joakim "⁠disco doplan⁠" Gidetun
Simon "⁠twist⁠" Eliasson
Jonas "⁠Lekr0⁠" Olofsson
Jacob "⁠pyth⁠" Mourujärvi (stand-in)
