Breaking News: Ambush Takes a Break from Counter-Strike - Top Players Sent to Bench, Future Uncertain!
In a surprising move, Ambush, the Danish organization, has decided to step back indefinitely from Counter-Strike. The decision comes just three months after signing the roster, led by Mikkel "Maze" Sparvath. Back in April, Ambush had expressed their determination to conquer the esports world and provide their fans with an exceptional experience.
During their brief three-month stint under the Ambush banner, the European team struggled to make a mark in the competitive scene. Their appearances were mainly limited to ESEA Cash Cups and online qualifiers for major events. Unfortunately, their performances in these tournaments fell short of expectations. Ambush's participation in the Gamers8 2023 Europe Open Qualifier 2 ended in joint last place, and they faced elimination from European Pro League Season 9 after suffering defeats against Enterprise and ECLOT with a disappointing 0-2 record.
The decision to withdraw from Counter-Strike comes after nearly five years of participation in Valve's shooter. Throughout their tenure, Ambush fielded various rosters, with past lineups including prominent players like Rasmus "raalz" Steensborg and Danny "BERRY" Krüger in 2019-2020 and an all-French squad featuring talents such as David "devoduvek" Dobrosavljevic and Christophe "SIXER" Xia in 2022.
As Ambush takes a step back, their current roster finds themselves on the bench:
- Mikkel "Maze" Sparvath (Denmark)
- Niels Christian "NaToSaphiX" Sillassen (Denmark)
- Miikka "suNny" Kemppi (Finland)
- Joonas "doto" Forss (Finland)
- Milen "milky" Iliev (Bulgaria)
With Ambush's decision to put their Counter-Strike endeavors on hold, the future of these talented players remains uncertain. Fans and the esports community await further updates on the organization's future plans and potential roster changes.
