UK CSGO organisation EZSkins is looking for a new team after all of its players quit.
The team consisted of Sam “RattlesnK” Gawn, Brandon “weber” Weber, Luke “fearLess” Morris, Reece “Puls3” Marrs and George “hudzG” Hoskins.
The EZSkins CSGO team was originally formed in the summer and went on to take part in the DreamHack London tournament in September, where they lost 16-2 to Team Dignitas.
Despite that loss, the team’s overall performances were generally strong – and this helped them win the Gfinity UK Championship by beating Team Infused in the final.
“UK eSports is dead” – or is it?
Similarly, several players have left Team Infused’s CSGO team.
We understand Neil Murphy, ZED and Whindanski will look for a new org over Christmas, with CRUC1AL perhaps playing for FM-eSports, and Infused potentially sticking with redSNK.
Team Infused lost 3-1 to United Estonia in the ESL UK CSGO Premiership grand final back in October.
EZSkins owner Henry “HenryG” Greer told HLTV: “I can’t say that I’m not disappointed. This has been our passion for the last year, establishing ourselves as a self-sustaining organisation, not having to answer to corporate sponsors and being able to provide the UK CSGO scene with a stable, professional platform to work from.
“We offered them everything and still it’s just not quite enough. I thank the guys for trying and for being honest with themselves (and us) once they realised that all UK roads inevitably lead here.”
Henry did say he won’t be giving up just yet, and is planning to find a new roster, but that his hope for building a new UK team “is diminishing”.
Disappointing news, I’m afraid. After five long months. The CS:GO team have thrown in the towel for @ezskinz: https://t.co/mc4p6RdTUV
