EYEBALLERS lecseréli Svedjehedet Peppzorra

SZEMBESZÉLŐK have opted to pull the trigger and make a roster move just before the start of the new year. Peppe "Peppzor" bórax has joined the active lineup in place of oroszlán “⁠Svedjehed⁠” Svedjehed, whose contract with the organisation expires at the start of 2023.

The change in personnel marks the lineup’s first roster move since vörösbegy "flusha" Rönnquist és a Jesper "JW" Wecksell revived the legendary SZEMBESZÉLŐK brand back in June.

Svedjehed was a part of the Swedish quintet for just under a year, joining the squad while it played under the Hellslayers tag back in February, before signing with SZEMBESZÉLŐK alongside the rest of his teammates in the summer.

The Swedish youngster struggled to find championship-level form whilst under the tutelage of flusha és a JW, however; the rifler exits the active roster with a 1.00 rating over 113 maps played, a middle-of-the-pack performance compared to his peers.

The team as a whole has also failed to live up to expectations despite recently qualifying for ESL Challenger League Season 44. The side’s only first-place finish came in their debut tournament under the SZEMBESZÉLŐK banner when they triumphed in the four-team Svenska Elitserien Spring 2022 Finals.

Outside of this, the Swedish outfit, who peaked at just No. 62 on the world ranking, put up sub-par displays in their runs through several online cups, notably exiting their two appearances in the CCT Central Europe circuit in 22-23rd and 23-24th place.

JW and flusha bring back EYEBALLERS

SZEMBESZÉLŐK have recruited the services of Peppzor in a bid to get the Swedish ensemble back on track. The 20-year-old recently departed fnatikus after twice serving both the main roster and the academy team over the span of a year and a half. Peppzor‘s biggest highlight whilst plying his trade with fnatic Rising came in the form of the international roster’s campaign through WePlay Academy League Season 5, where they became the first team other than MOUZ NXT to win the academy league.

The Swede’s market value has seen a significant increase in recent times; the rifler impressed in his latest stand-in stint for fnatikus at Elisa Masters Espoo, where he had considerable impact with a 1.16 rating to power the European combine to a gold-medal finish and win the organisation its first LAN trophy in three years.

“We have had our eyes on Peppzor for quite some time now, and we are delighted to be able to announce the recruitment of such a prominent rifler,” said JW, who is also the co-founder and CEO of SZEMBESZÉLŐK, in the team’s press release.

“One part of our overall aspiration with EYEBALLERS is to nurture Swedish Counter-Strike, one key component in that ambition is to constantly scour the scene for the best talent. We identified Peppzor early in our scouting process and we are excited to now call him a teammate.”

“I’m extremely happy to have been given this opportunity. EYEBALLERS is a legendary organization,” Peppzor added. “JW, flusha, and I share the same ambition, we want to compete for the biggest trophies and I believe this transition will help me massively to reach my goals.”

SZEMBESZÉLŐK now field the following lineup:

vörösbegy "flusha" Rönnquist
Jesper "JW" Wecksell
Anton “Sapec” Palmgren
Casper “⁠SHiNE⁠” Wennerberg
Peppe "Peppzor" bórax
