Det här är inte första gången som norrmannen bsl flyttar till någon avlägsen ort för att spela Counter-strike. Tidigare var det Made in Brazil (mibr) som var målet för hans vallfärd. Den gången gick det faktiskt riktigt bra och mibr är numera ett erkänt världslag. De gav till exempel 3D en tuff match på WCG förra veckan.
Förändringen lämnar SoA med en del problem och bsl säger att det var ett svårt beslut för honom att ta. Så här skriver han själv:

Gamers-X la ner för snart två månader sedan (nyhet) så vad vi talar om här är ett nytt lag. Hur laguppställningen ser ut ville inte bsl svara på, men det finns ganska rejält med klanlösa toppspelare i USA just nu, så det kan bli ett riktigt hett lag som vi kanske kan räkna med även internationellt.
It is with a heavy heart that I today have to announce my resignation as Spirit of Amiga's captain. The choice to leave the team wasn't an easy one and it was in many ways the most difficult decision so far in my gaming career. Spirit of Amiga put a lot of faith in me, and I was very greatfull for the confidence they showed me when I joined, and also when we started to rebuild the team after Kram and torM decided to leave.
However I have to leave the team today and I will try to give my reasons. This has nothing to do with the usual problems with players from different countries. The SoA players and the staff are great people and the language barrier hasn't been an issue at all.
The players that were supposed to be in the starting 5(the official one's anyway), Muggz and Stan, are among the finest I have ever worked with. Their skill and knowledge of this game will take them far. The staff of SoA are also the most "no-nonsense-straight-forward" people I've met as orgas, and the things they are doing for SoA and danish esport is no less than extraordinary.
I'm leaving the team as of today because on wedensday of this week I am packing my bags and moving to Los Angeles, California. Home of baywatch, and most recently, Arnold. I will be playing for the American team Gamers X. It was a hard choice to make, but the chance to fully be a proffesional gamer again, like I was in Rio de Janeiro with Mibr this summer, made the difference.
Unfortunatly I am aware that me leaving the team on such short notice leaves things extremely difficult for the team. The players that are left are top notch so I'm certain that they will attract the names to play with them
and for the great organisation of SoA. I still owe everybody involved a big apology, and I can only hope that they will respect me someday for taking this great big opportunity...
