North replaces Magisk after one year of service

North Moves Emil “Magisk” Reif to Inactive Roster

North, a Danish team backed by F.C. Copenhagen, has decided to move player Emil “Magisk” Reif to the inactive roster today.

Latest Development After PGL Major

Following their top eight finish at the PGL Major in Krakow, Poland, where they secured Legend status, North has made this decision over a week later. The team had a strong group stage, finishing at 3-1, but unfortunately fell to Virtus Pro in the quarterfinals, led by Mathias “MSL” Lauridsen.

Concerns Surrounding Magisk’s Bench Placement

Magisk has been a key player for North, often topping the scoreboard with crucial play-making, but his performance has declined recently. Fans are questioning why he has been benched despite his previous success. It’s possible that internal issues within the team may have influenced this decision, according to HTLV.

Magisk Optimistic About the Future

Despite the disappointment of leaving North, Magisk remains optimistic about his future as a player. He expressed this sentiment on Instagram, stating that he is looking for new opportunities.

“I’m looking for new opportunities where I can continue my journey as a player,” Magisk said on Twitter. The organization has not yet made a statement regarding his benching from the active roster.

Possible Replacements for Magisk

Rumors suggest that North may choose either Valdemar “valde” Bjørn Vangså or Daniel “mertz” Mertz to fill Magisk’s vacant spot on the roster. Valde was previously part of the rising Danish team, Heroic, but his contract with RFRSH, the organization that owns multiple teams including Heroic, ended in mid-July.

Goodbye to Magisk

Magisk will be leaving behind teammates Mathias “MSL” Lauridsen, René “cajunb” Borg, Kristian “k0nfig” Wienecke, and Philip “aizy” Aistrup on North. We wish him the best of luck in finding a new home in Counter-Strike soon.
