** UPDATED: Added Fragmasters**
Meanwhile, in actual news. Here’s the latest stuff nobody cba to write about.
Power Gaming
Swapping medics, as Kyynel is out and DaJackal is in (leaving Refuse).
Regrettably, year 2011 marks the end of the TF2 career of Power Gaming’s trusted Medic, kyynel. He has decided to quit the game after Winter Assembly. Luckily we didn’t have to look too far for a replacement. Joining the team is Jari “dajackal” Litukka, who has previously played in other top Finnish teams such as Refuse and Imperial.
kyynel was part of the team since the very beginning, joining the team back in summer 2008, when our TF2 line-up still called themselves Interrobang. He has been an integral part of the team, both as the important support class player as well as the in-game leader after my own retirement last year. I would like to give my warm thanks to kyynel for the dedication he showed during these years. You will be missed!

Fromandskorpset
Another high end medic in the wind, F2 joined the ETF2L roster of a new Danish team. This could be a clear sign about Epsilon’s attendance for ETF2L’s season 9. (But, could also be just a piece of funny.)
Several of the roster (including F2) have participated in former iterations of Clones inc, most known for their rapid d5 to d2 ascent , back in season 2. The name is taken from the danish special forces, Frogman corps.
