k1ck have asked Fisshu to temporarily fill in as Scout to play in the upcoming AFS season over at ETF2L.
The news comes after Rake was dropped from the k1ck roster as the team felt there was a lack of chemistry between themselves and Rake. However, it seems both parties are still on good terms. Fisshu has been playing with the team quite regularly recently and with Fakkel Brigades' decision to go inactive during the summer weeks, Fisshu has accepted an invitation to play for k1ck throughout AFS. This will be the team's debut in Division One in ETF2L and Fisshu has stated that the team may be able to pull off an upset.
Fisshu was quoted saying on vanillatf2.org
After a brief discussion with with my FB team mates a couple of weeks ago, it was decided that we would be taking a break for the summer. The recent departure of Rake has left stoic/k1ck without a scout team, so I've willingly accepted an invitation to play with them in the AFS Season. We've already played a few matches together and it's gone well; the team work is solid and the individual skill is high, it does need a little bit of work though. I'm good friends with a number of people in relation to k1ck, so it really wasn't a difficult decision to make.
Realistically, I think the team has the potential of causing a number of upsets and finishing top 5. It is k1cks debut in division one, a lot of it is going to come down to how the players can hold themselves during official games, we need to take a 0% respect approach to the higher tier teams and, most importantly, enjoy ourselves.
The team will actively be seeking a replacement for Fisshu throughout summer as Fisshu plans to go back to Fakkel Brigade when activity picks back up after summer. It is also likely that if a suitable replacement is found mid season, Fisshu will step down.
k1ck's ETF2L roster includes:
Stephen "DAF" Stenson
Roy "Royze" Adler
Michael"Crink" Carruthers
Jacob"Superfly" Madsen
Matt "Vali" Lush
Joseph "Fisshu" Carter
