He closes by stating he is open to team offers, and will put in more team into the game to improve his game, as an underwhelming stint with North comes to an end. Shortly after cadiaN\u2019s post, it was announced that fellow Dane JUGi would take his spot on the lineup, leaving OpTic Gaming after over a year. It\u2019s yet another AWP change for North, after cadiaN replaced Mathias \u2018MSL\u2019 Lauridsen on the lineup in September 2018. The move also sees Valdemar \u2018valde\u2019 Bj\u00f8rn Vangs\u00e5 move to the in-game leader role for North, a duty previously performed by cadiaN. &#8220;&#8221;I feel that the time has come for me to take on extra responsibilities within the team.&#8221;&#8221; Today we promote @Officialvalde as team captain and welcome @JUGiOfficial as new AWP&#8217;er. This also means that we bid farewell to @caspercadiaN.#HearTheRoar pic.twitter.com\/q7bSWJVDTQ \u2014 North (@TheNorthIsHere) May 2, 2019 CadiaN wrote in his post that is had \u201cbeen a learning full experience to play for North\u201d but that \u201c[T]here were many things hindering us in reaching the goals we were aiming at.\u201d Valde, now taking the position of in-game leader, shared his thoughts on the move in a YouTube video, explaining how he believes his leadership could be what the team needs. Team coach, Torbj\u00f8rn \u201cmithR\u201d Nyborg, said that Valde is \u201cnatural born leader\u201d, which is why the team \u201clooked inwards in order to rethink our approach to the game.\u201d MithR also highlighted JUGi\u2019s previous experience teaming with Valde with Heroic, which should allow him to transition into the team more smoothly. Next up for North will be the closed qualifier for ESL One Cologne , where JUGi could face off against his old organization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpTic Gaming CS:GO star replaces cadiaN on North following another IGL change StarLadderDanish CS:GO pro Casper \u2018cadiaN\u2019 M\u00f8ller has announced his exit from North, after seven months with the team, and is replaced by former OpTic player Jakob \u2018JUGi\u2019 Hansen. cadiaN made the announcement in a TwitLonger on May 2, stating that although his time [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-38772","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38772","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38772"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38772\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38772"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=38772"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=38772"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
