The Lions have been without a squad for around a month due to several internal dissagreements between the organization and the previous team.
Today, the organization has announced the aquisition of Swedish powerhouse H2K.cs. The announcement comes after numerous rumors indicating that the H2K cs team was unhappy with their previous home.
“We’re glad to be able to get back into Counter Strike 1.6 this soon after we’ve parted ways with our Norwegian lineup some weeks ago. Having Counter Strike the past 11 months has been a great lift for Lions, and we were not ready to let that effort go to waste so soon. It will be very interesting to see what we can evolve to in tight cooperation with our new Swedish bred Lions. – Christophe “Monk” Roblin
