Check-Six With New Euro CS:Source Team
@ Scene news channel

Another large organisation has picked up a big CS:Source team. Today x6 announce their all new Swedish source team.

Comprising of some of the biggest games in the Source scene, this will definitely be a team to look out for. Their roster is as follows :
Fifflaren - Having played for Northern Darkness, adastra, zEx and vG, Fifflaren is considered one of the top players in the game. Having left vG with majk recently, he has proven time and time again that he can compete with the best. He is the team leader for Check Six.
HaZ - Having just left Reason with Ferus due to their all UK roster, HaZ has been competing at the top level of European competition for a while now. Playing in many of the same clans as Fifflaren and Ferus, there should be a lot of chemistry already between them. He will be taking the role of in-game leader, and calling the strats for Check Six.
Majk - The other player to have left vG with Fifflaren, he is an incredibly skilled player, with an impressive résume of clans. Having played for default, adastra zEx and vG, there are no questions about Majk's experience.
Hnt - Haunted is probably the least known player of the new x6 lineup, but he has still played for top class teams such as Adastra. I don't know much about him personally, but I've heard good things from word of mouth.
Ferus - The final addition to the x6 lineup is Ferus. Having played ET at the very top of the game, Ferus switched to CS:Source quite recently, and entered straight at the top tier, playing for Reason Gaming and proving himself to be an incredibly skilled player.

I spoke to Fifflaren about the new team :

IC : Hey Fifflaren. I know most people here should know you by now, but for the few who don't, tell us a little about yourself and the clans you've been in.
Fifflaren : My name is Robin Johansson im 19 years old from Grums, Sweden.I've been playing Counter-Strike:Source for about 1 ½ years now, i played in teams like Northern Darkness, zEx and adastra, got voted to play for GotFrag's World All-Star team and a member of Team Sweden national team.

IC : So you're joining the x6 organisation, must be quite an achievement to join such a renowned team. How did this come about? Who approached who, and how long has it been in the pipeline?
Fifflaren : One of the managers in CheckSix messaged me asking if i wanted to make a CSS team for them to represent CheckSix.Europe, it's been around for a few weeks now and it's all set to be launched.

IC : I notice your squad is all Swedish, is this anything to do with DirecTV and CGS?
Fifflaren : No, i just wanted the same team back who won slks 9 except for nordQvist who we replaced with ferus who is amazing so it's all gooooood.

IC : What LANs are you going to be attending in the next year, and any online leagues?
Fifflaren : We are attending SLKS #11 that i know of right now, and a swedish league called SNL. Otherwise we are just practicing for SLKS.

You can show x6 your support by idling in #check-six on Qnet / Gamesurge, or by visiting their website.

We at Insignia Cadre wish x6 the best of luck in their new organisation.
