"We feel like this is the right move for us to evolve as Hearthstone players, both individually and as a team. We look forward to compete under SK Gaming's banner. Our first LAN event where we will represent SK will be on Thursday (Birdie-Lan, Uppsala, Sweden) and you will see us at more events in the future!"

It's been a few months since we last added a new player to our Hearthstone roster, but that doesn't mean we haven't been looking at potential young talent in the ever expanding Hearthstone scene. As it turns out this time we found not only one but a core group of four Swedish players who are hungry for success and looking forward to representing our colours in tournaments across the world.We are happy to announce the signing of former DarkStar players Jesper 'Freakeh' Ericsson, Sebastian 'Spo' Sjöbäck, Anton 'Airbrushed' Bystedt and Martin 'MartinCreek' Bäcklund. You may know Freakeh from his runs in the last two Seatstory Cups, as well as the recent Blackrock Team Brawl where he got second place alongside Team Archon's Orange. The others also have a list of notable achievements in various online competitions and the Swedish Championship 'E-Sport SM' and are more than eager to also find their breakthrough in offline tournaments.All four of our new singings will have their first tournament as part of SK Gaming in only a few days as they will be attending the second biggest Swedish LAN, Birdie, starting this Thursday, 14th of May. While the event only has a prize pool of €600, the winner will earn the single Swedish spot for the IeSF Championship so make sure to tune in to TwitchTV and follow the fierce competition.The Swedish quartet had the following to say about joining SK:Filip '' SamuelsenJungHwan '' LeeEsteban '' SerranoJesper '' EricssonSebastian '' SjöbäckAnton '' BystedtMartin '' BäcklundPlease give a warm welcome to Jesper, Sebastian, Anton and Martin and make sure to follow them on social media as well as to keep an eye out here on sk-gaming.com for more scene news and coverage going forward.
