The post CSGO: Kjaerbye parts way with Endpoint appeared first on Esport Bet.
]]>The report comes after the Danish player��s return to the professional scene four months ago, when he joined Endpoint.
Kjaerbye announced his retirement from CS:GO in June 2021, citing a lack of desire and motivation to continue playing the game at a professional level. He came back in June 2022 to play for Endpoint, and he claimed in a statement made earlier this year that he was considerably better both mentally and physically.
Endpoint’s official statement about the player’s departure says that the former Astralis rifler has some problems in his personal life that he needs to take care of right away.
“It was great to have Marcus at Endpoint and we fully appreciate the professional experience and attitude he brought to the team,” the team said.
Kjaerbye also spoke on his departure, and expressed his gratitude to the team for giving him a platform and supporting him in his career path.
“I am very grateful that Endpoint gave me the chance to come back to the thing I love most: play pro CS,” Kjaerbye said.
“The way Endpoint, my teammates, and my coach Rejin welcomed me and supported me in my comeback has meant the world to me. I am sad it has to end now, but sometimes life takes unexpected turns and you simply have to follow that.”
Endpoint also noted that Kjaerbye was a key figure in their victory over Natus Vincere during the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 16 in September and also in the Polska Liga Esportowa Superpuchar 2022.
“Despite the fact that we were together for a short time, we achieved a lot together, in particular, qualification for ESL Pro League Season 16 and an unforgettable victory over Natus Vincere,” Endpoint��s official statement read.
After the UK esports team’s attempt to qualify for the IEM Road to Rio 2022 European RMR was unsuccessful, Kjaerbye was suddenly no longer visible on the radar. At this point in time, Nikita “HeavyGod” Martynenko assumed his position within the team, which most likely functioned as a trial run for a future shift.
As a result of Kjaerbye’s departure, the remaining members of the Endpoint roster are Kia “Surreal” Man, Max “MiGHTYMAX” Heath, Guy “Nertz” Iluz, and Polish player Milosz “mhL” Knasiak.
The majority of his journey has been spent playing for Danish teams, including Astralis and North. He has also played for teams such as FaZe Clan, HYENAS, and Team Dignitas, among others.
It is not certain if Kjaerbye will return to competitive matches once he has dealt with his personal issues, or whether he will simply retire once again.
At the moment, Endpoint are getting ready for ESL Challenger League Season 43 Europe while also continuing to compete in the ESL Premiership Autumn 2022.

The 24 year old is yet to feature in an international roster since his time with FaZe Clan. Overwhelmed and in need of clarity, Kjaerbye left the competitive Counter-Strike: Global Offensive scene stating motivational issues as his reason. He will be joining the Endpoint team which consists of Max ��MiGHTYMAX�� Heath, Joey ��CRUC1AL�� Steusel, Kia ��Surreal�� Man, and Guy ��Nertz�� Iluz.
In 2017, Kjaerbye became the youngest player in the history of the game to win a Major MVP at age 18. He won this feat with Astralis and left the team to join North, where he struggled to find success.
Talking about the signing, the franchise shared its delight in announcing the return of the rifler. Endpoint revealed in its press release that it took the organization about two months of talks with various organizations before arriving at this decision.
��After almost two months of intense talks with various organizations, we are delighted to announce that Markus “Kjaerbye” Kjaerbye has chosen Endpoint as his new home,” it read.
��Kjaerbye needs no introduction to CS:GO fans. The youngest MVP ever at a Major Championship in 2017, his career includes stints at Dignitas, Astralis, North, and FaZe Clan, with victories at ELEAGUE Atlanta Major 2017, Dreamhack Masters Stockholm, and IEM New York Europe 2020.��
Kjaerbye reacted to returning to Endpoint, tagging it as ��the ideal place to pick up his rifle again.�� He shared his excitement and looked forward to impacting the team.
��I��m delighted to say I have found the ideal place to pick up my rifle again with Endpoint,�� Kjaerbye said.
��The people behind Endpoint, and the culture they have created, have again and again shown they have the structures to allow players to maximise their potential, which is exactly what I��m looking for.��
The Chief Executive Officer of Endpoint, Adam Jessop spoke about what it means to the franchise to have Kjaerbye back in the fold. He complimented the 24-year old for the talent and experience he offers. He stated that both parties’ objectives aligned and that led to the decision of acquiring the Danish rifler.
��It��s a truly exciting prospect to be able to bring Markus into the Endpoint CS team,” Jessop said.
“There is no denying the caliber of talent and experience he will bring to the lineup. After having a number of conversations with him, I fully believe that he is as passionate and focused as ever, ready to continue his CS career again, and that we can help him along that journey.
“His renewed focus on physical and mental wellbeing resonates with our own objectives and was a key factor in the decision for both parties.”

A disastrous performance across the board for North American teams at the 2020 League of Legends World Championship has drawn both ridicule and criticism. With not a single NA team making the playoffs, the effectiveness of esports development strategies in the region has been called into question.
TeamSoloMid��s coach, Parth “Parth” Naidu, spoke up after his team��s crushing 0-6 run at the tournament. ��I think one of the things that the NA region has constantly done is rely too much on their veterans and their leadership to carry them through their games,�� he said in an exclusive interview with ONE Esports.
The coach added that ��North America has to level up�� when it comes to developing rookie talent. According to Parth, it��s the only way the region can remain competitive going forward.

AEC Organizers Listens To Players
After the Africa Esports Championship organization announced the game selection for the upcoming national league tournaments, many players were upset. The tournament was slated to include FIFA 20 and Street Fighter V, two choices that didn��t go over well with players.
Many fans spoke out, demanding that the newer FIFA 21 replace its older iteration in the roster. An equally loud contingent complained about Street Fighter V, a less popular title than fan-favorite Tekken 7. The AEC was listening, though.
As a result of the online feedback, the organizers have announced two modifications to the roster, conceding to both demands. This move speaks positively of the AEC and its willingness to work with its audience. It��s also expected to help increase esports betting interest online.
