Apeks looking to build a Scandinavian roster
The Norwegian organization will try to build and develop a Scandinavian team heading into 2021.
In the announcement video that explains jkaem’s departure, Apeks’ leadership admitted that the loss of the 26-year-old throws a wrench in their plans to build a top Norwegian roster and shared that the organization needs to shift its approach and look for talented players in other Scandinavian countries.
“A lot of money has been spent on getting Joakim home, with a common understanding that time would be spent on building a Norwegian top roster, but these thoughts seem to have evaporated. We are changing our plans but not the goal, it will just take a little longer.” A statement from the organization reads.
In the event of jkaem leaving the team, the Norwegian side will find themselves down to just three players after they also benched Martin “Nasty” Garvik earlier this month, with their lineup looking as follows:
Sander “Grusarn” Iversen
Ole “Marcelious” Kristian Langan
Dennis “dennis” Edman
Pål “Polly” Kammen (coach)
Martin “Nasty” Garvik (benched)
Kristian “akez” Kornbakk (benched)
Erik “truth” Hansen Dyrnes (benched)
