f0rest set to stand-in for KRIMZ at IEM Dallas 2023

fnatic have announced that due to personal reasons Freddy 'KRIMZ' Johansson will not be able to attend the upcoming IEM Dallas 2023.

KRIMZ will be replaced by former fnatic player Patrik 'f0rest' Lindberg. f0rest stood in for fnatic last year as well at the Pinnacle Cup Championship in Sweden. The former Ninjas in Pyjamas legend already has a rich history with fnatic in Counter-Strike 1.6, having represented the team between 2006 - 2010.

f0rest has been without a team since August 2022, when he became a free agent after Dignitas released him.

fnatic have announced that KRIMZ will return to the server soon, although there is no set timeline provided yet.

With f0rest joining fnatic for IEM Dallas, the team's lineup at the event will be:

  • mezii

  • roeJ

  • nicoodoz

  • FASHR

  • f0rest

Glad to see him back but I wonder how teams would play Dallas. What I mean is considering Blast was the last major I want to see what the mindset of teams would be.

I think most teams have turned their focus to cs2 post Major, there are a few tournaments here and there but main focus is cs2.

Agreed. I hope they release CS2 soon but also considering the gap between the next important events, it seems we can get the update between the blast spring group finals and blast fall groups. There is a one month gap and I feel confident in that period.
