Sweden will have 7 representatives at ESL Katowice. Sweden will be the 3rd most represented country at ESL, only surpassed by France and the US.
The Swedish players have accumulated prize earnings on 231,522.00 $, coming mainly from Epic Games hosted events.
We will take a closer look at the players from Sweden below.
Beehive is the Swedish player with most winnings coming in with 83,125.00$. He has previously played both solo and duos in Skirmish, but his biggest results have come as a Solo player coming in 4th at the Summer Skirmish week 4 and came 7th in the qualifying stage of Winter Royal. However, Beehive has also shown himself in duos, placing 5th with Bowman in Fall Skirmish. Beehive will be playing alongside the more unknown Sweedish player Coffeh. This will be Coffeh’s first ever Fortnite sponsored event, which means he has no prior experience in terms of big tournaments. However, we know Coffeh, as a good player which can pop off. The Duo could achieve their goal about top 20 in duos. But look out for Beehive in the solos tournament, as he can pop off at any time!
The next Swedish duo will be the Na’Vi duo, with AlphaAmons and Bowman. These two have been playing alongside each other for a very long time, besides this, they have been friends for an even longer time. They have been a dedicated duo for some time and having total combined prize earnings on 88,750.00 $, they have been playing skirmish with each other before, which could come into be a huge advantage as they have played in the environment before. We expect them to be at least top 20 at this tournament.
There are no more Swedish duos at the ESL, however, some Swedish players have duo partners not being from Sweden, these are Khuna, Crippa, Zyppan.
Zyppan will be playing alongside Bloodx, Zyppan has a 7th place as his best position. The 7th place came through solos Fall Skirmish week 4. Zyppan has total earnings of 48,925.00 $. Zyppan has been a free agent for a while now, and this could be a way to show his skills off. However, we do not believe that Bloodx and Zyppan, will be among the top duos, even though they are both great players. Other players just have more experience playing as a duo. However, we expect both to do well in the solo tournament. But if Bloodx manages to strategies as we have seen him do before, they could potentially get into the money.
Crippa will be playing alongside Boyer, Crippa does no have any big accomplishment so far, however, he placed well in Winter Royal Finals. But this could also just come from the lack of tournaments he has played in. We believe that this duo, could go to ESL and potentially win the entire thing. The duo has amazing teamwork, and are always being considered to be some of the top players. We expect the duo to go into top 5 at least, and compete for the trophy.
The last Swedish player will be Khuna, he will be playing alongside Mitr0. This duo will be deadly at ESL, even though Khuna does not have any big accomplishment, he is playing alongside Mitr0 who successfully managed to carry SluggEU at a Skirmish to a win. But we can assure you that Khuna will be able to do more than Slugg, Khuna is an amazing player with great skill, and he is not playing alongside Mitr0, because of his pretty face. Khuna and Mitr0 will do damage at ESL, they will also be one of the teams with most fans supporting them, and cheering on them to win. We expect them to go top 5.
We wish all the Swedish players best of luck at the event!
