![[image loading]](http://www.fnatic.com/filestorage/imagedb/full/6641.jpg) We are proud to announce FnaticMSI.SC2’s latest addition, Silviu ‘NightEnD’ Lazar.
Today the FnaticMSI family grows just a little bit larger as we introduce a new member to our Starcraft 2 team. NightEnD has been in the eSports scene for quite some time now, having played Warcraft III at a professional level competing against the likes of Grubby, ReMinD, Lyn and many others.
Having made a quite successful switch to Starcraft 2, and recently having shown his talents in the TSL 3 tournament run by TeamLiquid.net, NightEnD has made quite a name for himself in the international Starcraft 2 scene.
Current FnaticMSI.SC2 Roster:
Sen
TT1
KawaiiRice
IefNaij
Gretorp
Fenix
NightEnD

Sick pickup. Good luck to NightEnD.
|
Gz to nightend and gz to fnaticmsi.
|
Wow, I feel really bad for Prae now, first thorzain now nightEND
nice pickup by Fnatic tho! gl to everyone
|
Gratz to NightenD and Fnatic! Evil lineup! :O
|
Praetoriana picked clean.
Good pickup for fnatic.
|
Awesome pickup. Hope it works out extremely well for both sides.
Nightend at MLG? That would be awesome.
|
That's the 2nd player Prae has lost. What's going on?
|
Prae falling apart or what? :|
|
Looks like Prae is dead now. Nightend is a good addition even though his biggest flaw is his consistency.
|
0.o prae loses two players over the weekend, best of luck to nightend and thorzain,looks like they're moving on to bigger name teams!
|
Finally i always thought fnaticMsi is shorthanded.
|
poor Prae losing both of their top players
|
wow.. the 2 power players of Prae to 2 different teams O.O
|
Poor Prae Clan :/ Now they lose a strong Protoss Player NightEnD. I dont know how it will go with the clan anymore. But Gratz for fnatic

Legendary pick, Sorry Prae.
|
Fnatic's lineup is insane. I suppose Prae's contract period was coming to an end and holding on to these top players is probably not realistic.

Usually I'm not a fan of players switching teams too often, but it's not really sustainable for a team to be that small and have players who are that high-profile. On TLPD, Prae only had four players to start with, and while Forsen and Rickytan are no pushovers, they're also not enough of a practice team for Thorzain and Nightend to really reach their potential.

|
It looks like Prae just lost their two known players -- rough.
|
|
Would have been suprised:

Well, kinda figured it was coming, grats on the pickup though!
|
:o
Well, having half of your management staff and the best of your players leave was too much for a small team like Praetoriani to compensate.
Best of luck to Rikytan and Forsen, they're not bad players at all, they'll find a home.
I really liked Praetoriani's logo. ;_;
|
Alright... I have looked around several times for where he might be in a tournament... and I really don't want to derail the thread, but this thread is about fnatic so... who the hell is LefNaij? Has he made a single tournament appearance? I haven't heard of him a single time other than that he is in fnatic. He doesn't seem to have his own TLPD (or whatever you call the stats page on TL).
|
Did they break up as a result of Nightend and ThorZain leaving, or did they leave as a result of Prae closing down?
|
Congrats, welcome to FnaticMSI
|
That's really sad they've had to shut down 
But it sounds like it was inevitable. I now can only wish that NightEnd and Thorzain become as successful as fucking possible.
Godspeed, Gentlemen.

He won the first TSL, and is kind of like Mondragon active in SC2, only 1 or 2 Tournament appearances. He won WCG Canada when they had a SC2 tournament last year as an exhibition afaik.
edit: he does have a TLPD profile, I don't know why it doesn't come up though http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/players/1165_IefNaij

What he said ^
Also - he is busy with school, so he doesn't have much time to focus on SC2 sadly.

Unfortunate prae has come to an end. Hopefully the players that left have a successful career
|
I love this banner, it's so original !

I really liked Praetoriani's logo. ;_;
I could never shake seeing a high heal in the logo, but I liked the Prae handle. Prae and Empire are my two favorite handles so far, they roll off the tongue really well and sound pretty badass

good for silviu

Grats nightend, really fantastic protoss player and truly deserves it. Too bad about Prae... but thats business
|
sad that prae is dead, grats to nightend.
|
Good luck to you NightEnd!
|
JF is a beast hope to see him commit more time to sc2 during summer
|
wow really nice pick-up! too bad for prae though - but as others have commentated the prae-clan looked like it had a pretty slim lineup to begin with, with only four players(now 2). well, lets wish them luck aswell the guys who've left prae are superskilled, so, i guess they have the ability to attract good players gl thorzain, nightend AND prae
rickytan, isnt that the badguy from the second rush hour-movie? sorry to derail the thread.
|
abandon ship!!! gl to all their players

Well that's strange that they recruited him for a sc2 team if he doesn't even have time to play the game... but that's obviously their choice.

Big congrats to Nightend and Thorzain for both finding great teams!, Too bad about Praetoriani though. :/
|
so s1ck ! :D
happy for both NigthEnd and fnatic ^_^

Don't worry about it You'll see him soon enough

Looks like Prea Sc2 ceased to exist...
|
I remember the mTw.NightEnD days of WC3 so congrats, Fnatic is pretty beast.
|
Ah the vampire will make a fine addition to FnaticMSI.

Just thinking that.
To be honest, I never really heard any news about Prae though... were they ever going anywhere?
Well done, Fnatic! Congrats to NightEnD as well!

congrats to both the FnaticMSI team and Nightend! great pickup!

LefNaij is our secret weapon

Good pick up. Grats Fnatic & Nightend.
|
Really great choice by NenD on choosing this team.Unfortunately Prae. is dying.
|
This is a really good pick. Good luck Nightend with yournew team
|
Big grats to Nightend, well deserving of a pick-up by a such a strong team.
good luck to him and Fnatic, hoping to see him up the stakes as a player with this amazing support, and the crew to get stronger with this addition.
sad for Prae that they went down, but it was to be expected seeing how well their top 2 players were doing lately and how much they keep growing as competitive players.

It doesn't show up because his nick/name isn't LefNaij.. it's IefNaij (it's a capital I, not an L).. you'd think TT1 would get it right.. (or he's just messing around) :D
..and he was kind of a big deal in SC:BW - would be cool if he ever had the time to play again!
|
|
Nice addition! Good to see that FnaticMSI is trying to be an international team...
|
Wow Prae is dead, this is terrible... But I'm happy for NightEnD.
|
Poor Prae Gl to all players and teams
|
Wow Fnatic and EG pretty much have the same sponsors. How does that work out?

Also, Congrats to Fnatic!

Gratz Nightend. ps: I play vs Paisy. He 4wgp me
|
|
|
sad that prae disbanded, but congratz to nightend! hope there were no hard feelings
|
Hope nightend gets as good as he was at wc3!!! Use to enjoy watching him play. Di player night elf after all
|
Congratulations to both! Looking forward to see what he can do for his new team.
|
|
Sick pick up, really good for both parties I think. NightEnD is sick good, probably 2nd best on the team after Sen.
|
i just noticed this, but it's a rather strange pickup since all the other guys play on NA, and Sen on NA + KR.
|
I want to express my appreciation to NightEnD wich is a great player - the best protoss I know . Her deserves his place in FNATIC team.
