Copenhagen Wolves have announced that they have made another foray into competitive Counter-Strike by signing a new Nordic team.

CPH Wolves had been actively searching for a new team to support since the disbandment of their Danish roster, which would go on to form the basis of SK Gaming's division.

Instead of taking a step into the unknown, CPH Wolves signed three players from LGB, Ruben "RUBINO" Villarroel, Joakim "jkaem" Myrbostad and Morten "zEVES" Vollan. The transfer process was facilitated by the fact that both organisations are owned by the same company, Diglife.

Rounding out the roster are two Swedish players, Erik "zende" Sundeqvist and Simon "twist" Eliasson, both of whom were on the market after parting ways with Property at the weekend.

"We are extremely excited to once again return to the roots of the Copenhagen Wolves, as we venture back into Counter-Strike: Global Offensive," CPH Wolves CEO Jakob Lund Kristensen said in a statement.

"Since our last tenure, the game has seen an immense growth and we feel it is a natural and needed step for our company.

"Though our emphasis and priorities have always been on the development of Danish talents, we feel that this particular lineup is simply too talented, too hungry and too skilled to not become a part of our wolfpack.

"They share both the dedication and determination that we have been looking for and we have honoured this with a longterm deal that will provide them with the best possible circumstances to live up to their lofty potential."

The Norwegian team will make their first appearance for CPH Wolves tonight, at 21:00, in the closed qualifier for DreamHack Open London. They are also due to compete in CEVO Professional, in which they will face off against teams like Kinguin, mousesports and Titan.

CPH Wolves' CS:GO division consists of:

Ruben "RUBINO" Villarroel
Joakim "jkaem" Myrbostad
Morten "zEVES" Vollan
Erik "zende" Sundeqvist
Simon "twist" Eliasson
