Could this be Rogue's next Danish star?

Report: Rogue to trial TENZKI

According to Dust2.dk, TENZKI is set to replace Rickeh over the month of December.

According to a report on sister site Dust2.dk (in Danish), Rogue are set to bring Jesper "TENZKI" Plougmann onto the roster on a trial basis. The Dane is set to replace Ricardo "Rickeh" Mulholland over this period, with the Australian currently in his home country in order to renew his visa meaning he will be unable to take part in the team's upcoming ESL Pro League relegation matches. It is still to be confirmed if this move could potentially be a permanent fixture.

TENZKI announced on Twitter that he was set to take a 12 hour flight, which Dust2.dk reports would be the journey that'd take him to the United States to link up with Rogue for his trial. TENZKI has been with ALTERNATE aTTaX since September of this year, joining after his spell on The Imperial ended two months prior. VPEsports reported on November 12th that ALTERNATE aTTaX were expected to disband at the end of ESEA MDL Season 29, which would open up a move for TENZKI to head abroad.

This would be a return to the Rogue organization for TENZKI, who had previously competed with them as part of the short-lived Unity roster, alongside Casper "cadiaN" Møller and Mathieu "Maniac" Quiquerez. TENZKI had previously played alongside Mathias "MSL" Lauridsen, albeit back in 2014 on a roster that stretched between Reason, unu.AiN and myXMG.

Rogue haven't been hot performers in this season of the ESL Pro League, finishing in 10th with a 7-15 record, meaning they'd be headed to the relegation playoffs. Their showing in in ECS was slightly better viewing, finishing in 7th with a 9-9 record, meaning they'd secure a spot in the league for next season. Their only LAN performance this side of the Major, and after adding MSL as IGL, was DreamHack Open Atlanta, where they finished 5th-6th after a win against Fragsters, and losses to Ghost and Vitality.

This move would mean Rogue's roster for the month of December would be as follows:

  • United States Daniel "vice" Kim
  • United States Spencer "Hiko" Martin
  • United States Hunter "SicK" Mims
  • Denmark Mathias "MSL" Lauridsen
  • Denmark Jesper "TENZKI" Plougmann (Trial)
  • Australia Ricardo "Rickeh" Mulholland (Inactive)

Rogue would still need to receive clearance from WESA to secure an emergency transfer to use TENZKI in the team's upcoming ESL Pro Relegation matches, to take place between December 5-6th, else they'll have to utilize the services of Michael "Uber" Stapells for those games.
