Stewie2K The Next Target Of SK Gaming Trio

Cloud9’s Jacky “Stewie2K” Yip seems to be the next target of the SK Gaming trio. They are already in talks with the player as we write this news. The CS:GO roster for SK Gaming is currently looking for new blood for their roster that can bring something new to the table.

This search culminated on the discussion of a possible merger between the SK trio and Na`Vi’s S1mple and Flamie. However, the report soon went in vain as Na`Vi’s manager himself tweeted that this move wasn’t happening.

But this development didn’t stop Gabriel “FalleN” Toledo and Co. from looking at potential players as we stumble over the news of Stewie2k being next on the list. According to reports from Flickshot.fr, the talks for Stewie2k’s acquisition have already been initiated. The deal is in its closing stages.

However, unlike the previous report, this time around, only Epitacio “TACO” de Melo would be going out of the active roster to make way for Stewie2k while Ricardo “boltz” Prass is most likely to stay in the team.

The move of Jacky “Stewie2K” Yip seems quite possible considering he is also an American and won’t have a problem moving within the states. Plus the language won’t be an issue as well since the Brazilians are pretty fluent with English as well.

If this acquisition deal gets finalized, SK Gaming will have even more firepower in their roster considering Stewie2k as one of the top fraggers for Cloud9, where he led them to an ELEAGUE Major victory on the back of a 1.19 rating and 42 opening kills in the tournament.
