Xero Skill after increasing their roster some time ago wanted to give themselves a moment to get the chemistry with the additions up. Seems like it worked out nicely, as XsK is recently performing very good!
After embodying the additions, former SK-Gaming Swede ZeBob and Team Canada Leader mO-, they seem to have a strong team spirit and coordination. Hence further reinforcements of another former SK-Gaming player, Edvin 'KwoM' Börjesson, also Swede. Moreover, Argentinian Alex 'Metro' Katz joined XsK as their new manager.
KwoM was fast incorporated, and in the last game, third place tie breaker in ESL I against eMazing, he was fielded in starting five. eMg recently might lost some players, but they are still a force to be treated with highest respect. Pulling a straight 2-0 win, Team XsK proved to be in good shape and KwoM to be a good addition. You can find replays with ban/pick order in our database, Game 1 here and Game 2 here.
With such a huge roster XsK can participate in vast majority of events that are going on at the moment, and with their current high form we can expect them to lay a lot of good DotA. Although one thing is still uncertain - ESWC requires at least three players from same country for national qualifiers, XsK can field two at most, and international qualifiers are at the moment uncertain. Time will tell, let's hope we will see them participating in the offline finals!
