After the decision of Gambit to withdraw from the ESL One Cologne Closed Qualifier, Tricked is going to replace the CIS team.
One day after the social media announcement of Gambit’s player Danylo "Zeus" Teslenko, ESL have chosen the Danish team Tricked to be the replacement.
In an official statement on the ESL homepage, Gambit mentioned that they have planned a vacation in May to recover from the number of tournaments they were attending in the last few months.
"We regret to inform that Gambit CS:GO is forced to decline an invitation to ESL One Cologne Closed Qualifier," Gambit said in a statement.
"For as much as we would like to be a part of this event, it is not possible for us to compete in the qualifier.
"Given our intense tournament schedule in April - early May (StarSeries Season 3, cs_summit, DreamHack Austin and DreamHack Tours) we planned a prolonged vacation in May to recharge our batteries and begin an intensive preparation for an upcoming Kraków Major and other tournaments along the way, including DreamHack Summer.
"We would like to issue an apology to fans who expected to see us competing in Cologne and ESL for an opportunity to qualify and being forced to find a last minute replacement for our team."
The Closed Qualifier will run from May 21-22, and Tricked will be meeting K29 or Dignitas in their first match.
