TSM puts acoR up for transfer due to "budget reasons"

North American esports club TSM has benched and put 27-year-old Frederik "acoR" Gyldstrand up for transfer. The Dane himself announced this via his X social media account. According to him, this decision was made due to financial reasons.

Just received news that TSM has decided to bench me, due to budget reasons.

We didn't get the players that were planned when I joined the team which did make the start feel weird. We had a decent period in the start, we managed to make the RMR with no time to practice. After the benching of Altekz it took a long time to get back on track with sirah. Though it did feel like we were getting back on track in the end, but it is what it is.

I am looking for a new team. I know my strengths and experience as a player will be a great addition to any team looking for a new AWPer.

Gyldstrand has been competing for TSM since July of this year, while before that he represented GamerLegion, MOUZ, MAD Lions and other teams. Over the course of his career as a Counter-Strike pro, he has earned $329,000 in prize money. The Dane's average rating over the past three months is 1.07 (in 61 maps).

Note that in September of this year, Alexander "Altekz" Givskov departed TSM. The vacant position in the roster was taken by William "sirah" Kjærsgaard, who previously competed for the youth squad of MOUZ.

TSM placed 12th-14th in the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 Europe RMR and did not qualify for the Shanghai Major. The roster currently occupies 57th place in HLTV world ranking. The organization recently disbanded its female CS2 roster.

 TSM are now:

 Valdemar "valde" Bjørn Vangså
 Rasmus "Zyphon" Nordfoss
 Nikolaj "niko" Kristensen
 William "sirah" Kjærsgaard

 Allan "Rejin" Petersen (coach)
