3DMAX roster history
The team has existed since 2009, but at one point paused its activity and only returned in 2017. Even with that, a lot of talented esports players have played for 3DMAX’s main roster. The pioneers are worth calling out.
First roster achievements
The first roster included: eksem (Mikail Bill), denwin (Dennis Gustavsson), xynk (Nicolai Caran), DYNAMIC (Kristoffer Johannesson), plyfa (Niklas Runsvik). They didn’t get any massive headline wins, but they did set the tone and grab a few awards: champions at MaxLAN 2011, bronze at Copenhagen Games 2011: Source, and runner-up at Masters Francais du Jeu Video 2011.
