CS:GO Simon "downie" Storm signs for Torpedo

Torpedo have been drawn into Group B for the ESL Nordic Swedish qualifiers, alongside dreamchasers, pwned and DenDD, with all matches scheduled to be played on Thursday.

With Storm's signing, Torpedo now have:

• William "tease" Sid
• Joachim "darti" Fornstedt
• Simon "atter" Atterstam
• Samuel "decent" Oldenburg
• Simon "downie" Storm
• Johan "face" Klasson (coach)
