NuTorious close ranks with Fruitcupx

NuTorious announced the addition of Gavin "Fruitcupx" Norman, a return to the team for the American rifler after he stood in for NuT at FRAG York earlier in the year.

This is Fruitcupx's fifth team this year, as he's spent time on BOSS, SportsBetExpert, insane players, and Festina Lente.

The American rifler will certainly look for stability with NuTorious after a half-year spent bouncing around multiple teams. Fruitcupx's individual form this year has been fine, but his 1.06 rating in 70 maps will be something he'll be keen to improve on.

As for NuTorious, they completely wiped their roster in May, opting to move ahead with the F5 roster in June.

NuT's most recent outing was at FRAG St. Clair with Danish IGL Mikkel "Maze" Sparvath, where the American team finished fourth after losing to NRG in the semifinal and Villainous in the third-place decider. NuTorious have decided to keep it in the States, not making Maze a permanent member and instead adding Fruitcupx, with Nathaniel "neight" Bell taking over the captaincy.

NuTorious are set to debut in ESEA Advanced S58 next week against playing for fun, featuring Peter "ptr" Gurney and former Liquid coach Eric "adreN" Hoag.

Here are NuTorious look now:

• Andrew "Kermi" Cretella

• Nathaniel "neight" Bell

• Thomas "Bones" Degenhardt

• Cameron "cmrn" Longman

• Gavin "Fruticupx" Norman

• Adam "Kurrent" Starr (Coach)
