You've been challenged by Petter Northug jr.


Petter Northug jr.  challenging the participants to a 2vs2 Counter-Strike match together with the Swedish Fnatics star player Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg. This will take place at the Amentio stand in cooperation with the games equipment manufacturer SteelSeries.

- I am looking forward to participate at The Gathering,  says Petter Northug jr. to Amentio.

He tells us that he's a little rusty in CS, but back in teh days when he spent a lot of time in front of his computer, Counter-Strike was his favourite game.

Looking forward to meet Northug jr.
Patrik Lindberg is regarded as the best international Counter-Strike player in the world. He enjoys this title.
- I think it's fun to be regarded as good. It is a status I'm proud of, and I will continue to fight to be on top, he explains.
- It's cool to have the opportunity to play with Northug. I am also very pleased to be able to come to Norway and The Gathering. It is actually the first time I visit the country, says Patrik Lindberg.

My competitive nature can save me.
-  My competitive nature is what will possibly save me. I hope, however, that Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg will serve as an aid rider. I've never collaborated with a Swede before, so it is a bit special, Petter Northug jr. explains.

This is not the first time Petter Northug jr. participates at The Gathering. In 2007 he participated in the CS-match for Team Amentio.no
