Jørgen "XeqtR" Johannessen, legendary member of teams such as NiP and NoA, is the star of the 251st Episode of 'Reflections'.

XeqtR is one of Counter-Strike's greatest names and had success with numerous teams over the early years of the 2000s. From his time in NiP dominating Europe to battling former team-mates HeatoN and Potti with vesslan in team9/Adrenaline through to his final hurrah winning CPL and WEG with NoA. XeqtR was a notoriously good LAN player, a diligent tactician and a winner at heart.

XeqtR won three majors (CPL Summer 2002, ESWC 2003 and CPL Winter 2004), WEG S1 and a number of European CPLs as well as routinely placing highly at the circuit of tournaments when he did not win.

This interview was recorded on the 17th of December, 2022.
