Xizt


Richard Landström, better known as Xizt, is a Swedish professional player and captain for Dignitas. Until February 2018, he played for Ninjas in Pyjamas, but stepped down following a stretch of poor results. On March 11th, 2018, he played for Fnatic as in-game leader to replace Golden. As of January 21st, 2020 he has reunited with former teammates and is part of Dignitas's Male Team. Landstöm's biggest result was winning ESL One Cologne 2014, one of Counter Strike's.

Ninjas in Pyjamas

Landström was the primary IGL for Ninjas in Pyjamas from the formation of the roster to him stepping down in February 2018. Even though he normally wasn't the best performing player on the NiP roster, HLTV ranked him among the top 20 players in 2010, 2011 and 2013.

FaZe

In April 2018 Landström joined FaZe Clan as a substitute for Olofmeister due to him taking a short break from competitive Counter Strike. In May 2018 Olofmeister rejoined FaZe Clan and Xizt left.

Fnatic

On March 11th, 2018 Landström was once again picked up by a major e-sports organization, but this time it was Fnatic. Many viewed this as a reunion as he had played with Fnatic before, in 2009-2012. He played with Fnatic until October 21st, 2019 when he was benched by the organization from the active roster.

Team Dignitas

On September 18th, 2019 Team Dignitas announced they would re-enter Male Competitive.
Later on January 21st, 2020 Dignitas confirmed the signing of the former NiP roster of Patrik "F0rest" Lindberg, Christopher "GeT_RiGhT" Alesund, Adam "friberg" Friberg, and Richard "Xizt" Landström while adding rising Norwegian star Håkon "Hallzerk" Fjærli with Robin "Fifflaren" Johansson as a coach/manager.
