After the departure of Kévin “madc” Ducourtioux, LDLC.Blue had to find the “fifth element”, and so it’s done ! It’s with a great pleasure that we can officially announce that Younes “Youns” Aït-Lalla is now part of LDLC.Blue. After a few tests, Younes won unanimous support from his team. For the record, Youns evolved in the Platinium team during the ESWC PGW Open 2015.

Younes “Youns” Aït-Lalla reacted on his arrival to Team-LDLC :

Hello everybody ! First I would like to thank Platinium for the short adventure and the good experience at the ESWC. I’m sure that they rapidly bounce back and achieve their goals. So it’s with a great honor that I join LDLC.Blue. This team has proven all the year that they was a strong candidate to the french top 3, and particularly with the victory at the ESWC. To join such a great team with that kind of management was an opportunity I could not decline. I think it’s the team that I need to pass a milestone in my career. I hope I will sustain my momentum of 2015, which was with no doubt at all, my best year so far. Our objective is now to make this ESWC win concrete in the long term and to make ourselves a name on the international scene. I would like to thank Crucial, ASUS, Cooler Master & Intel for their backing, and thanks to Marty, Llo & Geekory fo their presence and support. Finally, thanks to my new teammates for giving me that chance !

This time, Grégory “Geekory” Caboche, Team-LDLC Blue’s manager told us his feelings about this new arrival.

I’m glad to see Younes in this team. After the announce of madc, the team took a few days to think about it, in order to refine the search. Younes was part of those players we wanted to see evolve in our team. His impulsiveness and his motivation are undeniable assets. However, we know that we will have to temper his energy from time to time. With HEdm, XpG & PetitSkel, we already made it with BouLy. So it’s only a matter of time with Younes. So in the name of the team, I would like to welcome YOUYOU inside our team, and to thank the whole staff of Team-LDLC for ther support and trust in us !
