Johnny Speeds
On Tuesday, February 4, Johnny Speeds have announced their launch as an esports organisation with the help of a group of investors. The announcement came a year after the team came together as an independent Counter-Strike project.
At the time, Johnny Speeds fielded Olle “spooke" Grundström, Hugo “Chawzyyy” Günther, Jonas “Lekr0” Olofsson, William "draken" Sundin, and Kalle "Ro1f" Johansson, although just the latter two have stuck with the team up to now.
Since their inception, Johnny Speeds have managed to make a name for themselves by winning several smaller tournaments in lower division of European competitive Counter-Strike scene.
The list of titles includes two local tournaments, Svenska Elitserien Spring 2024 and Fall 2024, and more recently, Subway Suberior League Season 3, which the Swedish side on in January.
In the announcement, Johnny Speeds also revealed their Counter-Strike division will consist of draken, Ro1f, Casper "SHiNE" Wennerberg and Anton “Sapec” Palmgren. This leaves Johnny Speeds one man short of completing their division.
The announcement made no mention of Liam “MaiL09” Tügel, who recently played for Johnny Speeds at Subway Superior League Winter 2025, suggesting that the 15-year-old is no in the Swedish side’s plans.
"Johnny Speeds has been a project close to my heart over the past year," said draken.
Most people know what we managed to achieve last year without any external support. Along the way, there were several offers for all the players, but in the end, we always wanted to carve our own legacy in esports.
I believe in Swedish esports, and last year we showed what we’re capable of. Now, we’ve found a group of investors who share our vision and will help us take Johnny Speeds to the next level.
With the help of investors, Johnny Speeds now have the financial backing that should help the Swedish outfit reach for new heights and surpass their peak ranking of no.40 on in the HLTV rankings.
However, before draken and co, can start their campaign under an official banner, they need to finalise their roster with a fifth player.
