The french team Against All Authority has announced a return of a Counter-Strike 1.6 team.
It will be a took-over from Esport-Eu. It isn't the first time they chose for a team of Esport-Eu, the first one was in December 2008.
One of the main sponsors of Esport-Eu, ASUS, will also support the new counter-strike team of Against All Authority.
Official Statement of aAa chief Vincent "Coucouoeuf" Bailleul:
"It is with undisguised pleasure that today we welcome the players of Esport-Eu. They are as talented as pleasant to be around, and for the return of a tag which has marked esports in France more than any other, this was the right thing to do.
I thank ASUS for giving us their trust but also all those who have contributed directly or indirectly to this move, the players of course, but also Ricain and Sunscorcher. aAa.cs are indeed back!
aAa, who have won many titles in the past, including a CPL World Tour trophy, had been without a team since shutting down their CS division in January 2009."
