Former MYM player Andreas "moddii" Fridh has now joined up Playzone.se to provide extra cover during their EPS campaign.

                           

He joins the squad days after his former team Confis.SharkGaming collapsed due to Frej "kHRYSTAL" Sjöström departing to MYM.
Last night the player appeared in the team's main ESL page, however he only occupies the possition of the sixth man. He will replace  Hugo 'Huggan' Lopez as he cannot participate in the ESL Nordic games at the upcomming month. Who knows , MODDII might fill up for Huggan permanently , its all a matter of time.


Playzone.se now is

Hey guys, I'd like to introduce the very first of a Canadian Gather Network channel. It's been a long few weeks but there has been great progress to say the least. I hope in opening this channel we will build a fun and unique community. We have been setup with a 12 man 1000 fps Chicago server from Limitless Servers. Although we are a Canadian channel, we decided Chicago would be the best location to choose and I think this choice will open our community to those more south. I've told you what server we have, but what will make our channel unique?

We've decided that giving back to the community, without taking, would be an interesting way of handling our relationship with you. This is why we will be hosting cash prize(s) per week or two weeks for the top players (top played gathers). We will provide more information on our website (http://csgatherca.com) with rules and qualifications. Our prize(s) will be awarded at the end of next week (1st of May), and we'll be taking the addition of this week and next weeks top player(s) to decide who will be awarded the cash prize(s).

You will soon find more information regarding our prizes at http://csgatherca.com

Truly a long time waited ENC 2010 Round 4 finally is here.



                                      



The six nations that will qualify during this qualifier will join up the other six teams who have already made their way up to the play-offs in last round.

Portugal once again got very unlucky in the draw in which they got one of the favorites  Russia. Most of us is probably waiting for the clash between the two big names which are  Ukraine and  Finland.

Spain > United Kingdom

Portugal < Russia

STAY TUNED FOR NEXT ROUND WHICH IS NOT FAR AWAY ! :)

compLexity once again shows they are the best in USA by taking the CEVO-Professional XII trophy just like they did last year.

                               
In today's early morning the CEVO Season 12 finaly came to a close. As expected in the final we saw the two top ranked teams which were  Evil Geniuses and  compLexity. Already since the start of the whole event both teams were the favorites of the competition , same as last year both teams reached their way up to the final. Col , moved past EG very easily in a 2:0 victory , in the first map which was inferno, coL managed to win with a score of 16:5 , it seemed that EG only had some bad luck at the start and will surely bounce back at de_nuke , but the score was more shocking then it was on the previous map , the map ended up as 16:3 to coL.
