I-eS Cut From Eurocup

Posted by Hotshot at 12:27 2/11/2003.

After the recent departure of AnNuM from the I-eS squad, Clanbase Eurocup admins have taken the decision to release the team from further obligations to the tournament. With AnNuM in the team, I-eS had a core 6 man squad one of which was lacking a suitable internet connection. Below is the official word from the Clanbase officials:

After AnNuM left Infinity-eSports they were left with only 5 active members. Unfortunaly one of those, DArtagnan, will not have internet access for at least a while. That has left Infinity-eSports with not enough members to play their last 2 members and causing them to drop from the cup.

With AnNuM leaving and DArtagnan's lack of Internet connection it will be interesting to see how I-eS cope with this recent development.

Couldn't they have recruited someone in quickly to save their slot in the eurocup?

So DArtagnan went a couple of hundred miles to play in an EC cup game, which according to I-eS was, "pointless" - at 'Liquids' house. Surely an Internet cafe would have been closer...

Right, no mercing. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Tbh I think it's a p***take clans don't take the Eurocup seriously, they should do. Sure there's no prize and it's not on LAN, but even so the top games are getting 300+ spectators on HLTV. If I was a sponsor, I'd want any team I was sponsoring to take it seriously.

It's an insult the the clans that would love the chance to play in the EC instead of the OC not to take it seriously, and an insult to people who would like to see their country represented in the competition. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

4k will never be knocked off top spot, even if a new i-es was made with all the top players, they would still lack sponsers commitment and 3 years working together experience, get a grip 4k are #1 till the CS scene dies (or 4k die) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

wcg was a good example of how nobody is gonna beat em :| even with a mix team they strolled it against the so called top uk teams! Be nice to get a few more teams than 4k to foreign lans, but you cant help but think theyd just look foolish, especially with the lack of dedication and practice on most levels :) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
