Infinity-eSports Fold

Posted by Dev at 00:45 18/6/2004.

I-eS manager Protex^ has just sent word that the Counter-Strike section of I-eS have folded. Earlier on tonight both PHYRRE & Kixer left the team and were shortly followed by aKujii. With only DArtagnan and Kwak left they have decided to call it a day. The team, which formed around 9 months ago have had highs and lows but member stability seems to have plagued them throughout. Having recently finished 2nd at UKTerrorist LAN 5 and 1st at UKTerrorist LAN 6 respectively things seemed to be on the up. Alas however I-eS, for the time being at least, have no Counter-Strike squad.

**Update** For now I-eS have closed their doors on all fronts and will not be continuing with any games.

08:40 18/6/2004		 Gl in the future all I-eS guys, im vert doubtfull that Dart would wanna go back to 4k after them kicking him, but it would be nice to get them back to being a UK squad...

Maybe this is a chance for WOLF too ditch that per0 name of theres...

Not that i belive thats a good idea they shud make there selfs known and not live in the shadow of a past clan...

But its still a possibility...

anyways back to work! [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

09:58 18/6/2004		 Maybe it'd be cool if all these players currently clanless at this all level all combined to make another high skill team (like WOLF for example)! It'd certainly spread the talent pool at the top and give the UK more CPL-worthy teams perhaps ;] [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

11:17 18/6/2004		 wolf have seemingly already built up a bigger rep than i-eS with their victories over 4k aswell..

becoming i-eS' cs squad would probably bring them more sponsor wise but wouldn't be fantastic for their rep.. some people prefer to make a name for their own team [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

11:50 18/6/2004		 Yeah every Mystic Meg would say that WOLF will become i-eS but i would hope they have the balls to do it on the own, the sponsors will come to them no matter what name they play under, so theres no need for them to give in just cos theres a gap in the 4k wannabe's market...

Not when their team is full of (apart from keiju) players who jump clans more times than paul scholes misses long range shots.

You need stability and an organization behind you to attract proper sponsors (see: 4K intel, TAG AMD) Both teams had been together for a long time with same core players + the organization got the sponsors.

Sponsors wont come to WOLF unless they a) stick together and b) be mature about it [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
