Volcano Joins Team3D

Posted by Myers at 08:15 8/8/2004.

Former zEx and TSG member Volcano has joined up with Team3D to practice for the upcoming World Cyber Games. Volcano is an extremely experienced player having achieved a top 5 placing at ESWC for the previous two years, in 03' with zEx at 2nd place and 04' at 4th with TSG.

The irony here is last year Team3D, unable to compete with their normal lineup due to Steel being Canadian, recruited Volcano's zEx teammate boms to play for them at WCG. Boms has become a permanent member of the team, will the same happen to Volcano?

Mr.Team3D himself, Craig Levine, has issued a brief statement on the Team3D website.

I am pleased to introduce Sal “Volcano” Garozzo as the newest member of Team 3D’s Counter-Strike division and the final piece of our WCG USA lineup. Sal was a member of the zEx team that finished second at ESWC 2003 and more recently of TSG, who finished fourth at ESWC 2004 and won CAL-invite Season 9. I have had the unique opportunity to watch Sal develop as a LAN player through his participation in dozens of local New York City tournaments and I am confident that he is going to be a tremendous addition to Team 3D. Volcano will be practicing with moto, Ksharp, Rambo, and boms to prepare for the upcoming WCG USA finals where we look to defend our two time WCG USA championship against the best teams in America. Be sure to stop in #team3d and welcome Sal to the team.

The challenge ahead of Volcano is daunting, he will be Bullseye's (Complexity Syndicate) replacement as they attempted to repeat last year's silver medal finish. Time will tell.

I think one of the strengths of 3D is that they don't fold when they have bad results. I can't think of any other team who can do as bad as they have done at some events and stuck together. Every now and again Team3D will bounce back. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

u have to be a resident of the country of the team u attend with - so 3D = american, steel = canadian, so he cant go with 3D.

Thats why Sk got spawn, 4K used poog etc.. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Find his demo from CPL a year(ish) ago from zEx vs eoLithic on train. Volcano was one of the biggest reasons they won that game :) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Dunno how old he is now, but last year he was too young for CPL, if hes still too young 3D might be reluctant to take him on as a full member

but hes s*** hot :o [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

surely he'd have been better off going to WCG with tsg, given they're recent results [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Yeah, i agree with Myers, about 3D not folding. Thats one thing we need in the UK, decent teams that dont fold after a month. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Thing is Jack, TSG are planning a merge with United5 so the current TSG line-up won't be around much longer. They're planning to get a team to all live together in an apartment in Chicago. Rumours had it that they're having 8 hour daily practice schedules. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

UK have had that. ONE, disturbed and lc all lasted a long time with very similar lineups. What UK needs is for the obnoxious up and coming people to go to lans and get noticed, rather than whining about how good they are and how they can't get a team [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

4K have been through alot of roster changes and they havent folded either... it just comes down to professionalism at the end of the day. 4Kings have stuck by their sponsors on this one and its payed off. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Yeah, i was going to say.. that you'd put more effort into not folding if you had they're sponsors.

Yeah, i suppose your right about dist/ONE/lc DoZ, but i'd have liked more from the dNC/nocturne reform! [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
