Mandic closes its doors
Time: 2012-01-26 00:00
Game: Counter-Strike 1.6

Today it's been announced that the Brazilian project which was sponsored by Mandic and Razer has not been renewed for 2012.

The team was started in September when fans were allowed to vote for players to make it on the team, though the lineup ended up featuring all of the former FireGamers and compLexity.br lineup regardless of the voting results.

It was already revealed back then that the project would launch with a plan for the rest of 2011 and now that the year has ended, Mandic has announced that the project will not be extended for 2012 and they will not be sponsoring another team, choosing to focus on events instead.

Mandic was:

Bruno "bit" Fukuda
Bruno "bruno" Ono
Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo
Lincoln "fnx" Lau
Renato "nak" Nakano

According to Toledo on his website, the squad that won WCG Pan-America over Evil Geniuses and placed 5-8th at World Cyber Games 2011 will continue trying to achieve things together.


so sad
2012-01-26 00:01:22
indeed, but even more sad will be if they keep this line-up.

such a waste of talent.
2012-01-26 00:13:26

Nak is worn out. And bit and Elll are not the same aswell. Changes are needed, or they will just hit the wall again and again....
2012-01-26 00:27:21
+1 i think fallen is the only one who wants to play, the others 4 just want money..
2012-01-26 01:18:25

It's true!
Sad that CS 1.6 BR RIP :'(

Like me old mibr and compLexity.br
2012-01-26 10:53:34
+ :c
2012-01-26 14:58:24
Well ex-coL.br was the players fault, mibr not, also mibr >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ex-coL.br
2012-01-27 18:53:09
shutup dude. fallen and fnx are tallents. and btw fallen is playing only out of the country. in brazil he doesnt do anything. fnx is just the best player. maybe they just go to mibr. MADE IN BRAZIL is waiting for them.
2012-01-26 12:41:01
but fnx dont pracctice anymore, he have like 10 or 20 hours in steam, when he have.
2012-01-26 18:59:21
"fallen is playing only out of country"

maybe fnx is the one that only do damage in brazil and can't do shit outside of his country
2012-01-26 19:29:23
Normally I'd never ask for this as under normal circumstances this will result in a vast discussion, but what lineup would you propose? There is not so much written here about the recent brazilian CS scene.
2012-01-26 22:13:06
fallen was born in the wrong country
2012-01-26 03:03:37
+1 hahahha i feel it bro ! Feels like shit playing for 8 years in India, if i had been in Europe...Lol//
2012-01-26 03:59:48
same for fnx cogu, although at some point there was enough talent to at least be close to their level back then. Right now there is no one close to fallen/fnx, or they are on different teams. time for some young talented players to be taken under their wings, rather than keep holding on to the old faces
2012-01-26 16:35:23
the problem is: our comunity sucks and our country sucks in infrastructure, so we need to work since 16~18 full time and also study at night (university) so.. no time for cs :/
2012-01-27 18:56:12
well some other reasons but same here, no time for CS, no sponsorships ;x
2012-01-27 19:47:30
I never liked Mandic,because its fans were so annoying.
2012-01-26 00:01:57
this lineup need changes:

-bit
-bruno
+btt
+spacca

fnx, fallen, spacca, btt, nak...



sry 4 replying
2012-01-26 00:15:12
-spacca
+kNg
2012-01-26 02:57:46
spacca is retired...
2012-01-26 03:00:19

2012-01-26 03:10:24
He plays everyday, he just has no team.

2012-01-26 05:07:24
he's retired from professional scene, but will continue to play online with some fake teams
2012-01-27 00:06:48
felippe1
lrz
BATISTUTA
fallen
kng

ofc this guys always have been in a great performance at least 2 years ago, a real brazilian team with conditions to get something in Europe. but it's just a reverie.
2012-01-26 04:50:51
agreeded
2012-01-26 05:28:01
yes, although Id keep fnx in there for the experience/boss factor ;D
2012-01-26 16:36:18
felippe1 - maybe ( if he continue to improve his gaming skills)

batistuta i dont know, because in batistuta best year he refused to join FIREGAMERS with fallen, and actually dont give enough atention to the game.

for me the best BR l-u atm is

falleN
shemp
lrz
kNg

& the last player its hard, maybe prd / felippe / urb / mch / btt
2012-01-27 00:12:29
of course the best brazilian line up must have fnx, fallen and nak.

and I don't see why you mentioned two awpers in he same line up, that's point less.

also a lot of players without any international experience :/

You must be joking... felippe1? Batistuta?
2012-01-27 00:50:52
batistuta in 2008/09 = kNg actually...

sadly batistuta dont have enough motivation atm...
2012-01-27 01:13:11
actually in english doesnt mean the same as in portuguese... just an advice...
2012-01-27 02:00:11
he is a young player and he is very good. Also he don't lost him game against great teams, he was the only player that played well against ESC(moddi,kalle...) He is a really good player and i like him.

i don't need to say anything about Batistuta he is awesome and one of the best players of brazilian counter strike history.

i can see you don't know so much about cs. :)

" i don't need to say anything about Batistuta he is awesome and one of the best players of brazilian counter strike history. "
hahahaha, Batistuta is overated, he only had a great 2008 and just it, today he is a shit, just take a look at his tournaments of 2009 till now. I can name at least 20-30 players better than him in history of cs br.
2012-01-27 05:18:03
ok, he is a really good player and he got some frags against ex-ESC, that does not mean he will always be a monster against top international teams

felippe1 is an awesome player, but yeah, ONLY IN BRAZIL.

I agree with you, Batistuta is a good player, but as mth stated, he isn't the same Batistuta that he used to be in 2008. Also he doesn't have internacional experience.
2012-01-27 18:45:41
Are you high?
You must be kiddin' me.

felippe1 and batistuta? come on.. what's wrong with you?

I agree with lrz and kNg because they have beaten ex-mandic lineup so many times, but I still think there is so many players better than them (btt, spacca, prd)
2012-01-27 18:27:00
+1 yes!
2012-01-27 21:11:48
Wow, I wasn't expecting this...
Did they even attend a big tournament?
I think they did but just 1 right? Can't remember...
2012-01-26 00:01:57
WCG cant you read?
2012-01-26 00:03:12
If I read every news they post I would spend my day in here.
Mandic closed doors, that's all I need to know.
2012-01-26 00:05:07
If you just need to know that why do you ask then if they attended a big tournament ?
2012-01-26 00:06:09
Because in the article they may or may not say they attended, so, easiest thing to do is to just write a comment and ask about it.
2012-01-26 00:06:48
It is so far unknown whether or not former Mandic, who managed to win WCG Pan-America over Evil Geniuses and place 5-8th at World Cyber Games, will continue as a team and look for new sponsors or retire as a team.


It takes two seconds to read that

Not really
2012-01-26 21:57:29
Well, just for you fucktards that read all the comments in every post just to reply to something that completly doesn't matter.

I said "If I read every news they post I would spend my day in here."
Ok now, I'll explain it slowly so that you understand what I meant.

So, this news is about mandic closing. Doesn't really interest me, only question I had was if they attended any event because I didn't remember.
Since I didn't care about anything else, I didn't want to read the full article.

So, I asked a question in the comments. But since you people just like to reply with completly useless shit I will reply back because I have nothing else to do right now.

I spent more time replying then reading the article because as I said I didn't care about anything else then knowing if they attended an event, and even that doesn't really matter to me.
But since the replies you give are directly to me, I feel obligated to reply.
2012-01-26 00:20:23

they rape EG as always... sry but USA boys cant talk 1 letter of br cs cause you boys are free frag for us.
2012-01-26 01:53:38
too bad EG was a way better team overall with way more successes, I guess you'll just have to stick with your 4th place at WCG with no wins over top teams in a bo3 ever.

NA CS > BR CS

We were better first, longer, and more consistently.

Ill say again... never some north-american team won a br team. bb loser ;*
2012-01-26 02:51:11
Then you know nothing.
2012-01-26 14:53:18
CS br >>>>> CS eua

Im a fan of n0thing, i think he's the best player in the history of america(north and south), but its true, they cant beat us i dont know why.
2012-01-26 15:56:32
Hmm. That's it? MSI Beat it?
Not the best argument though

2012-01-26 02:58:14
stfu blind brazilian fan .... USA was great in times of complexity or Team 3D, when EG started to play they were also good, brazilian teams are weak and never won anything bigger :) nice day
2012-01-26 06:13:48
HAHAHAHAHAHAH

brazil already won 3 big tournament noob. And never any usa team already win against a br team.

so

cs br >>>>>>> cs eua
2012-01-26 16:18:05
+1 EG was>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>mandic
2012-01-26 04:25:20
EG/3D/EG.CA never won any Wcg-PAN/IEM America against a Brazilian Team since 2006, in overall mibr > those 3, EG => Mandic (They might never beat the forger ex-FG/coL but they won MSI Beat IT Over fnatic, which had the golden trio).
2012-01-27 19:04:57
Longer? since 2006, Brazilian cs is a lot better than NA's. So...

Also, we had 2 or 3 years on TOP 3. So sorry if you think you really were that much succesful...
2012-01-26 04:45:46
X3
Team 3D
compLexity
Rival


Their accomplishments together are more than double what teams from Brazil have accomplished. Probably even more that that honestly, its not even close. X3 was on top since the 2000, Team 3D winning CPL in 2002 and adding tons more after including 2 WCG Gold Medals, coL winning ESWC 2005, Winning CPL(WSVG) Summer 2006, 2nd at WEG Masters, 2nd at WSVG Finals, 2nd at CPL Spain, Rival getting 3rd place at CPL 3 times in a row at the peak of its competition. This is tip of the iceberg for 3rd~ placings at TOP INTERNATIONAL EVENTS. If you want even more, you'll get a giant list. Brazil hasn't even ATTENDED ENOUGH EVENTS to touch this. After 6 or 7 events you'll start hitting 5th, 7th, 8th+++ placings at CPL with g3x. Brazil CS can't touch American CS.
2012-01-26 08:06:24
yeah and never some eua team won against a br team... FRAGGERS! roflmao

2012-01-27 00:48:25
I didn't say you weren't more succesful, I just said you weren't THAT MUCH succesful. x3 hasn't been on top since 2000, it was on top from 2000 until 2004, I guess. MIBR was on top3 from 2004 until 2008. And was a better team than any single american team.
But yeah, if you unite all acomplishments from many american teams, than tey are better than MIBR lol
2012-01-26 18:48:46
wow you have no idea about cs history. X3 wasn't around after 2001, MiBR wasn't on top of anything until they won ESWC in 2006, and that was their biggest accomplishment ever by far, dating to current day. They weren't considered top3 for more than 6 months~ out of the 7+ years they were around. You are completely misinformed.
2012-01-26 22:01:25
You were talking about TEAM EG only and now you put coL, Team 3D, X3 and Rival on your post. lol

Get real.
2012-01-26 19:33:32
Learn to read. I mentioned American CS from my first post. He then responded saying Brazilian cs was better than American cs because they had "2 or 3 years on top"

So I responded with why American cs always has been much better.

2012-01-26 22:04:03
Then you are wrong. American CS wasn't always been much better than brazilian CS , afaik. I'm pretty sure their CS was better than USA CS since 2006.
2012-01-26 23:32:37
Indeed.

2005: and earlier mibr < coL/3D
2006: g3x/mibr/GC > all EUA teams.
2012-01-27 19:08:02
wtf are u talking ??? have GamerHouse on gamegune, and its a great team, beated mandic 2times, 16-2 on the last match, just wait to see what GH will be win on 2012, if gh not win anything, u can talk this again....
2012-01-26 00:28:30
ok, just GameGune
will not lead to anything and without good sponsors = dying or dead
2012-01-26 00:39:51
i think GH is a good team, just need to have 1 chance to show your skill... but i may be wrong =X
2012-01-26 00:57:53
he's good in br scene, but they dont have any international experience... btw lets hope they can do some dmg at gamegune.
2012-01-26 02:52:36
cogu stopped playing 1.6

That's when CS BR died.
2012-01-27 01:54:19
go GH
2012-01-26 00:02:54
whats GH lineup today ?
2012-01-26 00:25:43

Is he very good or he just had "luck" in that game?
2012-01-26 00:25:12
can't say it was luck, but he is definitely not a safe bet yet.
2012-01-26 00:32:15
not luck bro, i watched the game, and gh was so much better than mandic...
2012-01-26 01:07:31
Yeah I know, luck is not the right word also, that's why I putted it inside "" but what I meant is... Like if he already is a really good player, at least in Brasil, or was he just completly fired up only that game.
2012-01-26 01:08:39
i understand what u are trying to say (sry for this f*cking english)

2012-01-26 11:12:45
Yeah I know but I didn't remember kNg actual nickname so the first thing that came to my mind was kingz lol

cogu's era :/

one dream.
2012-01-26 00:10:23
believe me, they're not overrated. If they could practice in Europe things would be diff.
2012-01-26 12:05:06
portugal players too, macedonias players too but wherever dude some ones are lucky some others not unfortunently
2012-01-26 15:24:22
We live in Brazil, SA.

Players from here use to win against USA teams.
Players from here have already beat many good teams in Europe few practice.

What about PT or Macedonian teams?

Don't compare them to it, we're talking about players who have won ESWC, Shgopen etc living in SA. They have the skill, they just don't have the opportunities. Can't say the same of PT teams, or many other countries.
2012-01-26 18:31:24
A mixture of defs and K1ck two years ago with the right kind of supporters (like razor) would clean all the american continent and a part of Europe.

Don't talk what you don't know nothing about.
2012-01-26 20:00:13
USA or brazilian teams who are the bests? both teams have 1 rly good player and the rest sucks compared to top players, nothing and fallen nothing more in america
brazil isnt better than portugal and macedonia for eg, bulgaria too but whatever
2012-01-26 20:37:48
Bulgaria and PT teams are rly not better than some BR teams, and again, even we living in SA.
2012-01-27 13:26:50
ofc not k1ck won 22 8 to one of the best teams in brazil but ok go cry to a corner and leave us alone

2012-01-26 00:08:36
i don't get why would someone be happy about this...

that's bad for CS as well
2012-01-26 00:17:29
I'm not happy :D It's just the brazialian scene used to be so awesome with just one great MiBR team owning and beaing stable...but now...it's like players are jumping from team to team, different team projects are made every fucking year and in the end nothing serious comes out of it...it's a bit ironic that such a good cs country can't really get back to where it were back in the days!
2012-01-26 00:30:19

2012-01-27 19:14:23

It's not sad since Brazil doesn't make any damage out of America

2012-01-26 00:14:24
sad... i hope another organization would pick them up, but it seems highly unlikely looking at the number of tournaments the team gets to attend.
2012-01-26 00:15:53
Kinda expected. 1.6 is officially dead in Brazil.
2012-01-26 00:16:11
only because there are no international top5 teams from here anymore?

2012-01-26 00:22:39
No, because they aren't attending tournaments and playing in the big scene.
2012-01-26 00:32:45
So it's alive only in Sweden, Denmark, Poland, Finland, Russia, Ukraine and maybe Germany?
2012-01-26 00:40:08
Yes.
2012-01-26 09:15:47
Even when some of these countries have only one or two competitive teams in the elite scenario?
2012-01-26 16:37:30
Yes.
2012-01-26 19:37:39
no it isnt, it's actually more active now than it was like the last 4 years. instead of having 1 and only 1 good team they now have ~4 teams that can compete with each other and motivate each other to become better. :)
2012-01-26 00:32:57
Can be. All I know is that there are no teams that can compete in the elite tho'.
2012-01-26 00:36:56
so dont make dramatic statements that you dont even know if they're true. yes, they haven't been attending a lot of events but still it's not dead and hopefully these guys can find some other sponsor so they can go across the pond and compete for a couple of events this year too.
2012-01-26 00:40:15
I still stand for what I said and that is that the CS 1.6 Scene is dead in Brazil. They have no tournaments down there, or, they have like 1-2 every year and some small tournaments where people just make random teams and attend.
2012-01-26 09:17:24

Get real, brazilian CS died when pvell stop suporting mibr 4 years ago.
The worst part is that Jason Lake even tried to change things here suporting these guys and they started fighting each other...
2012-01-26 00:31:44
You're right, there are tons of brazilians blinds
2012-01-26 05:12:32
i just don't know why you guys don't say that when mandic's sponsor was announced, for example.

saying it was dead when it is already over, is pretty easy, huh? :D
2012-01-26 19:53:47
Because I was too busy laughing at those guys voting for a line up.
2012-01-26 21:58:08
Too bad. I hope brazilian cs will become strong again some day.
2012-01-26 00:33:36
Well teams from the Americas travel expenses to European tourneys is a little too much given that they don't win. Smart decision. With the decline of $ in 1.6 you gotta be smart with it, keep it in Europe and keep the game alive there.
2012-01-26 00:33:46
when is the next tournament in brazil coming up? would love to see GameCrashers in action again. <3 btt & shemp :D
2012-01-26 00:34:01
coL plz!
2012-01-26 00:34:39
this lineup never achieved anything, at least they were experts about beating EG, FalleN is 5-0 (not maps, bo3) versus EG I think

I hope ex-mandic and GC mix players to create two new, better teams... or pvell chould put some money on the game again, something like 3 or 4 trips to Sweden per year and so on, like in the good ol'days of brazilian cs

"It worths mention that our line-up isn't over. The only change is that now we are no longer supported by Mandic SA. We'll keep playing together trying to reach our goals."

2012-01-26 00:57:23
last year and the beginning of this year we lost: EG (USA), MANDIC (BR), WMF/project KR (SK), Tyloo is nowhere to be seen.

top cs only active in europe.
2012-01-26 01:02:35
Mandic was never meant to be a long time eSports supporter/organization, they signed a 4 months contract just to get some short term benefits, mainly for public relations and such. Brazil is really isolated from the rest of the CS world which is unfortunate as they still have some hidden talents, so this whole mandic situation was predictable.

gamerhouse are really awesome honestely. They need a good sponsorship that give them the opportunity to assist to a big tournament
2012-01-26 01:38:11
and dont be that pessimistic, there are good teams (not as good as proffesional teams like in europa, truely)
argentina: dattatec
chile: elyseum, punto.cL
peru: blood, artyk, moneymakers
brasil: gamerhouse

and others :)

moneymarkers aren't a the head of "the big of america", but dat at mm 16 - 1, and the final we saw the really ower of brazil, and i think, WHERE ARE THE SPONSORS?, they are the unic when go to up to america..
2012-01-26 03:09:15
sadly this teams get no chance against top15 european teams.

2012-01-26 01:51:27
The best team in America, has no sponsor championships to play it off, that lack of opportunity they have. But maybe one day some company will not give value to their game and take a chance! 3 players from that team were world champions.

2012-01-26 20:01:31
cuz mibr.com.br is completely dead, forum off, no news anymore and etc. mibr was mibr WITH cogu, without him its not mibr anymore... Plus, no sponsors on Brazil, and mandic need changes, mibr, firegamers, col, mandic, almost same line... Their igl is not good enough, cant compare him with starix, kuben, theart, robban, carn, arcadion, ed1k etc, hes too low, mandic got amazing fraggers and a very good awper, but their strategy sucks... So primitive, look at their demos, comon ¬¬

Anyway, i doubt that any Brazil team will try a big title again, G.C , GH and sX got really low chances against any top10 team... Mandic was the only one who had, and now, they are done.

2012-01-26 15:05:50
The true is only one...

mandic wanted to be know brand mainly for the youngs and use the "CS" for that....

when mandic make your introduction they spoke the contract would be only 3 months entitled to an extension....

made marketing through facebook where you must "enjoy" (curtir) his page and everything about them...

The end was announced with false voting where your picked your favorites players and the 8 top rated would be appointe by Alexandre "gaules" borba...

players like BTT prd spacca were above ellll and bit in the voting but he chose for ex-fg ex-coL

The line up don't broke they just looking for a new tag and contract... which in Brazil today is almost impossible

sorry to say too much and bad english =D

Brazilian cs needs to let the talents go forward, like GamerHouse or whatever they're name is. It feels like Europe are letting new talents rise and Brazil is playing with the same players as before.
In my opinion there's only one player that can do some damage to foreign teams and that is FalleN.

mandic's latest performance was really frustrated, so for me... hmm, I would say I'd be glad to see fallen and mby fnx joining to GC or GH, I dunno which of them is able to give some financial support, also doubt about nak's filling in the lineup as he has got lack of skill he used to have (only my opinion, dont hit me)

alright, brazilian dreamteam ? hmm no, but I would like to see fallen fnx shemp kng and urb/nak/prd together...
2012-01-27 19:27:13

both double are best friends in-game

my dream it's see
fln best brazilian awper/player
fnx best aimer/assault/agressive
kng best new talent (so amazing with awp and assault)

and to compose this team

rikz (great IGL and nice aimd and 2°awp sometimes)
shemp77 (versatile player whit ak/colt/awp)

maybe this line can do some damage in Europe
