KerchNET have announced that they have decided against attending the ProGamerSeries (PGS) event in Oporto.

The Ukrainian team, who recently won the ASUS Summer Cup, had been one of the first sides confirmed at the €15,000 tournament, being joined by fellow countrymen Natus Vincere last week.

However, KerchNET have now been forced to cancel their attendance as the organisation would not be able to finance the team's trip to Portugal.

"We want to announce that our team will not attend PGS event due to some financial issues," KerchNET captain Andrey "B1ad3" Gorodenskiy said.

"It is a big blow for our team, since we had huge expectations for this tournament."

Meanwhile, the PGS organisers have confirmed that KerchNET will be replaced by exotic, who have reached the quarter-finals in HLTV.org's first online qualifier for DreamHack Bucharest and have the following roster:

Tiago "dzt" Gonçalves
Diogo "Ririo" Aguiar
João "ehz" Monteiro
João "KillDream" Ferreira
Rui "SHOUW" Reis

With this change, the participants' list for PGS currently looks as follows:

GamerHouse  exotic  WebOne
Karont3  USSR  Virtus.pro
 fnatic Anexis
 Na'Vi

Stay tuned to HLTV.org for all the information regarding PGS, which will which will take place from October 11-14 at Exponor, in the city of Oporto.

I really wanted to see more of this team.

I think they are going to DH Bucharest and should be at ASUS Final Battle of the Year too. But yea, it does suck to see them miss out on this event, especially since there are so few left. Still, there is a good crop of teams showing up!

One question, why Oporto insted of Porto?
2012-09-20 22:46:59
It's more usual. Both are correct.

Porto is the club (and the city in Portuguese), but in English it is usually called Oporto.
