SK-Gaming are one of the biggest within eSports, and now they turn 10 years, how amazing is that. To celebrate the anniversary, SK-Gaming chose to host an LAN Tournament. This is where things get interesting.
The LAN Tournament will be hosted in Cologne, Germany. SK-Gamings very own CS team will be going to the anniversary, thought without fisker and striker. Due to family reasons, neither of the two will be attending the anniversary. SK-Gaming are looking for two stand-ins which will be announced later tonight.
So, who else than SK-Gaming will be attending this anniversary?
SK-Gaming are hosting a CS tournament with four teams. The last teams got announced last night and the attenders are.
SK-Gaming - allen, RobbaN, SpawN, silver & merusame
mousesports - gore, gob b, cyx, Kapio & Tixo
Team NoA - ave, hpx, mJe, zonic & Sunde
PGS - Neo, Luq, Taz, kuben & loord
Team NoA are also facing some lineups issues, and will be using one or two stand-ins tonight. They will be using their regular lineup tomorrow. Further information will be announced later tonight.
The four teams will be playing one match against each other. The rules that will be used in the tournament are something most of you would hardly remember. The rules being used are 'Charges Only', which means only the rounds you collect as T will count. The one team that will end with most rounds, will be crowned as winner.
