cs squad - with a first place at CPL UK, and a third place at the WEG3 event - it was announced in the latter months of last year that the players' contracts would be running out on the 1st of January 2006 - and it was very unlikely that they would renew them.
With the contracts not being renewed, it obviously meant that most of the team9.cs players would have been looking to find new teams to join. And now, on the 1st of January 2006, two of the ex-team9 players have found their new home - Catch-Gamer.
Both REAL and oops - two extremely skilled Norwegian players from the late team9 squad have joined the one other Norwegian powerhouse, Catch-Gamer. Catch-Gamer also achieved some great things last year, and of course were able to recruit the NoA star Naikon to the team as well.
This move by REAL and oops has however meant that two of the current Catch-Gamer players will be going inactive (although they will still be in the squad as back-ups). These two players are Juzam and zevy - both talented Norwegian players, who've played well for the Catch-Gamer team.
With these additions, the Catch-Gamer line-up is now as follows:
bsl
juve9le
Naikon
REAL
oops
Juzam (Backup)
zevy (Backup)
The team now looks extremely deadly, with the addition of Naikon last year, and now REAL and oops this year, Catch-Gamer will certainly be a good match for most of the other teams in Europe - if not the world.
It is still unknown where the rest of the late team9 squad will be moving to, but as always we'll be keeping you updated here at SK-Gaming.
We wish the best of luck to REAL and oops with their new team Catch-Gamer!
