ImageAfter Excello said goodbye to their Finnish CS team, the organization has shocked the scene by unveiling news regarding their recent recruitment: 1.6 and Warcraft 3 squad from Norway.



According to the Excello organization, this move is a part of their new development strategy they have been planning for some time. Expanding to the Norwegian scene is set to raise the level of electronic sports in Norway as the management explains: "Our focus is on the community and its development, not hiring a professional gaming team from Norway."

After parting ways with the Finnish team, the scene started wondering if Excello might choose not to recruit a new Counter-Strike 1.6 team anymore, but instead expand to new grounds such as World of Warcraft. However, Excello recruited some Norwegian blood instead.
