neo, taz and company are once more searching for an organization who can pay their travel expenses and salaries. PGS, MYM, WICKED, Vitriolic... who is next in the Polish CS saga?The Polish Counter-Strike team currently known as Vitriolic are once more left to seek out a new organization after their current one lost its primary investor Ahmed "Nordy" Al Muhanna. With him goes the funding that powered the team and so the Polish side find themselves looking for their fourth organization in two years. Regardless of how the situation is resolved they will attend the WCG Grand Finals in Chengdu, China, on the 11th-15th November.
It doesn't seem that long ago the team famed for being home to star player neo was winning ESWC as PGS, a name they had played under for years. By next year there was a controversy over whether they would even be allowed to attend ESWC as their direct invitations as reigning champions was strangely connected to the organization rather than the players, a compromise was reached though and they did what no Counter-Strike team has ever done in repeating at the ESWC Grand Finals as champions, this time as MYM.
The entire MYM organization came down and this time the team played the field as they initially agreed to terms with CrackClan (now known as PowerGaming) but at the last minute changed their mind and joined WICKED. By July they were renamed ex-WICKED which sums up that small chapter neatly. After months of searching they signed with Vitriolic and attended the EM Global Challge Dubai where they placed 4th and things seemed to have finally settled. With Nordy leaving the Poles are left to wonder what might have been if they'd completed the CrackClan deal, that team now fully backs the Finnish team they picked up in response to the Poles ditching them at the last minute, and once more in search of a home.
