Alternate aTTaX change name

20-2-2008 15:35

Alternate aTTax, German multigaming organization undergoes name change.

Since 2003, the team has been known as Alternate aTTax. The team will as of today loose the aTTaX and be known as Team Alternate in the future. The team has been known to many inside the eSports world, as just aTTaX. Head sponsor Alternate, German online portal and shop for most hardware and software parts, has been forgotten from time to time, as most people just name the team aTTaX.

No more aTTaX, just Alternate or Team Alternate. The Counter-Strike team will be attending NGL One Season 4 finals this weekend in Berlin, Germany, showing off the "new" tag, and still with the same lineup consisting of:
Germany Manuel "approx" Zeitz
Germany David "CHEF-KOCH" Nagel
Germany Jan "mooN" Stolle
Germany Benjamin "paN" von Mulert
Germany Roman "Roman R." Reinhardt
Pay the team a visit on their website for more information.

And despite the "official" name change, what will avoid people still calling them aTTax? xD Just like it happens with mtw.dk -> NoA ::)

they changed their name because aTTaX is the team of ALTERNATE, but everyone sais aTTaX instead of ALTERNATE aTTaX, so they want to show that aTTaX is the team of ALTERNATE, I can understand them but it sucks :(
