Games Convention is finished off with eSports Awards, crowning players, teams and more for their effort throughout the year.
The eSports Awards is to celebrate the eSports icons and stars. The awards are handed out, judged by the community votes and an official committee. Each award is prestigious in its own way. Counted as the "most" prestigious, is the eSport team of the year.
Out of a total five nominated, the Danish Counter-Strike 1.6 squad of mTw won the award. In a speech given when receiving the award, the team was celebrated for their 2007 and 2008 results. The team snapped the award in front of Samsung Khan (StarCraft), mousesports (CS 1.6), SK Gaming (FIFA) and Carolina Core (CGS).
Another award was given to mTw when Christoffer "Sunde" Sunde received an award for Best Counter-Strike Player. Sunde won the award in front of team-mate zonic, f0rest(fnatic), solo(e-STRO) and gore (mousesports). With two awards in the suitcase, mTw can begin their journey towards San Jose where the team will be attending ESWC 2008 Grand Final. First group stage match will be versus Assasin List from United Arab Emirates.
