How could would it be if American CS was this active? German CS has to be the most active in the entire world. Every time I turn around there's something goin on there. You'd think there'd be more top teams coming out of that country.

2010-02-22 18:29

Germany is country with the biggest amount of sponsors, which makes it better for teams, there are a lot of big and small LANs and ESL Germany is doing just great job and ofc CS is so popular out there The same thing is in Sweden

2010-02-22 19:04

It is not more active than the Swedish, it is just that they all gather up in teams, while the Swedish tier two players just pug around most of the time. Lately we have seen some more clans forming though, and with the EPS Nordic coming up, I hope we can create even more, and create a similar scene, that would be so awesome.

2010-02-26 22:22

kapio, ninja, neeky, kodi? :D

2010-02-22 20:30

Are germans. Just because their names aren't Klaus or Fritz they don't have to be foreigners.

2010-02-22 20:51

Lol, made me laugh. :D

Kapio and ninja are playing for German national team, so that makes them Germans, even if they have Iranian (Kapio) and Vietnamese (ninja) origin :) Same for Direnc "seraph" Öz, who opted for Germany instead of Turkey. neeky is Turkish, and kodi, if I'm not wrong, is from the USA now living in Germany. I'm not sure about that tho.

2010-02-22 20:47

Now I know who to ask if I want to know things, you're a freaking human encyclopedia.

2010-02-26 22:26

Yes I am actually :)

2010-02-27 02:12

Good. :D

2010-02-27 15:52

Yasin "y4sin" Kovanci = turkish Milad "Milad" Zamiri - Turkish Direnc "seraph" Öz = turkish Özcan "OeTen" Atmaca = turkish edit pls

2010-02-22 20:09

Direnc "seraph" Öz is playing for Germany, so German is his first nationality. No mistake there. Same like Özil in football :P

2010-02-22 20:48

Why in the world would this team be allowed in Germany EPS if that was there first nationality?

2010-02-22 22:11

First nationality doesn't matter, as long as there's three German citizens in each team.

Captain awesome? let's see how awesome he is

2010-02-22 20:28

Milad is German/Iranian not Turk, guys! and KenaN is Serb Michael "klops" Wassong He is not just any "meatball" he is a "KoenigsbergerKlops"

8 replies

Hahahahahaha....I'm sure he is :) Man, there is no Serbian name KenaN. It's obviously something Turkish...100% not Serb

2010-02-24 18:56

KenaN is only a nickname. My name is Pascal, a french name, but I have no French ancestors Ò_Ó

2010-02-24 19:13

No Serb would ever nickname himself KenaN, trust me! :)))

2010-02-24 19:19

Does it have to be Turkish? My Bosnian friend is named Kenan, not saying it's Serbian, but it's quite related then, isn't it?

2010-02-26 22:28

It's not. I told you before, and I'll say it again...you should really go back to school!!!

I will this Monday. ;)

2010-02-27 16:01

More history and you'll be ok :P

2010-02-28 00:27

I don't have it right now actually, I have to wait 2 year before I can read it. ;)

2010-03-15 22:18

hoorai.XQ has 3 Turkish playing. thought eps Germany would have to be three+ german players?

2010-02-22 22:10

They are German citizens....they are just Turkish ancestry, some of them were born in Turkey but they are German citizens.

2010-02-23 01:19

my* is looking good, especially that they picked up pred from hoorai. 1) Mouz 2) n!faculty 3) Alternate 4) my* 5) hoorai

2010-02-23 01:16

I can't wait for the epic match up of ... Alternate vs Alternative ... hoorah! also can't wait to watch "Captain Awesome" and 'Chillys World Gaming' :D

2010-02-23 01:18

2010-02-23 12:20
