Lions with zEn to ESWC 2010

14-4-2010 17:55

HLTV.org understands that four Lions members will attend the ESWC 2010 Grand Finals along with their former captain, Gunnar "zEn" Eng.

Eng who stepped down from his captain and player role in Lions last month has now received an autoberth to the ESWC 2010 Grand Finals.

This is because Eng lead former alchemists Unleashed to a fourth place in the ESWC Asian Masters last year. Seeing as Eng is still the owner of alchemists Unleashed, did the ESWC organizers contact him about the autoberth. Eng stated that since he is a board member of Lions, will he assign the tickets to them.

Eng also confirmed the members who will attend the ESWC 2010 Grand Finals:

Gunnar "zEn" Eng
Martin "hellzerk" Solbakken
Thomas "Vertigo" Andresen
Thomas "DaY" Rudstrøm
Raymond "RashiE" Nielsen

The ESWC 2010 Grand Finals will be held between the 30th of June till the 4th of July in the Disneyland resort in Paris, France. In total will the event boast a $213,000 prize pool.

Pus is just a bit hasty :)

2010-04-14 18:23

and mikkis?

2010-04-14 18:25

i just cant believe that zEn didnt give the ESWC invite to cbteam. Since kalle and tacky also did play for alchemists ESWC 09. But since zEn was leader, he can do what ever he wanted with the invite. FU zEn! go to ESWC and fail.

how many lans have you seen CBteam attend maybe? and why should zEn give the ESWC tickets to CBteam when members of the team have stabbed him in the back several times

2010-04-14 20:49

how about some sort of national pride for starters? cbteam is by far the only norwegian team with any possibility of accomplishing anything. Of course I do understand his choice in going himself, but it would sure help the norwegian cs scene to have our best team attend atleast one major tournament.

2010-04-14 22:46

lions has done it well on lans before and can to it again

2010-04-15 15:00

They have sponsors.

Lions is an eSport organisation, so the team is not on their own.
