Iron Will replace TCM at ICSC 7

12-3-2011 15:02

The Intel Challenge Super Cup organisation has confirmed to HLTV.org that TCM-Gaming will be replaced by Iron Will in the upcoming finals.

The Danish side had earned a place in the LAN finals of the ICSC 7 league, which gathered 16 teams from seven different countries, after finishing in fifth place in the regular season, with 28 points from 14 matches.

The tournament organisation has confirmed to HLTV.org that TCM-Gaming have passed up the opportunity to attend the finals due to lacking the funds to travel to Kiev, where the tournament will take place.

Iron Will were the first pick in case of a dropout after finishing in seventh place, just three points behind sixth-placed side KerchNET.

The Russian team, who recently added Viktor "Sally" Filimonchenko and Boris "Snoop" Podvalshikov, were last seen at ASUS Winter, finishing runners-up to Moscow Five.

Iron Will will attend the tournament with:

Alan "Fly" Temirov
Johan "F_1N" Kochugov
Alexey "LeX" Kolesnikov
Viktor "Sally" Filimonchenko
Boris "Snoop" Podvalshikov

The ICSC 7 finals will run from 19-20 March at the Kiev CyberSport Arena. The following six teams will attend the event:

Frag eXecutors
Natus Vincere
USSR
sprayNpray
KerchNET
Iron Will

It's a little more than simply 'lacking funds'. We were only informed a week and a half before the event of the dates. Otherwise we'd have easily been there...

i guess TCM was afraid to get beaten up by the Kiev police. one of their players (don't remember his nickname) got assaulted last time they were in Kiev. but i doubt that is the reason though. ... OR?

2011-03-12 16:06

players was informed

2011-03-13 13:41

No we wasn't informed until the 7 of march. The organisation doesn't lack founds, but they simply didn't have time to book hotel/flights + inform sponsors securing us the spot in Kiev. We all checked our IRC logs, and there is no information at all. If you got any proof, your welcome to post it.
