iDemise raid BACKFiRE

iDemise have brought in the ESEA Invite team known as BACKFiRE, who currently are ranked first in in the North American league.

The move actually came a few weeks back, but the news never really seemed to reach the surface anywhere. BACKFiRE had made their way into ESEA Invite through ESEA Main, which they won.

BACKFiRE, back when they played ESEA Main, picked up David "Xp3" Garrido as their fifth and has since then stayed together, even after moving into ESEA Invite. The team has a very good string of results and is currently undefeated, with a 13-0 track record.

Prior to the LAN finals for the
eighth season of the ESEA Invite, the team has linked up with the North American organization known as iDemise.

"We approached iDemise mid-season cause the ESEA LAN finals are coming in a month and we needed a good sponsor to be able to attend the event. We knew they were looking for a team and they got instantly interested in having a 1.6 team to represent them. So after a few talks with the org and the team we decided to go for it and join forces.

We have been doing really good so far going 13-0, meaning that we secured our spot for the lan finals. Our goal right now is to keep our perfect record and take the title from EG, also be considered as one of the best team in NA. Let's hope we can do it and bring victories to our new sponsor iDemise." – David "Xp3" Garrido told HLTV.org

Representing iDemise are:

United States Anthony "djibouti" Manosca
United States Michael "nEtt1k" OBrien
United States Cody "nosyt" Tyson
United States Daniel "impsta" Whaley
France David "Xp3" Garrido

The team has an important match against Evil Geniuses this Sunday, a match Jordan "n0thing" Gilbert is disallowed to play and EG will instead use their stand-in Liridon "quas" Ademaj. iDemise has another two matches to play on top of the EG match, before regular season is over and the team move into the LAN finals.

#45 n0thingless EG because prior to N0things ban in the begining of the season prevented him playing in matches and it so happens that he was still banned on the date the EG vs iD match was supposed to be played. Since they were at IEM both teams had to reschedule for a new date.
