LDLC shut down CS team

31-10-2011 18:39

According to eSahara.net, the French organization LDLC.com has decided to shut down their Counter-Strike division due to lack of teams on the French scene.

In late April when Yannick "P0My" Analoro announced his retirement during the Gamers Assembly 2011, the situation started to deteriorate for the French organization. The team's final showing was at the season ending ESWC France 2011 even where they were eliminated by Virus in the semi-finals.


  Ozstrik3r to coach eSahara

Futhermore, Steeve "Ozstrik3r" Flavigni announced in the interview he's putting a stop to his CS career except for some LANs, and also went on to say he will coach the eSahara squad during this season.

LDLC were: 

France Steeve "Ozstrik3r" Flavigni
France Michel "mshz" Nguyen
France Vincent "YanK" Fournier
France Kyle "NOtA" Saadi
France Yannick "P0My" Analoro

Both Nguyen and Saadi have suggested they will continue with the game, but sadly Fournier is also going to step down from competitive Counter-Strike, but still play the odd LAN here and there.

eSahara + mSx, the 6 players of france who still in the scene. They are only a few, but with practice they could be a top 5 team i think

MaT doesn't play anymore. And there's so many players better than YiikoN like mshz,CosMo,loduN,Diodel,nota for example... But you're right, mSx+RiGo as igl is THE shit.
