7-8-2012 22:06

15,000€ will be up for grabs at Pro Gamer Series Exponor, taking place October 11-14 in Porto, Portugal.

It has been a little over two months since Porto featured the last event, which was the xfunction Fraglider Cup by CJM. A new event has now been announced to take place in October, featuring a 15,000€ prize purse.

The event will see support from peripherals manufacture Ozone, naming the tournament PGS Ozone Counter-Strike 1.6.

The 15,000€ prize purse will be split between top three finishing teams, with the following breakdown:

1. 9,000€
2. 4,000€
3. 2,000€

In the announcement it is mentioned that this event is an invite only event. Teams wanting to take part in this event will have to contact the organizers by going here.

nice :) more countries should do the same, 1.6 is still alive and always will be!

yes. but as the big lans dissapear do does the top players will to play the game practice and be at top level. less and less cares. they start playing dota2 / csgo 3x more then cs1.6 and when the games are released we will lose alot of the CS 1.6 top players

No. You might have known him around gamegune, but portuguese fox has been around in the international scene way long before that. The whole "fox > *" comes from gotfrag by the time WCG 2002 took place, it's not exclusive or new on hltv.org.

Besides that, we have no money cause of eurozone lol, when we had our own currency we were doing just fine :), guess why germany is the richiest country and the one with "more power" in europe :o

if you're more interested to discuss economy in hltv.org instead of support 1.6, i think you shouldn't comment.

fnatic, ESC, Natus Vincere, Virtus pro, M5 (If you have time to prepare), Ex-SK (maybe), znation (Hope), DELTA, x6tence, KerchNET (Must also have a decent game show), K23 (If you go, it is to prepare and will look much more worthy than GameGune), I should like to see a band of Swedish (niko, zneel, FYRR73, threat, kHRYSTAL), without a doubt it would be nice videlt BASiC and CO,, well, in addition, are any German groups, if these still remain. Or like the staff HEADSHOTBG.

2012-08-08 16:44

Big teams like fnatic could very well this tournament. Flight plus accomodation is around 500€ per player (around 300€ for the flight and 200€ for a room and food). Since they're fighting for the 1st place, they make a good profit from the experience. Even if then take 2nd place they're still winning money (even at 750€ per player which is a bit overpriced). Anyway, I will cheer for the strongest portuguese team (most likely K1ck)), but we may see big teams in this tournament and it will be MUCH more difficult than our the last "big" one.

2012-08-08 18:31
