ESWC 2012

n!faculty replace RuSh3D at ESWC

29-10-2012 11:26

Following Russian RuSh3D's inability to attend ESWC 2012, the French event organizer has invited German n!faculty to the $20,000 CS:GO tournament taking place this week.

Without any LAN tournament experience in the new Counter-Strike version, n!faculty have so far lost ESL Go4CSGO 14 final against SY_b, and managed a 3-1-3 record in EPS Winter 2012, including a draw against mouz last week.

n!faculty also took part in the German ESWC qualification, where they managed no wins before falling victim to Tt Dragons, whom went on to lose against eventual winners Team xXx, now known as mousesports.

n!faculty at ESWC 2012:

Azmican "asmo" Berberoglu
Christoph "disruptor" Dölger
Andrè "Kirby" Kempa
Benjamin "qk-Mantis" Oberlein
Simon "smn" Beck

ESWC 2012's finalized participant list now looks as follows:

NiP	ESWC France winner
mousesports	fm.TOXiC
Area51	Anexis
LowLandLions	ESC Gaming
ProGaming.TD	n!faculty

ESWC 2012 will kick off on Thursday with the CS:GO tournament starting on Friday. HLTV.org will be on-site in Paris to provide you with full coverage of CS:GO's first major tournament.

I think it's a bad choice but they are stronger than LLL and PG and probably ESC (in GO obviously)

maybe better than LLL and PG but come on, everyone know difference in ESC online and LAN, so we will see

That's bad, their lineup looks terrible, are they some of the best german saucers at least?

No wouldn't say that at all, they came 5th - 6th at i46 for the last cs:s lan. They are decent players though.

2012-10-29 12:41

fail

2012-10-29 11:52

This is surprising, but n! are preety good, i am sure they will do some damage..

2012-10-29 11:56

They are average even in source

2012-10-29 11:56

Kirby! GO 4 IT! And smn is sick too...

2012-10-29 11:57

lol, why not vp..

2012-10-29 11:57

nice, these guys are great tbh.

2012-10-29 11:58

Fail, don't tell me this is fail-event again from ESWC. Not going to watch, sry. -1

2012-10-29 12:07

1 reply

So because you think one team is sub par you don't want to watch. If that were the case we should of stopped 1.6 in 2010. That's sorta why the 2012 events sucked after CPh.

2012-10-29 20:56

HAHAHAHAH

2012-10-29 12:11

awesome!

2012-10-29 12:24

They should have invited S_Y&b...(WesternWolves, think that's their new name.)

Not really. They didn't want to accept it.

2012-10-29 12:29

nifaculty > NiP

2012-10-29 12:31

wtf why didn't they pick alternate or gamed ? i mean, if their aim was to pick a german team, it's a mistake to pick nfaculty which isn't a top team imo. Moreover i guess cph wolves, k1ck, ASES , BEMYFRAG are dissapointed cuz they would have bring more interesting games... it's a fucking joke, wp eswc once again.

Everytime team you listed couldn't attend ESWC in such short time.

I think Sneg(owner of VP) didn't want to send his team on ESWC, because team is obviously still not ready for such major event like ESWC.

makes sense

2012-10-29 21:01

finish 5th-8th in the qualifers and get invited, groups are going to be totally screwed up if they haven't got a clue about the current GO scene

2012-10-29 13:25

-ESC +mTw

2012-10-29 13:37

They should've invited Winfakt(Finland) instead tbh.

2012-10-29 13:38

i think many people are underestimating them.. they are good but gamed.de or alternate would have been a better replacement.

2012-10-29 13:40

We read us after the event again ! they will not last !

2012-10-29 13:41

Good luck n!faculty :) I hope they will surprise us

2012-10-29 13:48

I fail to comprehend any logic in this decision, I can think of at least 10 other teams that should be considered to be invited before considering this team, I know i will look like an arrogant douche from posting this, but for the greater good of the CS:GO community, I'm willing to look that way. Let me list them up for you. Copenhagen Wolves: A Danish organisation that ALWAYS have top teams under their wings, they have a team consisting of danish source players who has done well both nationally and internationally Mousesports (UK) : This is the team that won the source tournament of Copenhagen games 2012 no more needs to be said. Fnatic : Don't know if they play CS:GO yet, but they have played CS:online and might be looking for a reason to play this game, They are a huge powerhouse within Esport and looking at the previous ESWC reasoning they should be considered as well. Number 2 ,3 or 4 of the french qualifier : The french scene is really strong and have the potential to do some serious damage, however only one team can go through the qualifier, but the top4 still has a shot at doing great and raise the bar of the teams of the ESWC tournament as it is now, Both Caramba and Winfakt : Finnish top teams that consist of great players that have great results with them and are doing well in the CS:GO game. TeaM_x : Swedish team that are doing well and consist of known players and have decent results. Even gosu : A team of norwegian players that have just won a lan and are doing decent and making a name of themselves - they could be considered to be underdogs. And there are probably teams that I have forgotten as well! I know that it is required to apply for getting an invitation, however, there HAS to be other teams that have applied that would be a better suit for this major tournament :P I am sorry for launching at the n!faculty team and organisation, but I truly believe this is such a poor decision. I understood their decision about inviting the huge 1.6 teams/organisations and ignoring the CS:GO results so far, even considering the public relations they could get for inviting teams from lets say india or china would make sense, but Mouz from germany are already there representing germany so why invite another german team?!?!? Inviting a middle class team to such a huge tournament.... It's just not good enough when this tournament is supposed to represent the best teams in the world! My point is - step up your game ESWC! And just to be clear, this is MY opinion, not a reflection of my team or 3DMAX - Only mine.

ESWC need more then 10 teams: + mouz (UK) team X k1ck winfakt CPH Wolves and an asian team if they have one, the eswc would be awesome

I'm talking about the old 1.6ers. They definitely shook up the 1.6 scene when they burst forth. By my statement, I'm implying it would be great to see a CS:GO team from Korea onboard. Clear enough?

2012-11-03 08:33

3DMAX and those teams you list are better candidates than n!faculty who are s2s shit. I love their manager, and Kirby is a really nice guy - but the team is pure shit.

i actually pretty easily beat a team like n!faculty, and alternate for that sake with my own team. And so would any other team of the ones xlo listed. You have to be objective, im sure n!faculty will put alot of effort into it now, but with such short time its just not enough and candidates for me would be: Mouz/Millenium

Perhaps... however ESC haven't shown any good results in CS:GO either, but they still get the invite based on former results of their respective game, in that case Mouz.uk are definitely eligible as well :) Personally I understand the invite of ESC

Then please, be my guest, list them, because teams that are better than caramba are also candidates for the invite! But please, be rational, it has to be of interest of the tournament so they can get more public attention, or they need to have results that can make them a suitable candidate for the invitation :)

You have very nice manners but caramba, in my opinion is just a good team not a top team , there are many teams that can beat them in Europe ,even in Spain there are two, and we do not have much level as you know. anyway i respect your opinion.

2012-10-29 16:41

2 replies

Actually I wanted you to write some teams and tell me, why you believe they deserve at least some consideration for the invitation, but caramba is still better suited than n! for this invitation if you ask me. Basically I was hoping you would list the teams you believe are suitable for an invite to support my point :P
