It is always great to see new professional teams emerging from the shadows to show their power on our beloved Warcraft 3 scene. Today the time has come for Apoc.BallerPoker to reveal themselves and start climbing up the ladder of competition and fame which both go in pair with high end Warcraft 3 gaming.

Found as Apoc Gaming in 1999, the team was Starcraft only, playing on the US scene, mostly on Battle.net East. The team has not gone pro during that period but won some LAN tournaments and was a very active clan.

In 2003 the team moved to Warcaft 3. Recently they have focused on the European scene. As the CEO Karan 'Source' Auhi figured out after playing a lot on Northrend, it would be best for the them to work with the Europeans.

What matters the most is that the team has gone totally professional today signing a sponsorship with www.BallerPoker.com. The poker community company has become a head sponsor of Apoc Gaming and thus the team received a new name: Apoc.BallerPoker, Apoc|BP| being the clan tag. The clan page is still under development and many other things still need a lot of care. As Karan says: 'I have 1000 things to do right now and we are all very excited!' Interesting thing is the fact, that the intention of this cooperation is to expose the Warcraft gaming community to poker and allow more players to try this game.

The team already takes part in several prestigous leagues such as WPL, NGL TWO and TFL. And, of course, it has some very well known names in its' current roster, especially Fury, Blade and Kot.

Here is the full line-up of Apoc.BallerPoker:

Daniel 'madoka' Hermann
Sebastian 'Fury' Pesic
Vadim 'Blade' Gundiuc
Vladimir 'BeckS' Skubko
Vitaliy 'KOT' Bikov
Caleb 'Reaver' Ridley
Vladislav 'Arxont' Nosik
