ID Gaming strikes back

The ex-German and now Swedish organization Sweden ID Gaming, has announced today, the return of a Counter-Strike 1.6 team under their belt.

After a disbandement, which occured in the middle of the EPS Season, the financial problems are now solved with a Swedish company taking control of the ID Gaming group. Now partnered with one of the best online pokerooms out there, Titan Poker, the organization is proud to present you their brand new CS squad, a Norwegian team previously known as unsterblich.

"After leaving Fainted, we got some offers from different organizations, we chose ID Gaming because they can offer us a lot of things, we were very satisfied with this offer." Team captain Norway Thomas "Azid" Heltne told GotFrag.com.

While ex-NiP member, Norway Øyvind "KF3" Magnestad is leaving the team due to a lack of chemistry, former Expert Gaming member Norway Thomas "KRAPYL" Ovesen will fill in the last spot. (He played for teams like Expert-Gaming and Highscore, those teams may not be known to the international scene but they are well-known teams in Norway.)

Line up:

Norway Thomas "Azid" Heltne
Norway Kristoffer "PAH" Røgeberg
Norway Tommy "tacky" Mosgaard
Norway Tormod "torri" Hetland
Norway Thomas "KRAPYL" Ovesen

 

Further ID Gaming adds with Spain LRM one of Europe's best StarCraft teams.

Wrong direction? Using Poker as a supporter/owner isn't bad imo!

eSport should be sponsored/supported with alot of companies from IT branches but poker isn't one of them. What can Poker have from eSport... it's wordwide accepted as sport, it has huge ammount of money runed everyday... and making eSport sponsorship deals is just geting new players into the poker world.

First, what companies are from eSports branche? and what's bad about getting new players involved into the "poker world" ? and tbh I don't think that getting sponsored by a Poker Company affect too much players and then they go crazy about poker :p

eSport is mostly baesd on PC's which means that any company that has profit from selling PC's or PC related equipment have use of eSport. Poker isn't related with PC's unless you coun't real poker rooms security :). Connecting eSport with Poker means connecting it with Bet's and alot of real money involved in wrong way. Poker is just one of the "vices" which connects huge amounts of money(which isn't bad) and gambling itself. Considering where did gambling got the real world so far and how many problems it made(setting the matches for gurantee win) is not positivly effecting eSport. At least that is my personal oppinion on that matter.

well gambling managed to make world different in bad way. So far we seen few problems with eSport concerning that part. SK faking the result at server restart(can't recall agains who and on which event. Shouldn't be hard to find the news) MYM geting knocked out from WCG agains eStro by faking/obaying/changing(call it however you want) the rules. The more gambling in eSport can't one sided. Vice/problems comes with money and Poker companies are full of it.

Nice to see a StarCraft Team in an organisation like ID Gaming. I hope that ID didnt make promises, which they cant handle in the end like in the past. But new Management and a new beginning...
