Could’ve done 3Dmax 8 months ago
Could’ve also bought NAVI junior
Sad
Surely a team made of purely spanish players with an average age of 26 is going to go to a major and have a big fanbase under a French org, what are these orgs smoking. I do not see this project lasting more than 6 months if even that.
Sucks for stadodo but Martinezsa is slightly better
How disappointing for the French scene if true.
Would make no sense honestly, especially when they were reportedly discussing with Ash and Siuhy at some point according to krl.
What is this team’s name in the origin language of the team? No fucking way am I going to call them “Gentle Mates” lmao
Edit: plz don’t be from the UK
It will be funny to see them in Portugal on LAN in a few days 😅
Stadodo played 6 months without org and as soon as they found an org they immediately kick him behind his back xddd
pretty dogshit roster 2-3 months for them.
Seeing some comments against the move. I’m not familiar with this team that they picked up, but GM8s entered the Call of Duty League this past season and made some very questionable roster decisions that put them in 11th/12th place this year. Their org owner Gotaga, who is an OG pro cod player from France, has been trashing the team on his streams lately criticizing their gameplay and talking about how he wants to start completely new going into next season. Not a good look, and I don’t see any project team of theirs doing well.
Do these big orgs even care about their core fan base?!?! This is a french org, ran by massive french personalities, INVEST in french talent, who makes these decisions, so out of touch.
Biased, but I think this will go better than people expect. This core is coming off a T2 tourney win with a stand in precisely for Stadodo and has been cleaaring every T2 group stage 3-0 for a good while now. Last time this core had MartinezSA (or any competent awper at all) they won an ESL Challenger event.
One of the biggest org in France not only entering cs by signing a barely tier3 roster but also a fully spanish roster from the nation having the biggest esports rivalry with france. Smart decision.
