Call Of Duty: Pandemic and Pure make roster moves

Big names leave... but others make a comeback
If you recall last season, team Pandemic seemed to have taken a hiatus and were rarely on playing. With word going around that Nabore and Prank “retired” from the game, the call of duty community labeled the team dead. Team Pandemic quickly corrected the community with a revamped roster ready to go for the final season of CEVO-P. The team now has added both Rob-Wiz and Limitless who at the time were playing with Pure eSports.

The revival of Pandemic is sure to take this final season by storm with such a talented roster. The remnants of the Call of Duty community will without a doubt be watching this team closely to see what surprises they have in store. I was able to recently get in touch with Keith and he responded to the roster changes by saying, “The new roster is great. I really enjoy playing with everyone single one of them and we all expect to have a lot of fun this season and hopefully win along the way. I have 100 percent confidence in every single one of my teammates, so I believe we are going to have an amazing season.”

Once the Pandemic roster had been finalized, Pure eSports were down to 3 starters and the uncertainty of whether or not they would be able to stabilize themselves to compete at a high level was in question. Soon there after, possibly the biggest hit came when it was found out that cartR would be indisposed for some time with his recent automobile accident. Within little time though, they were able to make 3 big pickups in TayloRRR recently of MoBgaming, MasterAlex of Frag'D and Flak who hadn't played the game since the earlier COD4 days with Check-Six.

With the quick repair of their roster pure decided that they would still have enough time to travel abroad to Europe to compete in the OutPost Onfire and The Experience events. When I was able to chat with snatcch he informed me of his plans for this summer, "We're planning on boot camping at flak's place for a few days before we depart to Europe. Once in Antwerp, we're going to meet up with fnatic and some other teams and practice for 2 days before OOF begins, then we travel to Denmark to participate in TEX.

Our plan with the team is to practice our ends off so that once we leave we'll be quite confident in every strat that we create. Hopefully our preparation will bring us success in Europe." We wish both teams luck in the final season of CEVO-P and Pure eSports as they represent the United States this summer and cartR as he gets better from his accident.
