Counter-Strike: i0nZ rejoins x6; GB's roster unclear

By: Mark Cheben - Published September 25, 2005 at 5:40 PM EDT - Writer Archive
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Aran “i0nZ” Curbelo, the one time zEx/Check6 member, has quit Green Berets and rejoined his former squad. Curbelo was removed from/quit Check Six’s roster the first time due to x6 being disqualified from the Florida CPL qualifier because of Curbelo being underage.
However, a lot of time has passed since then and Curbelo's stature as a player has improved, while Check Six’s fortunes as a team have soured. The team we once knew as zEx has undergone drastic changes, losing players like Dan Aimetti and Brian "destrukt" Flander, and adding players like Charlie "cbz" Pyo and Anthony "m4gic" Coriale. This new roster has had significant trouble in CAL Invite, sporting a record that leaves much to be desired.

However, Curbelo has seen his stock rise in his time away from Check Six. During his stay with GB, Curbelo has maintained high Gamesense scores and was a crucial replacement for Coriale, who left GB to join x6 at the beginning of the current season.

With Coriale unable to play in WEG3, Curbelo will step in and replace him at the finals in Korea. GB's roster is also in flux at the moment.

The Check six roster for WEG3 is as follows:

Derek "Titus" Clark
Andy "recTOOOR" Rector
Kevin "HolyMan" Lawler
Aran "i0nZ" Curbelo
Charlie "cbz" Pyo

More details to come so stay tuned to GotFrag.
