Counter-Strike: CPL Nordic CS Day 1 Melee

By: Luis Mira - Published November 29, 2006 at 10:00 PM EST - Writer Archive
The CPL Nordic stop is about to begin in Jönkoping, Sweden, with giants such as NiP, SK and Made in Brazil in attendance.
The last CPL stop before the main tournament in Dallas starts this weekend. Held in Jönkoping, Sweden, from November 30th to December 3rd at Dreamhack, this event will gather some of the world's finest teams to fight for a berth in the CPL Winter Championship.

In the Counter-Strike tournament, the winner of the CPL Italy, aAa, will face much stronger contenders. NiP has the first seed but its latest results in the NGL and Extreme Masters tournaments has not been the best. They drew against mouz and NoA and lost to hoorai, who is attending CPL Nordic as 69°N-28°E with barrack as a stand-in.

This tournament will be a good test for Begrip Gaming's Swedish team and a good opportunity to see Magnus "Magix" "Berndtsson, a former fnatic and RAW member, in action with his brother's team, Volt Gaming.
