7th - CEVO Semi Pro Season 6

A seventh place move-up from the SP division, the placement tournament was no match for them. Although they were grouped with some of the lower calibur teams, a spot in the professional division has their name on it. Their first win over GotV3 last night is a step in the right direction as they look for another. Yet to be put to the test against some of the best, the journey for them will be interesting.

1st - CEVO Semi Pro Season 6

Coming off their CEVO-SP championship, they are said to be a top competitor this season. Looking back at their previous season, their road to victory wasn't as easy as you think. Majority of their matches were close and only some by a landslide. The placement tournament was more of a warm-up for these guys before stepping into the ring. With the help of former X3O member Jeff "hero" Mettetal, they can round off to become a successful team in the long run. Despite their recent accomplishments, if the pressure gets to them early on, they could fall behind.

Recent Accomplishments

8th - CEVO Main Season 6

For starters, unmoderated wasn't suppose to compete in the placement event. Lucky for them, they replaced a team and now have a shot at competing with top teams in the nation. They struggled with Evil Geniuses in the placement event and wasn't able to defeat them in group play. In the end, they were able to squeeze through to advance by rounds. Kicking things off this week, they will face last season's runner-up, eMazing Gaming.

GotV3

United States Matt "mxd" Chung
United States Tony "xaNsaMa" Lo
United States Eugene "zby" Watson
United States Jon "broodex" Gibbons
United States Jasper "sfX" Ko

Recent Accomplishments

4th - CEVO Semi Pro Season 6
6th - Dust-Off Championships 2007

Judging from the placement event, they cruised through pretty good. Going back through their previous season, the matches spoke for themselves due to close rounds. Starting things off for them this season, they already suffered their first loss to Riot Makers. Unable to keep up with the opposing team, changes are already looking to be needed. Being in the professional division might put a lot of pressure on them if they can't get a rally going early on. GotV3 has yet to lose to NoPression since last season, and they will face each other next week.
