HellGaming, a Romanian gaming community, was on the lookout for talented players to create the first professional Counter-Strike team in this country.

HellGaming opened negotiations with several players from different teams to create a strong Bucharest local squad.

With former members of teams such as The Elder Gods, I Got Game and snc.exotic, HellGaming hopes to have the quality to build a Romanian squad that can return to the top-flight.

"HellGaming approached me a couple of weeks ago with the brave project of creating the first professional CS team in Romania," Stefan "Stefan" Maritiu told GotFrag.com

"They told me to gather a strong line-up whom I could trust and that could have good results, we were offered contracts with salaries, bonuses and many other advantages."

HellGaming has already begun practicing in the team's private training place, with the official LAN debut being at the Romanian KODE5 Qualifier at Constanta, from December 8-9th.

The HellGaming roster is as follows:

Stefan "Stefan" Maritiu
Taofik "CreatuRe" Jawich
Daniel "k1d0r" Paka
Cosmin "never" Ghelase
Dorian "Dory" Pall
