Vitriolic closes its doors, leaving their CS squad without a home once again.
GotFrag.com - Vitriolic, a long standing organization who has teams in many countries including the United States has folded this weekend, leaving their teams without a home. The man behind the scenes of Vitriolic, Ahmed "Nordy" Al Muhanna, who invested the money in the organization and also acted as the Co-Owner has left, causing the organization to die. Nordy is very well known in the Scandinavian Counter-Strike scene for his generosity of investing money into teams for travel expenses into LAN tournaments, as well as financing the Vitriolic Gaming organization by himself for some time. Without Nordy's financial backing, Vitriolic could no longer function as a proper gaming organization.

Vitriolic has probably made the biggest name for themselves in the past month by picking up the ex-WICKED Polish CS squad, who were without an organization for months. It seems that the ex-WICKED boys just cannot find any luck with an organization, and are once again searching for a one that meets their standards. The ex-WICKED squad will still be attending this years World Cyber Games in Chengdu, China and have stated that absence of Vitriolic will in no way affect their arrangements to attend the event.

ex-Vitriolic CS:
Poland Filip "Neo" Kubski
Poland Jakub "kuben" Gurczynski
Poland Mariusz "Loord" Cybulski
Poland Lukasz "LUq" Wenk
Poland Wiktor "TaZ" Wojtas
