Counter-Strike Source: zEx moves to CS:Source

By: Marc Turner - Published January 14, 2007 at 5:08 AM EST - Writer Archive
Another veteran North American Counter Strike team to play Source in 2007.
Once again, a well known, North American CS 1.6 team has decided to join the movement to CS:Source. In light of this past week's announcement by DTV and the CGS, many 1.6 teams are trying thier hand, with hopes to become part of the CGS league. In the following announcement at www.gozex.com, Team zEx has also stated that the team will continue to play CS 1.6 in 2007 as well as venture once again into CS:Source.

Official team statement at www.gozex.com:
Team zEx is pleased to announce our return to Counter-Strike: Source. Less than six months ago Team zEx took the international scene by storm as it announced its European Counter-Strike Source squad. The team had numerous victories at major international tournaments. Our current Counter-Strike squad will be participating in CEVO Counter-Strike: Source Season 3. The team will still be competing in all 1.6 tournaments this year as well. The year 2007 looks to be an exciting time in e-Sports history. Stay tuned for more big announcements soon here at gozex.com - thank you to our fans for their continued support in this time of change.

Pandemic = plays both 1.6 and source (source = cevo-main for them)
zEx = plays both 1.6 and source, but primarily going towards source and its professional salaries
coL = plays both 1.6 and source (there cal-i/m with verge teamates also on roster)
Team3D = 100% switch over to source (with the out of retired world wonder ksharp)

All alone are bring attention to source and sponsers are looking at graphics and products.
1.6 is playing the defense now (nothing inavative anymore) instead of the offense... now source is offense...

--coming from a 1.6 for 2 years i am making the switch myself--

lol #12 1.6 just swithed at half 2 ct side, so of course they are on defensive. DUH. but they only need 3 more rounds 2 win so it really doesnt matter considering that it is a ct sided map. LOL AT MY COUNTERSTRIKE METAPHOR 1.6 > source imo

#16...this is why the competitive scene in source is growing..because teams like col and 3d are playing it. Pubbers are the one's who don't care about what the top teams do.

America = playing source because they can no longer compete decently in international events and because they worship the mighty dollar over such menial notions as playability and a decent standard of competition

The sad thing about all the Source fanboys raving about their game is the fact that all the 1.6 players are still better than them at their own game. Sad.

SOURCE SUCKS....I played it...and switched back 2 1.6......3D and ZEX have no other option but 2 play source...as they 1.6 will be very tough for them in d year 2007.
And abt Source....i find d game very cartoonish...and 1.6 more realastic.

only reason why these damn teams are moving to source is for the money money money and only money.

So lame instead of playing the game built for competition, they go where they are gonna get paid more.

Typical amercians always goin for the money

#34 pretty sure both games were made for pub, its just 1.6 fit in better for the competitive scene. That being said 1.6 has had enough time in the competitive scene for people to fall in love and not give other games a chance, If valve get off there arse and fix some major bugs in source it will indeed be the next best thing to 1.6.
