-LPK is back.
'nuff said. The team that's led by Doop is looking to dominate the game once more. It was the WOGL-O champion team in 2010 and seems that they will take part in WCG USA once more. Best of luck to them!

-HAMMERTIME v.2?
After the split in the original team (maveloff and 15oL left for Socks, albert left for Carbon) people wondered whether or not HT will be able to come back to its powerful status in E8. However, in the past few days,HT picked up Fresh and Wizdom, both of whom are strong players. Will the current lineup of

• monstar2k13
• twelvez_1g
• Fresh
• Wizdom
• Nova.
• myAWM

be able to carry on the legacy of the once reigning champions of WCG USA?

-PDF Disbands
With Erick joining Doop's team, LPK, arguably one of the best teams in CFNA disbands, unfortunately.

-Ping Issues
After the latest July Patch, it seems that many people who live on the east coast have gotten their pings lowered to how they were before. However, it seems that people on the west coast and people in other regions in the U.S. have gotten a dramatic increase in ping in the servers located in Toronto. Let's all hope that Z8Games can fix this issue so that people on teams that live in the west coast can get proper practice before WCG USA rolls around.
