CrossFire: Beyond the Game

MalteGR · December 2013

What's up E8 community, as you may or may not know our two respective teams Kanata and team Socks recently arrived back from the World Cyber Games. This gaming festival was held in Kunshan, China with all the top teams from around the globe competing for the Gold medal in E-Sports. China is a very competent team and took it this year with the Philippines undoubtedly showcasing the best Crossfire match that has ever been played in the history of Crossfire, going down to overtime and falling short by one round. Our team (Kanata) had the best seats in the house and it was a great experience. The Philippines are a great group of guys (as are socks) which is why we plan to visit their home country and train with their team - We really do want to bring a gold medal back for the North American scene. We took lots of pictures and we posted them on our respective facebooks and instagrams.. well my instagram haha @pmalte

This is a picture with 70kg and I, Team QCES Sniper/Support (Top sniper, our equivalent is Tyler/15oLLLLLLLLL). He is China's highest paid Crossfire player (for good reason) and he's a great guy. I met him back in 2010 World E-Sports Masters (When my in game name was Peter) and we have a healthy rivalry/friendship (I say rivalry loosely because the only time I ever 1'upd him was in 2010 one half

.

I have a lot more cool pictures but I found this one holds a special place and wanted to share it with the E8 boys and girls.

We are playing for the CF Stars tournament, I wish everyone the best of luck on these interesting times.

Know your limit, play within it (;
