Full EnemyDown EDCSSL S16 Details
QuickScope League 1 Predictions

Our roster shot up to 9 people, but that is no longer. The first victim casualty there was Korvuss, who was struggling with keeping active and lost a will to even play. Then PyRo decided to leave, who left to find a new challenge after finding his chances limited in LaB (he’s quite happy in kokaine now, after my recommendation – I’ll take full credit for that). Killersan then fell into the trap of getting a new job and developing a social life. He stopped missing CS, and LaB had to continue onwards.

In reality, after that little bit of poetry, members come and go. Shit happens. It’s the same in any team in the history of the Internet. We’ve recruited before, and we recruited again.

We recruited dreD (or drD, since half of LaB loves missing out on vowels in their nicks nowadays) into LaB. He says he’s been looking for the right team for a while and a load of other crap to sweet-talk us, then jumped on a server and showed he wasn’t exactly terrible. He even told us what to do a bit and made hollow promises of attending LANs. Fuck it we thought, then offered him a place with a rousing speech. He was AFK of course, but offered him a place anyway.

LaB now have 7 people on the roster.

WHO ARE LaB?

You’re kidding right? Er.. this is awkward now. We are a bunch of guys who like to play Internet games together and take pride on being a bunch of idiots who are pretty awesome to play with. LaB started in the 90s, and was successfully resurrected in Summer ‘09. LaB are KGL and ED regulars and we play in the KGL and have competed in the last 2 EDCSSL seasons. We’re all 20-something, active and settled. We’re good pals with a number of other established clans. We organised the 44-man KGL box at i40 too.

YOU’RE RECRUITING.. BUT WHY!?!?

We’ve trimmed our roster in the last couple of weeks, and now we want another main guy to sit on the roster. You have to be the right guy if you want that to be you. If you’re good enough and active enough, you can expect to play in as many games as we play (there’s no rotation policy).

DO YOU HAVE A TICKLIST OF WHAT YOU’RE LOOKING FOR?

Doesn’t every recruitment post?

• 18+. No exceptions. The fact we like beer and pornography might one day get us in trouble if we’re around minors. We’re all 19-27 and we’d rather you fit in.
• Stable disposition. We’re looking for people who we like to be around and are quite entertaining in some way (i.e. got great banter, or are quite amusing to abuse). We don’t want someone to start smashing up the crockery because we suck at CS on Sundays.
• Active. Be ‘relatively’ keen. Don’t worry if you have a real-life – we don’t mind those bongo drum lessons your mum pays for on Thursdays. Our team is much smaller then it was now (we’re still active) and we’ve been playing together for a good while, but we’ll work with the best guy to get him wired to our wavelevel.
• Positive thinking. We’re the type to work at their game evolve instead of mudslinging at each other.
• Mid+ or Mid-High. We’re not amazing but we know how to play the game. You must be able to shoot people and not be a thicko.
• The want to improve. A little dedication to improvement of your game.
• Will to abuse and be abused. THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT.
• LANnable (Not essential). We went to i38 (and sucked), and we’re going to i40. We went for the banter and the giggles.
• Sundays (KGL), Tuesdays (EDCSSL) and Thursday activity (ED, etc.) are the days we want you to be around.
