UKCT - UKCounterTerrorist

Kirk "Vekzen" Harrison and Matthew "JonS" Bloxham have recently left CTX due to jumping ship to the new reformed veni Vidi vici. There is a lot of confusion over the 2 guys leaving CTX, so i caught up with Vekzen to get his views of what has gone on in the last week and what is the mystery behind reforming vVv team.

What was the problem at CTX, you guys had a ok first season together what had gone on?

vVv|Vekzen: Wasnt a problem with the whole team, I just found it hard to find a solid 5th and 6th player and then the motivation fizzled out, im gonna miss davies and m0rf so much, they are top lads and i would like to wish them all the best.

What made you reform vVv Team?

vVv|Vekzen: On the whole it wasnt my idea 100% to reform, it was more of joint effort from the old members missing what we had before when we were all together and that thing is stability and fully active roster.

Would you say this current team is better then CTXs old line up?

vVv|Vekzen: I'm not gonna compare vVv to CTX cause its a total different line up and playing styles, we will just have to see what happens!

What leagues are guys going to be involved in?

vVv|Vekzen: Hopefully SGL and CSGN and maybe ESL with some nice cups inbetween, we hope to be participating in as many leagues as we can.

Are you hoping to attend any lans in the future?

vVv|Vekzen: Yes of course I have been to plently of lans and traveling isnt going to be a problem within this team.

What future do you see in this team, considering 3 different nationalities in the team?

vVv|Vekzen: I see a good future, due to different nationalitys and different playing styles I seriously think some uk teams wont know how to take us. As for LANS with this team it wont be a problem all of us have played for serious teams and willing to travel over seas to different events.

vVv Team Line Up:

Rickard "Aderyn" Wallin
Matthew "Jons" Bloxham
Harold "promise" Nguyen
Michael "sjeng" Sozanski
Maurice "tyRoNe" Booms
Kirk "Vekzen" Harrison

Please wish the best of luck to these guys!

Firstly apologies because I didn't know about this match until I saw the HLTV being spammed but today sees 4Kings kick off their NGL One campaign. They have already beaten the polish team Pentagram on de_dust2 16-00 and are currently playing against the new Norweigan powerhouse team mYm on de_train. The tournament features four teams, the three previously mentioned and SoA. The brackets can be viewed by clicking here.

The second slot was won yesterday by NoA who beat speedlink on the second map in the final. The other two teams trying to qualify were GoodGame and AllTheRage.

That makes the NGL One season II teams as:

4Kings
aTTax
fnatic
hoorai
mousesports
NiP
NoA

Best of luck to 4k!
