More teams are in the wind. This writer jumped to the guns in his favourite foreign language, ran it through Google translate and cranked it up to 11. Here’s the latest news.

Coolclan

We’ve written about the new Coolclan before. Now, things finally seem to be materializing. New additions are:

Seppo, who is back to ETF2L after a ban for racism (+6 months inactivity after). He’s got history from such div 1-and-a-half teams as Nervous, Delirium and K1ck.

Codcrille, former soldier for Broder, medic for Hboda, scout/sniper for Deliverance. He is perhaps best known for his performance in one of the Dignitas video blogs, in the role as himself.

Treigzak, former scout for Fracture, Animate, Übersexuals (won season 3), medic for the original Coolclan. Maybe even better known for his contribution to Team Norway’s epic 3rd place in last year’s nations cup.

The lineup already consists of Patriarch, Vaxjö, Illii and  Indey.

“teh Project”

bE has been missing in action for quite a while. The last nail in the coffin comes in the form of a new team called (you guessed it) the Project. Depch, Hekka and Adiemus still stick together, with the addition of 3 new faces. Fadestep (eSrael, POD/iG, Pentia), Waggish and Rude. The latter 2 come from lower divisions and shall be interesting to follow. Rising talents?

Team Empire

Best known for their proletarian-of-the-month, Kondor, the team is now looking set for a new adventure without him. Empire has been around for ages, last seen folding after just 1 match played in their div1 debut, Season 7. According to the team profile, their new lineup consists of:

• Sys
• Dronos
• Mtnz
• Rodef
• Undertaker
• Baklya
• Bala

Exciting times as ever, best of luck to all of them etc.

Thanks to Evokje for the tips (you’ll get cookies if you make a whole article).

With the fall of Empire just after playing 1 season 7 game, inevitably there would be some players wanting to play more.

5:05 PM – drono$: i just only heavy classes atm – me, Rodef, Sys, MtnZ
5:08 PM – drono$: i’ve looked for 2nd solly for ages and get Sys who’s the best i can grab now
5:09 PM – drono$: i prefer take non-russians scouts if their skill is enough
5:12 PM – VanillaTF2-insider: huh? i thought russians liked to play with russians
5:14 PM – drono$: mostly u right, but i’m forming div1 team and it’s hard to get guys just from 1 country
5:15 PM – drono$: the biggest problem for russians – language, i played with some euro guys in different games and get some expo

Considering Kondor‘s imminent release from his ban sentence, and the myths surrounding Russian scouts, it may seem a surprise to many that these guys want to stray from their Russian path. Secure sources, also says that Dutch poindexter Koeitje (currently in PENTIA) has been asked to trial. Who knows, maybe Techtron will be interested?

One thing is certain – with the claims of div1, there’s nothing lacking in the self esteem department. Good luck to them all!
