Gambit Gaming: New Home For Alex Ich & Co.

posted by kocja, 128 days ago

After the organization behind Moscow 5 surprised us by releasing one of its biggest assets, the League of Legends divison, the whole gaming community has been wondering who will sign these five young Russians. Today they announced that they will from now on compete under the name of

Gambit Gaming!

The ex. Moscow 5 players need no introduction since they have been dominating the European and international scene and achieved many big results. IEM Kiev, IEM Championships Hannover, ECC Poland and the European Regionals at the Gamescom were all won by the Russian powerhouse whilst playing under the name of

Moscow 5. Unfortunately, financial troubles have forced the organization to release the team just before IEM Katowice, but they have found a new home in form of Gambit Gaming just in time.

Alex Ich gave an exclusive statement to in2LOL:

I am glad, that we have got a new organisation, that decided to cover all our needs and help us in our goals. And I really like that the tag can be shortened to GG :D

GoSu Pepper's statement before the facebook fanpage release:

Russian Version

The name of our new organization contains six letters.
G - That's the first letter of the name [of our organization], as you already guessed it.
Considering the unrealistically high ambition and durability, we decided to make an announcement today in the evening! (Around 20:00 - 21:00 Moscow Time)

Will these players be able to repeat their success from Season 2 and make their new sponsors proud? How strong can we expect Gambit Gaming to be at IEM Katowice and in the S3 Championship Series? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Note: 'GoSu Pepper' has announced a nickname change. He will be competing under a name of 'Edward'.
