Hi everyone!
As you may have heard already, our first official eSports event- the ROE Thailand Invitational will take place in Bangkok, Thailand on April 7th! We will be inviting 15 professional teams from all regions around the globe to battle it out for the highest glory- the first World Champion title of the game!
Out of the 15 teams, 3 of them will be selected and invited from the EU region. Today, we will be introducing second directly invited team: No Recoil from the CIS region! Let’s get started!
NO RECOIL - Team introduction:
The CIS has traditionally been one of the strongest regions when it comes to competitive shooters. The current No Recoil lineup was assembled very recently, it consists the best players from various other CIS teams in the past, which dominated the RUROE tournaments and events, often placing at 1st and 2nd, and performed remarkably in the ROECL Season 1 leaderboard. The lineup also brilliantly mixes young and talented players with a seasoned FPS veteran as their Team Captain- piterPENN, a tactical mastermind that leads the team to be always one step ahead of their competition. None of the players on the No Recoil team has LAN tournament experience, but participating in the Thailand Invitational will be a big step forward for this emerging and promising team.
