The Philadelphia 76ers bought Team Dignitas and Apex. Well deserved for Odee given how long he's ran his org for.

Team Liquid has been bought by Peter Guber (founder of Mandalay Entertainment, Co-Executive Chairman of the Golden State Warriors, and owner of the L.A. Dodgers) and Ted Leonsis (CEO of Monumental Sports & Entertainment, which owns the Washington Capitals and the Washington Wizards). Really big acquisition for TL.

MonteCristo is also hinting that more big sports teams will buy other esports orgs.

I hope the team Team XENEX org can possibly pick up the LEGO roster; LEGO have been improving a lot lately and it would be nice to see them get a sponsor

CM Storm QuickFire Rapid TKL with Brown Switches for about $75. Cooler Master makes great keyboards so this should be a good fit for what you need.

Also, speaking of Cooler Master, they're doing a giveaway of a CM MasterKeys Pro L with special clear switches and keycaps if anyone is interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/543nr5/giveaway_win_the_special_edition_masterkeys_pro_l/d7ylv09

Thoughts?

Black Mesa, it's a really good HD remake of Half-Life 1

Fun fact: two players who were on the Full Tilt roster at some point are now on Crowns: spudd & Thalash

EA servers being ddos'd right now, and I think Origin is down as well

Spent 3 days without going outside handling social media while watching the best TF2 ever

It was worth it :D

This is how the i58 standings changed throughout the group stage

Full Tilt need to win this map to grab 1st seed. If they tie or lose, Jasmine Tea gets the 1st seed

We're still waiting on servers to be fixed. Standby.
