Hey guys... got this email a couple days ago, and finally got registered. Looks to be a pretty awesome online tournament, with finals taking place at PAX Prime! Also, if you successfully register a full team for the CS:GO Tourney, your entire team will get beta keys! Just wanted to share the info!
I have registered a CS:GO team, so if anyone has interest in a SUPER casual team (meaning I havent played CS in years, and never played CS:GO, and really bad right now).. feel free to hit me up for team name and password. I just want to finally get a beta key, and would be fun to see some competitive action and how it goes. Anyways... enjoy:
