Just six days after the Crossfire Intel Challenge 7, today we are happy to report that more exciting news has just been released.Between the 30th of April and the 2nd of May, SteelSeries, the leading manufacturer of professional gaming gear, will be organising a €10,000 Call of Duty 4 LAN event in cooperation with Vita Nova. The tournament, dubbed the SteelSeries eSport Challenge (SEC), will be taking place at the
Cop3nhag3nRobot venue in the city centre of Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark.
The SteelSeries eSport Challenge will have an entrance fee of €350 and uses a similar format as CIC7, with the top 2 teams of each group (8 in total) advancing to a 16 team single elimination best-of-three playoff. The tournament will make use of 40 high end gaming pc's and will be run by the Vita Nova admin crew.
The signups for the €10,000 tournament will open upcoming Wednesday, the 17th of March. More information about accomodation can be found on the tournament website,
www.esportchallenge.com.
The prize distribution:
€5,000
€2,500
€1,250
4. €500
5-8. €250
The prizemoney will be paid out at the LAN event itself. The organisers do note that in case less than 32 teams participate, the organisation reserves the right to change the prizemoney accordingly.
The TEK9 crew will of course be present at the event to bring you the ins and outs when the tournament goes live. In addition, we will be releasing a guide to the SteelSeries eSport Challenge in the coming weeks, which will be similar to the Crossfire Challenge guide.

Good luck with the event, 8 weeks until it is quite a slim deadline for 32 teams to mobilise though hope they get enough.
btw this is the organisation that purchased the experience, so you know you'll get a well executed tournament

if anyone needs a player lemme know. Can pay for all of it
Want a bit of a decent team this time though <3
can pay etc :)
but besides that, the event looks to be great...although I would have put it at a later date (I hope a lot of local Danish/Swedish teams will fill out the numbers, I am not sure that every EU organisation can get the funds to get there immediately)
:) nice job.

the only time you go out is when som1 places an order for a kebab so please hush up and get back to making a movie with the same frags from your last 1 in it because ur absolute dog shit...
and funny how at i36 u say fuck all , i get home u be a mouthy cunt , cic7 u say nothing , i get home u be a mouthy cunt , typical paki all mouth nothing else :)
lets be honest... u go out have 2 beers come back online and act as if ur totally smashed out of ur head and start saying a load of bullshit to try and act cool when rly most ppl know ur a cunt
and someone make a thread with teams signed up?:DDD
+1
For the rest it's just a random weekend, drinking and chilling :///
Don't get all this overhyping.
And people like ruben, make me lol so hard.
Heel goed... maar dat jij niet tegen je 'vrienden' durft te zeggen dat je er niet bent omdat je gaat chillen in kopenhagen.. das wel heel kk sad..
maarja ieder zn prioriteiten hè, het ging er overigens om dat jij beweert dat queensday helemaal niet groot is..wat gewoon pure bullshit is. Maarja onwetendheid neem ik je niet kwalijk als je in een dorpje met 1200 inwoners woont.
CU@LAN RUBEN
Dat heeft maar weinig te maken met het feit dat ik in een dorpje van 1200 inwonders zou wonen.
Wel mooi dat je me ff gehyved hebt en vervolgens gegoogled..
kudos!
