YYT switch to TCM ahead of LAN79

In a surprising move, TCM Gaming, previously known as Team CoolerMaster, returns to Call of Duty 4 with the signing of the French YoYoTech team.

In a official statement on the Team YoYoTech website, the British organisation confirmed the departure of their French Call of Duty 4 team, stating that the increase in activity within the CoD4 community and the current economic climate lead to the organisation not being able to support the team to attend both the national and international events.

With the next event around the corner, the French team, ranked 8th in Europe in the Cadred European top 10 of April, were quick to announce to their brand new home, who they'll be representing at the 2010 edition of LAN79 in Bressuire, France this weekend.

Having lost their mainly British based lineup back in January 2010, which consisted of Carl "vasquez" Finch, Robin "robyYE" Swaters, Declan "germaine" Elcocks, Kevin "reflexzR" Klempera and Christian "stylez" Hart, this step marks the return of TCM Gaming, one of the longest supporters of the competitive Call of Duty 4 scene.

Thanks to TCM and United Kingdom Morg we'll be able to fully focus on the game knowing that we will have a professionnal management supporting and following us. This should help us reach our potential and hopefully prove we are definately one of the best in Europe. Cheers to Morg, arEs and of course TCM for helping and trusting us."

Statement Marc "vazy" Berthold: "Today, I am very proud to announce that we’re joining TCM-Gaming. After a year of competition against each other, Ozwald, Frenchy, Jookzzi, Rukkae and I decided to play together in the same line up, in order to build a strong French team, which could also compete in Europe. After winning 3 big, french, offline events and finishing 5th-8th at the CIC7, we already proved that we were quite competitive.

With nothing else to think about but playing, we are now fully able to focus on our main objective and prepare ourselves for the upcoming events, where we’ll want to do great things. With a strong organization such as TCM-Gaming by our side, as well as United Kingdom Morg as our manager, I am sure we will be able to achieve what we want."
