After Epitacio 'TACO' de Melo announced his departure from the SK Gaming lineup, the Brazilians have been looking for a new fifth player. Now they have announced who will fill the gap.

After negotiations for Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev and Egor "flamie" Vasilyev to join the team reportedly broke down, SK Gaming have found themselves a replacement for Epitácio "TACO" de Melo.

swag to play for Cloud9 at ESL One NY Qualifiers

15 August 2017, 11:42

Bernhard ChisBernhard "chisar" Chis – @imcalledbernie

The recent unbanning from ESL events have recently struck over us. Cloud9 were the first ones to capitalize as they pulled their rabbit, Braxton "swag" Pierce, out of the hat. Pierce has now been granted a place in the Cloud9 roster under the ESL One New York Qualifiers.

According to Jake "Stewie2k" Yip, the rifler Timothy "autimatic" Ta will be out of town and therefore unable to attend the qualifier. With a great individual talent in the bag, the North American organization did not hesitate to pull Braxton "swag" Pierce out to the frontline.

<div class="defaultSection postContentSection sectionWithoutTitle"><div class="sectionContent">								<div class="content">According to Jake "Stewie2k" Yip, the rifler Timothy "autimatic" Ta will be out of town and therefore unable to attend the qualifier. With a great individual talent in the bag, the North American organization did not hesitate to pull Braxton "swag" Pierce out to the frontline.<br />  <br />  Pierce has previously played under the banner at cs_summit where the team achieved a fourth place finish, beating the likes of Optic and NiP Gaming.<br />  <br />  The qualifier certainly looks stacked as both the previous-mentioned Optic and the major finalist Immortals stand ahead. Cloud9 is set to join the qualifier with the following roster:<br />  <br />  <div class="lineup"><h3> Cloud9 </h3><img alt ="USA" title="USA" class="flag x4x3" src="https://dynamic.fragbite.com/flags/4x3/166.svg" /> Jordan "n0thing" Gilbert<br />  <img alt ="USA" title="USA" class="flag x4x3" src="https://dynamic.fragbite.com/flags/4x3/166.svg" /> Tyler "Skadoodle" Latham<br />  <img alt ="Canada" title="Canada" class="flag x4x3" src="https://dynamic.fragbite.com/flags/4x3/109.svg" /> Michael "shroud" Grzesiek<br />  <img alt ="USA" title="USA" class="flag x4x3" src="https://dynamic.fragbite.com/flags/4x3/166.svg" /> Jake "Stewie2k" Yip<br />  <img alt ="USA" title="USA" class="flag x4x3" src="https://dynamic.fragbite.com/flags/4x3/166.svg" /> Braxton "swag" Pierce<br />  </div> <br />  According to speculations, Pierce has no valid contract with Cloud9 and is, therefore, waiting before a potential re-signing. Pierce is said to join forces with San "DaZeD" Marine and Keven "AZK" Lariviere but is still accepting offers.</div>

The American side of Cloud9 started out as attackers on Cobblestone, winning the pistol round in a dominating manner to promote a great start.

<div class="defaultSection postContentSection sectionWithoutTitle"><div class="sectionContent">								<div class="content">The American side of Cloud9 started out as attackers on Cobblestone, winning the pistol round in a dominating manner to promote a great start.<br />  <br />  Unfortunately, Dan 'apEX' Madesclaire and Richard 'shox' Papillon managed to repel the Americans on the coming round, each shooting down two targets.<br />  <br />  On the first gun round, Cloud9 managed to take off in a congested field as Jake 'Stewie2K' Yip created space, going victorious in the five upcoming rounds.<br />  <br />  Despite the entry-fragging consistency of Yip, Cloud9 did not manage to convert the tenth round of the game, giving Madesclaire too much space to work with as the Frenchmen picked up two rounds in a row, setting the score at 5-6.<br />  <br />  Switching up the pace, Cloud9 decided to play more towards the A bomb site, adding two more rounds to a total of 8 before G2 responded. Through a very risky play from the French side, a high reward was awarded as Cloud9 lost track of the clock, gifting G2 another round at 8-6.<br />  <br />  Kenny 'kennyS' Schrub managed to defend the A bomb site by mowing down three players, securing the seventh round for G2 and ending the half 8-7.<br />  <br />  <figure><img class="img" src="http://static.fragbite.se/stock/5f730d394a0c1919078f.jpg" alt="Kenny "><figcaption>Kenny "kennyS" Schrub played a major role in G2's defense</figcaption></figure><br />  Starting out the second half with a drive, the Frenchmen secured the pistol round after a great grenade from shox, dealing over 180 damage in total. Following up, there was no repetition of the previous half as G2 Esports quickly capitalized on the first three rounds.<br />  <br />  Tyler 'Skadoodle' Latham continued to display his individual skill as he imprinted his bullets in three G2 players, securing the ninth round for the American side.<br />  <br />  Getting closer and closer to victory, G2 Esports found themselves at 15-11.<br />  Cloud9 then found a glimpse of light as Stewie2k led his men through the last four rounds in the second half, racking up six kills in three rounds and securing the overtime play for the American side.<br />  <br />  Continuing to be lethal, Stewie2k secured two rounds on the CT side as he shut down the bomb sites with his AWP, a weapon not typical for him to hold (16-17).<br />  Tying it back to 17-17, the Frenchmen turned the events around yet again showing great holds from both KennyS and apEX.<br />  <br />  Going over as terrorists, G2 got the opportunity once again as they closed out the last two rounds in a great effort, settling the score at 19-17.<br />  <br />  <div class="match widget matchMedium matchResult"><a class="inside top" href="/cs/match/70552/g2-esports-vs-cloud9-2017-pgl-major-krakow-group-stage">

SK Gaming beat Cloud9 3-0 — defends the ESL One Cologne title

9 July 2017, 20:22

As ESL One Cologne 2017 comes to an end, the defending champions have done it once again. SK Gaming has returned for the second time and conquered Cologne. This time, the final battle was nothing like the previous.

SK Gaming starting out strong On the first map of the grand final, SK Gaming had an anticipated half on the terrorist side as they racked up ten rounds before the halftime break. On an upwards slope, Cloud9 found themselves winning the second pistol round as they set off to turn the game around. An impressive ace from Jake 'Stewie2K' Yip forced the Brazilians to take a timeout at 11-9. The timeout was later shown to be decisive.

<div class="defaultSection postContentSection sectionWithoutTitle"><div class="sectionContent">								<div class="content"><h3>SK Gaming starting out strong</h3> On the first map of the grand final, SK Gaming had an anticipated half on the terrorist side as they racked up ten rounds before the halftime break. On an upwards slope, Cloud9 found themselves winning the second pistol round as they set off to turn the game around. An impressive ace from Jake 'Stewie2K' Yip forced the Brazilians to take a timeout at 11-9. The timeout was later shown to be decisive. <br />  After the initial timeout, SK Gaming managed to collect themselves and overcome the pressure from the North American side as they closed out the game at 16-9.<br />  <br />  <br />  <h3>Cloud9 falls again, despite doing their homework</h3> With Cloud9 picking Train as their first map, there was no doubt that the American contestant had done some homework. By winning the first pistol round, Cloud9 set towards a somewhat easy run as they closed out the first half at 10-5.<br />  The pressure didn't arise until the second pistol round. The second ace of the game came as Fernando "Fer" Alvarenga demolished the Cloud9 side as they set on for a similar run as on Cobblestone. SK Gaming managed then to claim ten consecutive rounds and mark a 15-10 scoreline before the last interruption from Cloud9. After summoning two timeouts in a row, SK Gaming clinched the final round as they played an aggressive, yet traditional, round, ending the second map at 16-10.<br />  <br />  <figure><img class="img" src="http://static.fragbite.se/stock/0df0379e0501557fe233.jpg" alt="Cloud9 did their homework as terrorists on Train" /><figcaption>Cloud9 certainly did their homework as terrorists on Train</figcaption></figure><br />  <h3>Third time's a charm?</h3> On Inferno, it almost looked like the American side was getting comfortable with losing pistol rounds. As Cloud9 marked their second pistol round loss in a row, they gained momentum as the Brazilian side got demolished early on. The Americans claimed a total of nine rounds in a row as the defenders, before closing the half out, once again, 10-5. As anticipated, Cloud9 lost another pistol round as SK Gaming started to crawl back into the game. It wasn't until the scoreline of 11-11 that Cloud9 went for the last run of the series. Unfortunately, the third time came with no success and, like the previous maps, the Americans fell right on the verge of a comeback. Impressive plays by the Brazilians gave them another runway to cling on to the championship title for the second time in a row, ending the game at 16-14 after a dramatic turn of events during the late stages of the map.<br />  <br />  <div class="match"><img alt ="USA" title="USA" class="flag x4x3" src="https://dynamic.fragbite.com/flags/4x3/166.svg" /> Cloud9 vs. <img alt ="Brazil" title="Brazil" class="flag x4x3" src="https://dynamic.fragbite.com/flags/4x3/79.svg" /> SK Gaming<br />  <small>Cloud9: autimatic, n0thing, shroud, Skadoodle, Stewie2k<br />  SK: coldzera, FalleN, fer, felps, TACO</small><time><small>Tournament final • </small>0-3<br />  <small>9-16, 12-16, 14-16<br />  Cobblestone, Train, Inferno</small></time></div><br />  SK Gaming now stand as your ESL One Cologne 2017 champions after a 3-0 victory over Cloud9.

Cloud9 defeats SK Gaming in Subaru Invitational grand finals

16 May 2017, 13:57

Featuring the collective North American Counter-Strike: Global Offensive elite, Cloud9 were able to come out on top of the Subaru Invitational, as the squad defeated favorites SK Gaming in the grand finals.

North American fan favorites Cloud9 have secured their second tournament victory of 2017, as the squad took home the Subaru Invitational this past weekend. The team looked on-point throughout the entire playoffs, as Cloud9 didn't drop a single map on their way to claiming the 10,000 USD first prize.

<div class="defaultSection postContentSection sectionWithoutTitle"><div class="sectionContent">								<div class="content">North American fan favorites Cloud9 have secured their second tournament victory of 2017, as the squad took home the Subaru Invitational this past weekend. The team looked on-point throughout the entire playoffs, as Cloud9 didn't drop a single map on their way to claiming the 10,000 USD first prize.<br />  <br />  Consisting of eight teams, Cloud9's journey through the Subaru Invitational began with an incredibly convincing victory against NRG Esports. Dropping only twelve rounds in total across the two maps, Cloud9 faced much stiffer competition in the semifinals against Counter Logic Gaming.<br />  <br />  The recently resurgent North American line-up, which features Kenneth "koosta" Suen and Ricky "Rickeh" Mulholland, were able to put on a strong performance against Cloud9 on the two maps. Ultimately, Cloud9 persevered, and won both maps of the series, sending them to the grand finals.<br />  <br />  <h3>An even grand final</h3> Once in the grand finals, Cloud9 were up against their rivals SK Gaming. The Brazilian roster, which recently won the cs_summit, have stayed firmly at the top of North American CS:GO for over a year, which made them the overwhelming favorites in the confrontation. <br />  <br />  But despite their recent success, it was Cloud9 who ended up climbing out on top, as SK Gaming were unable to claim either map of the series. While the match was certainly even, Cloud9 were able to shut out the Brazilians on both Cobblestone and Train—giving the North American squad their second tournament victory in five months.<br />  <br />  <div class="match"><img alt ="Brazil" title="Brazil" class="flag x4x3" src="https://dynamic.fragbite.com/flags/4x3/79.svg" /> SK Gaming vs. <img alt ="USA" title="USA" class="flag x4x3" src="https://dynamic.fragbite.com/flags/4x3/166.svg" /> Cloud9<br />  <small>SK: coldzera, FalleN, felps, fer, TACO<br />  C9: autimatic, n0thing, shroud, Skadoodle, Stewie2k</small><time><small>Final • </small>0-2<br />  <small>12-16, 14-16<br />  Cobblestone, Train</small></time></div></div>

iBUYPOWER Invitational Spring 2017 was played this weekend, where eight top teams from North America battled for the prize pool of 16 000 dollars. The tournament featured a single-elimination bracket with all matches being played in a best of three format.
