X3O Professional Gaming is proud to announce the return of a Counter-Strike 1.6 team.

December 14th, 2007 – Rockville, MD – X3O Professional Gaming is proud to announce their return to Counter-Strike 1.6 with the acquisition of arguably the best team in the country. Formally of Team Turmoil, the new X3O team will fill a vital role in our plans for 2008. The roster is: Ediz "goodfornothing" Basol Matt "PaTyoJoN" Iantosca Derrick "impulsive" Truong Dan "mehLer" Mehler Jordan "n0thing" Gilbert Joe "perez" Perez (6th Man)

In addition to the players, Sahil Jain will join the X3O staff as a Marketing Consultant for X3O Professional Gaming.

"We are very excited about supporting a full time Counter-Strike 1.6 team again. With many events including ESWC 2008 World Finals being held on U.S. soil, I think the game is on the forefront of everyone's minds. The formal Turmoil had a great year in 2007, including finishing 3rd at the WCG U.S. Finals, competing at ESWC 2007, and just recently winning CEVO-Professional Season 7. They came to X3O looking for an organization that can represent them with the utmost professionalism and provide for their growing needs in 2008. We are happy to bring them on board and are looking forward to the year to come," said Nick Fitz.

You will be able to see the now X3O squad in action at Winter CPL 2007 as well as Kode5 in early 2008. Additional information including an updated Team X3O Section, player interviews, and more will be posted in the days to come after the X3O CS 1.6 Winter Tournament 2007.
