CheckSix, with a storied history in eSports, and the newly emerging VPGamers are proud to announce a merger of two top North American teams that will strive to reach the forefront of the North American competitive scene. Check Six Gaming has been a fixture of the competitive gaming scene since its founding by Rich Howard in 2003. VPGamers' professional Starcraft 2 team was founded in early 2011 with such notable pickups as PainUser, ChAnCe, and Fargo.
Check Six's, Curt Carter, welcomes VPGamers, stating:
There could not be a better fit for CheckSix than VP. Their dedication, hard work and skill has become a staple of the community and we are very happy to have them as a part of our team. With this announcement, we would also like to welcome VP owner Michael Starr on to our team of directors as well. We are sure he will be just as beneficial to CheckSix as he was to VP. We hope you continue to support both teams in this new venture.
VPGamers’ Team Owner/Manager, Michael Starr, had this to say:
From myself and the players on VP, we are extremely excited to be working with such a great organization as CheckSix. The management and players are all great people to work with and are recognized for their talent, hard work and values that flow into exactly what our team believes in and continues to strive for. We await the start of this new endeavor and can't wait to produce the results the community deserves. Thank you to everyone who supported VPGamers and I trust you will continue to give the great support to our new home. Go CheckSix!
Check Six will retain its current Starcraft 2 roster, while VP will be bringing PainUser, ChAnCe, Fargo, HDStarcraft, Jemag, Syckness, Infused, Anthorn, and Suppy to the table in what is sure to be one of the strongest teams in North America. As usual, this merger would not be possible without the help of amazing support from our sponsors: TTeSports, Puretrak, and Gamers Uniform.

Why are teams always making themselves sound better than they are. Example
"announce a merger of two top North American teams "
I laughed at that.

Check Six and VP are two of the top NA based teams... you must not follow the NA teams very much bud...
Wow, sick news. Two of the most underrated NA teams merging. Alot of good news in ESPORTS going on right now.
Best of luck with the team.
