Infinity Gaming and Latest and Greatest (LaG) Gaming are happy to announce a new partnership between their Starcraft II teams - InfLaG.TT. (Both Infinite Lag and Lagfinity were ruled out early on)
With solid leadership on both sides, we hope to present a new and formidable team to the Starcraft II community. Infinity and LaG decided to join forces when management on both sides recognized how the unique advantages of both communities could complement and bolster a united team.
Both sides hope to tap into a level of professionalism and success that neither side has reached thus far. Our joint goal will be to continue in the tradition of great teams to come before either of our organizations and to increase the recognition and expansion of eSports around the world.

---LAN ETS 2011 - Second Place (shared with Root's Fayth)
(P) CuHz
---SteelSeries Fragged Nation - Second Place

---StarCraft II Go4SC2 IEM Kiev Championship - Top 6

Both management teams would like to thank and credit coL.MVP for establishing a model for this type of professional arrangement.
About Infinity Gaming
Infinity Gaming Pro is the Starcraft II team representing the greater Infinity Gaming community. Infinity Gaming was founded in January 2011 under the name Clan Infinity. Clan Infinity has since expanded greatly - from Infinity Events (formerly CiG Tournaments), Infinity EU and its associated teams.
Infinity Gaming Pro represents the best that Infinity has to offer. Our players have participated at many MLG events in the United States and we hope to expand our repertoire to include more LAN and online events.
Infinity Gaming is a diverse Starcraft II, League of Legends and soon Diablo III community. In addition to the teams, Infinity has a casting department, a paid coaching program and the general Clan community. You can check out all Infinity has to offer at http://infgaming.net.
About LaG.TT
Latest and Greatest GaminG [LaG] was established in 2007 by a small group of Latin American Warcraft 3 players with the mission of not only winning in tournaments and leagues, but to truly love the game they played. The team began as Latin American Gaming [LaG], and was comprised mainly of players from Southern and Central America. Over the years the team expanded rapidly to include many international players who shared our founding philosophy of professional-level competition but in an a fun and enjoyable manner. Because we are now a truly global team, with players not only from Latin America, but the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, India, Greece, Finland, Holland, Denmark, Romania and Bulgaria, we changed our name to Latest and Greatest GaminG [LaG].
Not only have our players achieved some remarkable feats at national events but they have also represented the team and their nations at international events like WCG and Blizzcon. LaG's Warcraft 3 team has grown into one of the top teams in the world being represented at most of the top international events.
With the release of Starcraft 2, LaG immediately started a team realizing this will be the game of the future. Although Starcraft 2 has only recently been released we have already set up a stable team with a lot of potential, who are beginning to show their talent more and more with each passing day. Several of our players have won LANs, been featured is Blizzard's lists of top 200 players, and beaten well known players around the globe.

But! good luck to the partnership~

Neither teams have ever been good, why not just disband and pour your resources into something useful? I'm very disappointed in this announcement, I would have expected more out of two mediocre teams.

not every team is a top tier team. you're not very familiar with esports are you?
|
FIrst of all, best of luck to you guys. I have a question regarding the announcement though.
Both management teams would like to thank and credit coL.MVP for establishing a model for this type of professional arrangement.
Can anyone care to expand on how this merger is anything like relationship between coL.MVP?
Is there sponsorship support between players in each team? Looking at the player pool I don't even see anyone noteworthy besides Faith (who doesn't take this game seriously anyways).

It was inspired by that arrangement - an agreement and partnership where both sides get to retain their own character. It was more a comment on the logistics of the arrangement than trying to equate anything with those teams.
When we were working things out, we studied that relationship to the extent that it seemed like we almost needed to "cite our sources."
I hope that clears it up what was meant by that

Wow, didn't notice the similarity. Swoops and all
It's actually a combination of the two independent logos:

What does this mean? Where are "macro players" rated on TL?

Yay gogo CuHz and Azndude, Protoss players from California w00t

Hmm good to see lizard is still in lag
Having a known hacker of several years (alexcmoi) is probably not a good look for your team though.

Thanks for everyone's support!
You guys remind us why running and organizing a Starcraft II community is so rewarding – the remarkably supportive and engaged community.
And for the members of the community with reservations, we hope that you will give us the opportunity to attempt to change your opinion

does this mean whitera is in this team also? since he is sponsored by tt-esports or is that something else?
|
lol, hardly noteworthy then isn't it? GL guys, Let's cw~!

This is a very cool announcement and I'm personally excited to see how Infinity and LaG.TT progress with this new partnerhsip.

this is awesome! lag.tt and infinity gaming fighting!

Never thought when Infinity started anything would come out of it other than a bunch of guys playing starcraft together. Still can't believe the the things that we do. Infinity hwaiting!
|
why do you guys have that fake oGsMC on your roster? lol.....
|
And you chose to include that in your description why? It makes you sound desperate and makes people respect him less as a player.
Just follow the same general rules you're supposed to when you make a resume and don't include stupid "achievements". If it makes you say "ahha" it doesn't really belong anywhere.

Faith has so many other achievements; but with that thread and with those players listed in that list; our team only wanted to list 2-3 achievements and we felt that was a great one.

He was booted off the team for hacking months ago. Anyways, gl guys on the merger. I can't wait til I see you in action. One question though, will you guys be playing in cws/leagues together because you are listed as two separate teams in the NASTL qualifiers. It might be because you guys signed up before the deal was finished, but I was just curious.

Isn't LagTT that one team filled with lously master players that are terribly BM? Might have to check my reps but I dont believe a single one even bothered messaging with something that wasn't inflamitory...

u might be refering to ex players that got kicked out for the same reason ( bming ) sorry if u had a bad experience with ppl using our tag even tho they are not in the team anymore, it sux that there is not way to change nicks in bnet since most of them used their name change x.X

hopefully this has changed though. :o

hi adrian/kawaii, i posted in the LighT thread and am glad you guys are doin so well! o/
i can assure you LaG.TT has never been BM'd since I joined and I have enforced it in our team to not be BM or immature. It might be a mistake, but I have never seen Lizard Bm b4, i know players in the pst of LaG.TT has been BM tho but they have been kicked due to that reason
|
you know who was the former BM king on Lag.TT? EzalB, o man he flamed me so hard, infact one time i said gl hf and he told me to fuck off and that i was on his ignore list before I even said anything. That being said Lag.TT is a very respectable organization now, and i wish them good luck!

ya ezalb is 13 or 14 always bm he got kicked as well but he always said that " he left " so w/e sorry if u had to encounter him with our tag he is not longer with us

Terrific merger, and we are definitely going to see some impressive performances from the InfLaGTT players in 2012!

same here been bm'd by Cuhz on ladder numerous times but bm is unavoidable. anyways good luck to the team.

I'm a former WC3 manager/league admin and also co-founder of the original LAG gaming. I quit it because I hated the direction it was going, and many people dislike LaGTT because of the place it ended up. LizarD has also been a good guy and it was always nice working with him (in LAG, and as a league administrator his team was participating in, AND as a competing team as I also managed another team aside from that). He doesn't BM, although he can be defensive at times, it's respectable.
LaGTT has changed from what LAG used to be when I quit. Part of the staff that I thought was shit and shouldn't be there is already gone, the BM players that I didn't like in the team are gone, and the organization has undergone nice changes. I think people should respect the team as it is now, and not hold any grudge to how it was before.
I with the best of luck to infLaG.TT!
On a side note though, I never liked merging clan tags like that z.z I don't think it looks good at all lol. Looks sloppy.

Aren't you the Energizer from WC3? German player I think right? I talked to you on ICQ after you left your team and you weren't exactly "professional" in terms of communication. Everyone is bad mannered to a point, but LaGTT is (at least at the moment) a respectable team.
Edit: If you're not then nvm this ;D

we lost our first game, then i took out dormain(t) nsync(p) and illusion(t) then lost a close game to hawk(z) then yata(p) took out hawk. lag won 4-2

These guys need to kick Phierz off the roster, he's a BM douche that scams honest people out of their money.

I don't have anything against LagTT but phiers needs to go, that guy scams people out of their money after losing bet matches
|
