Incoming shitty photos. FUCK I need to learn photo taking class.
So I was invited to the CJ Entus. By who and where? I won't say for privacy reasons. Why? Because the person wanted to invite me, and all permissions were granted (coaches ok'd the visit).
The group of people (my friend, my brother, and I) were in front of the place, but I was too afraid to ring the bell because if its too loud, it would've disturbed the players. We waited until the person picked up the phone and opened the door for us.
Turns out, the place is smaller than I have imagined. The person also explained that CJ Entus's place is smaller than some other practice houses such as SKT and KT.
The first thing that we saw (Which I don't have a picture of) was a giant map of Neo Requiem. The maps can be changed so that players can study the maps. Or at least they used to: the maps were pretty old, my friend and my brother only recognized Python.
The talk with the sports marketing guy was interesting; though he wasn't part of the team itself, he dealt with many sports and e-sports marketing within CJ, and helped CJ Entus since the beginning. So I guess he's semi-part of the team.
After that we took a tour of the gaming house. Nothing too interesting besides computers and trophies.
ROFL
VERY blurry picture of Movie's 2nd place trophy
A-Team practice area
After that we visited the B-Team practice area, not too far away from the A-Team area. As soon as we entered, we realized that most of the area was used for bunk beds, and the practice area was smaller compared to A-Team (sort of like in a bedroom). Special forces + 4 B-Team players were in there. Since they were not prepping for a huge match, they all said hi (and that was it).
Blurry B-Team entrance
Next, we visited the A-Team sleeping area. More like a college dorm. Key thing is, good players sleep in personal beds in 2 rooms, others sleep on bunk beds (probs 4 people on bunk beds?)
DAT COW!!!
Room for captain and best players in team
Interesting note: Living room area has a Television and lots of books on the back, including SlayerS_BoxeR's book.
And then we came back to the kitchen next to A-Team practice area. Since CJ is prepping for SPL, I knew that chances of me meeting the players were slim, and I was right. Though the person who invited me tried to make this happen, I had to wait about 3~4 hours in the area till the players were on break. Not happening, so we took couple of more photos and said goodbye. The people were very friendly (including the coaches), and I had a very good time at the practice house.
xbox360 + Virtua Fighter 5 underneath the Television. NO SSFIV?
For those interested, Effort IS practicing at the moment with the team
Sup BCA?
I have few more pictures to add, but that will come later (Gifts that I got while I was there... unexpected, and my friends got one too. Thank you for giving gifts to my friend and my brother, which I really didn't expect!)
If you have any questions I'll answer them.
