First and foremost, congrats are in order for our BF3 team making it into the Immunity hosted CG invitational competition. For those in the team keep an eye out on the BF3 section of the forums to see who we believe are the core team members who will be playing a bigger role in the comp. Huge thanks to all those that are showing up and scrimming some of the hardest teams straight out of game release, that is also extended even to our trial members and a few social members that we have.

Scrim work within the team has been great with Lg getting scrims at least three times a week and sometimes four. Big thanks to iM for scrimming us most of the time, other thanks for scrims go to Digital Ascension , Versus, Sequential Gaming, Emphatic Gaming,  Renegade, Tesla and Australian Universal Soldiers.

Now it's time to get serious about the BF3 competitions coming up starting with our first match in BF3 against MindFreak on Sunday night in the iM invite league on Grand Bazaar. It will be one of our biggest challenges in the competition, but we're all looking forward to it.

-Lg- recently played it's Grand Final against Exile 5 in the CyberGamer 8 v 8 Open BC2 Ladder.  Winning the repair tool fight we selected Atacama desert as our map and took down x5 146:0.  x5 chose Arica Harbour in reply.  We won the first round with 114 tickets and thought we had it in the bag but a lapse in concentration cost us the round and stopped us from clinching the final then and there....x5 won the round with 140 tickets which forced us into a third map for the decider.

The map was White Pass, certainly no friend of ours and we went down 157:0 to x5.  No excuses for us though, we should have done alot better but the team will be much wiser for the experience for next time.  It was no small feat getting to the finals through the 40+ teams in ladder, let alone the grand final so we have come a long way as a team and we are quite pleased with the way we are developing.  Well done guys for an excellent finish to a very hard slog of a season.

Welcome to our newest member:  Cardio

Another Team Renegade import, Cardio is an ex BF2 player who, like most of us, has found himself playing BC2 because there is nothing else decent to play.   Cardio has proved himself to be a very capable infantry soldier during his trial, which was further emphasised by his quiet demeanour and can-do attitude.

With a stunning display of performance under pressure, Cardio was instrumental in a second round comeback during our recent final on GA, and helped us clinch victory over Carnage by 20 tickets.

A third year mechanical engineering student at the University of Adelaide, Cardio enjoys cycling and playing soccer when he's not gaming or studying.  He also has a slight American accent to all of us but he doesn't know where it came from :)  Watchout for your prawns if you invite to him to a BBQ because this boy from Fiji loves them!

Cardio now stands among us as a Legionnaire, and we are proud to have him here.
