Burbank, California, December 28th, 2012 – Counter Logic Gaming (CLG), one
of the world’s premier professional gaming organizations today announces a
sweeping array of changes forthcoming as the organization prepares for 2013,
Season 3, and beyond.

Partnership with GGWP Apparrel and Launch of new CLG Clothing Line

Today CLG is excited to announce its partnership with GGWP Apparel, a premier
eSports clothing line. GGWP Apparel will act as the official distribution
partner of all CLG clothing. CLG merchandise can now be found on the CLG
section of the GGWP Apparel website, or through the store link on the CLG
website.

In addition to this, CLG is preparing to launch its new clothing line for
2013. CLG’s Art Director, MaTTcom (creator of AstroNautilus and Pool Party
Ziggs) has come up with many new designs for the CLG line and now we need you
to help us decide which ones to print. A complete listing of the new designs
and poll for which ones will be made can be found here (LINK).

CLG Documentary

Since the end of the Riot’s Season 2 World Championships, the CLG
documentary has been in full schedule post production. After lots of hard
work, we are happy to release the second trailer for the documentary which
includes the final release of the full length feature.

CLG: The Season 2 Story Trailer (LINK)

The documentary will be free to anyone who wishes to view it, but we will
also be accepting donations here(LINK) to help recover the costs of producing
the film. The director of the film, Max “s0r3” Sims, will also be doing an
AMA on reddit the day of the documentary’s release.

CLG Premier Series

Along with the release of the CLG documentary, CLG is also excited to
announce the CLG Premier Series, a North American tournament produced by Well
Played Productions in coordination with CLG.

CLG Premier Series Trailer

As previously discussed (in this reddit thread), the CLG Premier Series (CPS)
will be a 16 team tournament with entrants decided by the North American 5v5
Premade Ladder. Teams have until Friday, January 18th at 11:59 PM PST to
climb the ladder in order to qualify for the tournament. The tournament will
begin with group stages on Monday, January 21st with matches continuing until
the tournament concludes on Sunday, January 27th. CLG will be donating the
initial prize pool of $10,000 but all future installments of the tournament
series will be dependent on revenue generated through viewership and
sponsorship revenue generated by each of the series respective previous
installment. All revenues will be made public and all proceeds derived from
the CPS will go towards funding future productions of the series so long as
it continues. You can find more information about the tournament at its
website, http://wellplayed.org/cps

CLG EU

Most regrettably, Counter Logic Gaming today announces that its brother team,
CLG EU, has elected to not re-sign with the organization when their contracts
expire at the end of December. While CLG gave its best efforts to retain the
team, in the end, it was not able to compete with the offerings of other
organizations.



“While I am sad to see CLG EU leave, I understand their position and the
wonderful opportunity that has been presented to them” said George “
HotshotGG” Georgallidis, Co-Founder and President of CLG. “In their time
with the organization, Snoopeh, Krepo, Yellowpete, Froggen, and Wickd have
proven themselves to be one of the most consistent and formidable teams in
the League of Legends professional scene. I am proud of what they have
accomplished; grateful for the value and honor they brought to CLG; thankful
for the time we spent together as teammates and friends at events, in Korea,
at the gaming house in California; and excited to see them continue to
develop and grow not only as players, but as people. Good luck in Season 3
and beyond!”

In their time with the organization, CLG EU earned 10 top 3 finishes
including wins at DreamHack Summer 2012, Lone Star Clash 2, and Corsair
Vengeance Cup. The team also placed 2nd in Azubu The Champions Summer 2012
and 3rd/4th in Riot’s Season 2 Finals.

CLG Black and Link115

Counter Logic Gaming today also announces the official disbandment of its
second North American team, CLG Black. Due to differences in aspirations of
members amongst the team, CLG Black has decided to disband.

“CLG Black was originally recruited as a practice partner to help develop
our team and eventually compete with the other top teams in North America”
 said Steve “Chauster” Chau, who plays the Jungle role on CLG. “While it
is unfortunate they can no longer remain together under the CLG banner, I
recognize great talent in them individually and know they will find success
on other competitive teams in the future.”

CLG would also like to announce however that Austin “Link115” Shin, CLG
Black’s former mid player, will be joining the main squad officially as an
alternate player and will be moving into the CLG house in Burbank with the
rest of the team.

CLG Prime/NA and Aphromoo

With no other teams retained under its banner, CLG Prime now officially
returns to the original Counter Logic Gaming name. In addition to this, CLG
is also excited to announce the addition of Zaqueri “Aphromoo” Black to the
CLG roster. Aphromoo will be the new starting support player for the team,
filling the role vacated by Locodoco.

“Time to get down to business,” said Aphromoo about joining CLG. “Being
given the opportunity to play support for CLG makes me a little giddy because
I will be able to play a role I am most comfortable in, coming from a healer
for seven years in World of Warcraft. I will be putting in hard work to
master support coming from playing AD carry so much, but with being under CLG
I will have the proper tools necessary in order to become the best support in
the world. I am happy!”

CLG Management

CLG is also undergoing some changes in its roster on the business end. Today
we announce the resignations of Helen “RealMomGG” Georgallidis as Chief
Executive Officer and Robert “CyberBob” Del Papa as Chief Operations
Officer. CLG has also promoted Kelby “SAYOCEAN” May to the role of General
Manager and brings on Mark “Garvey” Candella to serve as Director of
Business Development for the organization.

“As CLG prepares for Season 3 and beyond, I feel we stand before a new surge
in the popularity of eSports.” said George “HotshotGG” Georgallidis,
Co-Founder of CLG and Captain of CLG.  “Helen and Robert have both done
great jobs preparing the company to be poised to not only survive, but
flourish in the coming eSports climate.”

“CLG is well positioned for continued growth and profitability and now is
the time to hand things over,” said Helen “RealMomGG” Georgallidis. “I
wish to thank our sponsors, the people within the organization and our loyal
fans for their support and the unforgettable memories of the past year. I am
proud of the players and their commitment to excellence, their passion for
their profession, and their clear goals to try new things.  I look forward to
their continued success and achievements in 2013.”

“Working for Counter Logic Gaming has been a dream come true” said Robert “
CyberBob” Del Papa. “Though we had our growing pains, I believe that the
organization has proven itself to be one of the most successful names in
eSports. The players and the staff behind the scenes have worked so very hard
to delight our fans and elevate the legitimacy of eSports as a whole. I will
sincerely miss all of the players and staff, but it's time for me to move on.
I wish CLG the best of luck in the future, and I have tons of confidence that
the organization will continue to prove itself to be one of the best around.”


Ms. Georgallidis and Mr. Del Papa are relieved by Kelby “SAYOCEAN” May and
Mark “Garvey” Candella. Mr. May and Mr. Candella will be working in tandem
on all aspects of the organization in order to perform CLG’s management
needs, though each will have a primary set of responsibilities. Mr. May has
been promoted to General Manager and will focus on operations, financials,
and talent management/coaching. Mr. Candella joins the organization as its
Director of Business Development and will focus on sponsorships,
partnerships, and company relations. Mr. May and Mr. Candella join the
current executive management team of CTO/Co-Founder, Alexander “Vodoo"
Beutel and President/Co-Founder, Mr. Georgallidis.
