The German cites that he lacks the time to train with the team as well as fit in as reasons for his departure.

Statement from Angelo "neNo-" Caula Gonzales:
-"I'm very sad about it but I guess it's the best decision for the team and myself that I leave the clan OK.Nirvana. I had a nice time there, I learned a lot and had great fun. I don't have the time to play as much as they want to, I work a lot and hey, it's Summer you know. The problem is that we really needed better team play and I couldn't really fit in. I wish them the best of luck and have fun to the new player, enjoy playing there! Thanks for the time in OK.Nirvana, it was a short but cool time, see ya!"

Now that OK.Nirvana.int is down to just four players, who will be the fifth in the future?

Current OK.Nirvana roster:
Denmark Andreas "Ducky" Søgaard
United States Clinton "Fear" Loomis
Romania Adrian "S0ny" Sebastian
Croatia Dominik "Lacoste" Stipic

The Razer Global Challenge has finally come to an end after two months of group stages and one month since the playoffs first began. GosuGamers is proud to bring you our final round of predictions for the final weekend of this epic online tournament brought to you by DotA-League and Razer. The 3rd place match takes place at 15:00CET and the grand finals at 18:00CET.

Last week:
NWO > yB (3-0)
Nv.cn > MYM (3-2)

What a week. While the series between NWO and youBoat was a quiet three game affair, the MYM vs Nv.cn series that followed was a precedent-setting five-and-a-half game epic -- a Homeric series that produced some truly great games for those who watched the replays, and a sordid and urgent topic of discussion for the opinionated readers of GG.net.

While surely no fan of DotA could be pleased with the intrigue that plagued the MYM/Nv.cn series, the two teams in the middle of it all should be commended for their professionalism and the exceptionally high level of DotA they put out on display in spite of everything. GosuGamers would like also to commend DotA-League for their handling of such a tough situation and the expert work they’ve done to provide the community with some truly great games on as level a playing field as we’ve ever had for an online competition.

Congratulations to NWO and Nv.cn for making it to the finals (these teams really did beat, convincingly, some of the best teams in the world to get to where they are now); to youBoat and MYM for getting as far as they have and showing that they’re at least better than the rest of the also-rans – better luck next time boys.]]> rajabi_m1362@yahoo.com (Pr!nCe ) New World of Warcraft Site Is Live! images/news-pics/243_1289171897.jpg
New WoW Website Up And Running

A few weeks ago, Blizzard announced that they would be launching a new WoW website (including new forums) to begin the transition to the upcoming expansion.
The new WoW community website is now functional and running. With the impending arrival of Deathwing, Blizzard announced a few weeks ago the launch of the new website to be sometime during the month of November. The time has arrived and the new World of Warcraft website is here.

The new community site includes distinct features not present in the older one. Here is a list of the features both new and re-done:
New design, new look and, if you are logged into your Battle.net account, a quick rundown of the activity of your primary character (you may switch if you want)

An upcoming game guide that has not been implemented yet, including a link to Warcraft lore.

A community page with announcements of new community services such as reforging as well as updates on the eSports scene, fan-art, contests, and more.

A media page that includes all of the offical Blizzard-released Cataclysm videos, screenshots, and more.

New forums with a new refurbished look

Clicking on your character name (if you have a valid Blizzard account and you are logged in) will automatically send you to the World of Warcraft Armory page with your character information, including Achievements, Gear, Glyphs, Talents, and more

If you are in a guild, you will be taken to your guilds World of Warcraft Armory page by clicking on your guilds name right below your characters name in the upper-right corner of the page.]]> rajabi_m1362@yahoo.com (Pr!nCe ) DotA 6.69c to fix important bugs out now images/news-pics/242_1288992990.jpg
