So, i decided to write a blog about how things are going with our DoD:s team.

As I haven’t written any blogs before I think I should start by giving a little introduction to who I am. So, my name is Joonas Järvinen, I am a 22 year old student from Vaasa. I am one of the founding members of RCTIC, which have been an interesting road this far and hopefuly it just gets better! And I am also leader of RCTIC DoD:S team. Our team has been in RCTIC for longest time, I think we joined RCTIC at march of 2009 or something like that so I think it is pretty respectable (as we really only have changed couple of players) time for a team involved in eSports where people join and quit organizations for like two months.

ESL

Yeah, that’s right! Our very own Day of Defeat: Source team have been taking a part in ESL’s Major Series Season V. They managed to make it throught of groupstage into the playoffs and in the end, they placed 4th!

On first round of playoffs they faced FirstFrag, who sent our team to lower brackets. There our boys first met team named Satan666 and unfortunately our team lost that match too which ment that our boys took 4th place in this season’s playoffs. But overall, it’s really great placement so congrats for our DoD:S team!
