    Blight TF2 Reemerges, picks up Snooplicity

    Everett "rk-" Wells on Mon, 12/19/2011 1:22AM
    (ESEAnews) - Just when you thought it couldn't happen again, it did.

    The infamous Blight Gaming has been slowly rebuilding of late, recently launching a new Tumblr site (complete with spiffy new logo) to compensate for a compromised main site, as well as picking up the veteran CSS squad One-Eyed Zomblerz.

    Well, the infection is slowly spreading, as the ESEA TF2 Invite Snooplicity has changed flags, and have become the latest incarnation of the storied Blight TF2 franchise.

    Controversy or no, teams under the Blight tag have done well in past TF2 seasons, including multiple LAN showings, a few runners-up awards, and even a TF2 LAN Title for Blight.own in Season 6.

    With the new Blight TF2 out of the running for the Season 10 LAN, and the organization only reported to be providing the new squad with a server, there's as of yet no monetary shenanigans to report (trust me, I tried to find some), though we can only hope for next season.

    Best of luck to the newly-minted Blight TF2, as they wrap up their first season in ESEA TF2 Invite.

    glad to see a great organization come back to the scene. hopefully blight will trigger other organizations to pick up teams for games such as tf2 and such that were dropped a year or 2 ago. Good job Blight!

    do you KNOW who blight are?

    this will last about as long as zomblerz did under the blight tag (aka the minimum amount of time it took for them to change their name back..)

    I'm not sure if you haven't heard, but Zomblers dropped Blight because they didn't play their LAN fees..

    #5 We have actually paid their LAN fee's and they will be retagging blight next few days. We were not aware of the deadline for the Invite policy deposit when we were informed about it we paid it as quick as possible.

    lol you guys can flame all you want. but until you own an organization or help run one, you won't understand how things are. i haven't ran any organizations, but regardless, it's nice to see organizations step back into empty scenes. EG and coL dropped their TF2 teams a year or 2 ago, when most organizations did. blight is one of the few to return. and it's between the organization and the players they pick up to sport their name.

    Blight can hardly be considered an organization. Most organizations don't attempt to expand when they owe thousands in debt.

    At the end of the day, I'm pretty happy to see Blight back in the swing of things... for the entertainment purposes, if nothing else

    I wasn't going to post because we all know what kind of shit org this is. i love frogger's excuse about invite deposit policy and not knowing about it. DO YOU KNOW ESEA PUT THAT POLICY BECAUSE OF YOU AND BLIGHT?

    This guy still doesn't have a fucking clue. People usually forget if someone screws a team over once or maybe twice and they will be given a second chance.

    This org has had over 15 chances to prove themselves and everything have blown it. Can't esea make it so they aren't even to allowed to use their name in this league?

    you contradicted yourself in your first two sentences so why should anybody take your opinion? Its not up to the players and the team who they pick up, thats your biggest problem their. If the team isn't doing their job, its the league they play in to make sure these things don't happen again.

    Look at the NBA, NFL, and MLB. These are the biggest brands in each sport, such as ESEA when it comes to NA esports. The leagues themselves put the rules up for idiots like blight not to continue to ruin the experience for players.
