B2B without a sponsor, priori dead

Defending ESEA Invite champions Back2Back have dropped their organization and are now called Need Sponsor. Meanwhile, third place team priori featuring the likes of Derek "dboorN" Boorn has died.

ESEA Invite Season 11 has just two weeks of regular season online play left before the LAN finals are scheduled to take place in Dallas, TX on the weekend of June 29 with a prize purse of $19,600 up for grabs in Counter-Strike 1.6.

ESEA forces all sponsors or organinzations to deposit $500 for their team at the beginning of the season to help avoid teams getting scammed, and because of Back2Back's inability to do so, the defending champions featuring Braxton "swag" Pierce have decided to leave their organization.

Need Sponsor:

Brennan "ele1Nt" Webster
Jordan "n0thing" Gilbert
Kory "semphis" Friesen
Sean "sgares" Gares 
 Braxton "swag" Pierce 

If you're interested in sponsoring the former Back2Back team who are currently sitting at the top of ESEA Invite with a 12-0-0 record and a whopping 192-78 round difference, you can contact Kory "semphis" Friesen via e-mail at kory_friesen@yahoo.com.

Meanwhile, new team made for this season called priori had guaranteed themselves a playoff spot with a 9-4 record and looked good going into the finals, until Diablo 3 was released which apparently made Ricky "sLip" Cohen and Jeff "hero" Mettetal want to quit playing competitively.

priori:

Arjun "bN" Gill
Derek "dboorN" Boorn
Anthony "djibouti" Manosca
Jeff "hero" Mettetal

Due to ESEA's rosters already being locked, they are unable to add any more players to their roster. This means they would have to get either both Cohen and Mettetal back to activity, or one of them and use sixth member Jon "darkstarr" Gersdorf instead.
