Besides working in fnatic and the legendary dutch organisation, DigitalMind I was also the Team Manager of this year's Counter-Strike team in the Electronic Nations Championships 2006 hosted by the ESL. It's hard to describe the feeling I felt in these months but I'm satisfied at all sides. The team, the support and most of all the campaign. Accepting the job but not without a decent goal. You can't do something good if you don't have a personal goal to reach.

"Combining the hardcore, experienced gamers with young aspirants who are full of potential to become one of the best CS nations was my goal."


Here's a small preview of the statement:
An important factor in the success of a team is to have an ideal communication with each other. The team and I chose to go for an All Star Flemish line-up, due to the language barriers, and hoped it'd be realized as the best choice we were able to do. However, the Walloon community reacted with nay saying towards the squad.

I accepted the job as Team Manager and knew what to expect. You can’t do right for everyone so I just tried to explain my point of view and hope all Belgian inhabitants would understand it. A few refused to but after this successful campaign I can’t say it was wrong to go for a Flemish line-up. Let’s go back to the start….

Because of that I wrote a small statement where I describe; my point of view on the job and how the players experienced the ups and downs. You can read the entire statement by clicking here.

Kind regards,

Nick Reys

Congrats, vgas, for putting Belgium on the eSports-map.
It must have been really hard, and appreciate all the efforts you've put into the team, but now it is time to rest and enjoy your holidays!
Take care ;)
