Wire protection

Yes, we want a fair environment for our players and therefore counts from today: - VERSUS Match without ESL Wire: -30 Points!

The missing Wire Anti-Cheat penalty is live now, and we are figuring out whether we can or will retroactively distribute these penalties to all matches played so far in the current Warm-up season. We are also already working on the next steps in deterring players from avoiding playing with ESL Wire Anti-Cheat.

ESL, Movies & You!

Something we here at the ESL European Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 section have also been intrigued by are the some of the frags you and you're team have been able to pull off during your ESL matches. We've been taking a long hard look for videos not only which have great kills, but applaudable editing.

We have therefore picked out the following video in the hopes of inspiring some of you to create your own ESL match movies with the kills you've achieved whilst playing in your ESL matches.



This video features Orion.eSports players and they clearly show they are not lacking any skill in this game!

If you think you have what it takes to create something out of the ordinary with your skills both on and off the playing field, then why not send us your editing and you could see it in the next news post - maybe you get a few extra viewers!
