Grand Finale – Main Tournament Page >> Teams
 The core of the local Gears community is relatively small but very close. Almost everyone knows each other as we play with and against each other week in and week out.
SA Gears players have been through a lot, going from no servers to local servers back to no servers and now connecting (if you can) to international servers. Times have been tough but when the call went out for the tournament, slots filled up very quickly so much so that our original (modest) target of 8 teams filled up in the first week of February. We’ve since decided that we couldn’t deny teams the chance to participate and so we extended our limit and now have a total of 11 teams in the tournament which is an excellent showing of support for a game that is supposedly dead?? First on the sign up sheet (after CMR of course) was the Fallen Lobotomisers commonly known as FLS (Legion & Betrayal). Their two teams have been dominating local gears since their debut in the Wingman Challenge back in GOW2 and have finished 1st and 3rd in both of the previous GOW3 tournaments, they’re definitely the clan to beat. Then we have RipCordz who are the youngest team in the tournament and the team I am proud to say have grown the most since their chaotic beginnings. Their excitement and lack of organisation may have gotten the better of them in their competitive debut in the DGL Cup but they caused quite a stir when they finished runners up in the zaKOTH tournament, if they can keep their heads they are definitely a team to watch. GroundZero are one of the oldest and loyalest Gears clans out there evidenced by how when the tournament was announced they were on the verge of disbandment but within a week they pulled themselves together and if any of the recent friendly results are anything to go by they are still a force to be reckoned with. Johnny Can’t Swim, the Bench Warmers and The Button Mashers may not be household names as teams but everybody will know the players. All members have been regulars in the Gears Wednesday community evenings and/or if you’ve ever been looking for somebody to fill a lobby. They’re always game to jam some Gears for fun and they’ll show in the tournament that they can get down to business as well.  Clan comradery And last but not least, a team that loves to make an entrance sneaking in just before the deadline closed we have everybodies favorite drunk gamers – OAP; the oldest (in both xbox and real life years) Gears Clan. |
