ESEA have also announced Robby "bLacKpoisoN" Da Loca, returning from his adventures in Europe, as South Africa's community manager. He had released a following statement:
“
This is a very special moment for the South African community as we are excited to see the involvement of a very reputable organization. With ESEA coming to South Africa, we will be a step closer to the international stage. The infrastructure in South Africa has greatly improved over the last few years and I feel that now would be the perfect time to step into the South African scene.”
The ESEA Product Manager, Brett Sheffield, also released a statement:
“
South Africa has long been hungry for Counter-Strike, and even saw some success in the early days of CS:GO. Since then, the community has continued to grow but hasn't been given the proper resources to make a true impact. With this launch, and the inclusion of South Africa in our Global Challenge LAN, we are excited to see what the region can accomplish with proper support.”
