On Friday, popular eSports organization Cloud 9 announced on their site that they have acquired the Halo team formerly known as Triggers Pound. This news comes as a satisfying surprise to many fans and it puts the organization in a position to be represented at the Halo World Championship.
This team consists of Assault, Hysteria, Cloud, and Danoxide. They were able to clinch a spot in the Halo World Championship by beating both OpTic Gaming and Dream Team in pool play at the NA Regional Finals. This is a very new team that has been a pretty big surprise to a lot of other teams in recent weeks.
For those of you who don’t know, Cloud 9 has been involved with Halo since HCS Season 1. They have had a lot of ups and downs and hope that with this new team they can find some success at the Halo World Championship. It is unclear as to whether or not C9 is on a long term contract with this team or if they are picking them up for one event.
