Gamers Getting Drafted
The CAL Draft league for Counter-Strike is happening right now with coverage over at ShackES. It's a concept that has been attempted a couple of times before, but this feels like the first time that it might be successful. Over 1,300 people signed up to be drafted to one of 16 different teams. The entire intent being to get some equal distribuation of talent. As a competitor, I love the idea and do hope it's very successful and we perhaps even see LAN tournaments based on these squads. I just thought it was an interesting twist to the Counter-Strike scene. There are hundreds of people on irc as the event happens. Think this will be the hip new trend for the guys who love competition?
