Playzone withdraw from EPS Nordic

The Swedish division of Playzone have opted to withdraw from ESL Pro Series Nordic, after it was known that the team would become inactive.

Yesterday we reported that cbteam were removed from the EPS Nordic league after receiving too many penalty points, and that all cbteam members would be locked to the team out the season. Following cbteam, Playzone have opted to withdraw themselves.

This decision comes after the team was put on ice for an unknown amount of time, as motivation and the lack of a fifth player played a major role. Playzone had gathered 29 penalty points, and according to ESL, 35 points results in a removal from the league.

Just as the cbteam case yesterday, all of Playzone's matches will be deleted, and the prize money from their matches will be redistributed to the remaining teams in the EPS Nordic league. All Playzone members will also be barred to the team for the remainder of the season.
