The “One Game Agency” Pit tournament consists of three separate double elimination tournaments, one for each of the three main regions, with the European and Latin American competitions kicking off last week. The next playday was set to be tonight, July 4th, with PENTA Sports vs Mock-it Esports and Millenium vs Team Vitality however, due to conflicts with the Paris Major Open Qualifier Semi-Finals, Team Vitality has withdrawn to be replaced by the British team Method.

Method, with the roster of TankNinjaz, Jugger, Meadzzz, Kaktus, Kendrew, Noera and Nouda (their coach) has competed in a number of competitions including Season 7 of Challenger League in which they finished in 3rd in a very difficult Group B and the current season of the European Cyber-athletic Championship Series (CCS) in which they currently rank in 3rd place. These results, however, was with TangyD on the team who recently left to join T3H eSports and has been replaced by Noera, a player with much less experience at these higher levels.

This team will be going into the competition as the absolute underdogs as the lowest seeded team participating in any of the OGA Pit tournaments with a difficult opening game against Millenium, the second seed team in Europe. We spoke with Meadzzz about the team’s thoughts as they enter the tournament:
Can you tell us a bit about your team, for instance how the players came together and what your current roles are?
This is a fairly last minute announcement, have you had any chance to prepare for the tournament?
Your first game is against Millenium, how confident are you going into it?
And, finally, what's your team’s goals for this tournament?
The team they are replacing, Team Vitality, will be playing at 6PM tonight (CEST) in the Paris Major Open Qualifier Semi-Final against another British team, i don’t know. Here they aim to qualify for the Paris Major this August and, ultimately, to take the Major’s title to France.
