    X3 goes inactive

    As said in their irc channel, "X3 is going inactive from online CS and we are parting ways for now". Many could see this coming, and my recent article X3 -- Fall from Grace? was almost a prophet to this event. Despite their recent RGL-expert championship win, it is speculated that their loss to The Speakeasy Offensive (TSO) tonight of 19-5 is what prompted this. While it is assumed that X3 is still together, there are no promises as to whether the world famous clan will show up at this summer's CPL.



    Given that I've been in this community a long while, I must comment that X3 has almost always held that #1 spot with an iron like grip. It's my prediction, however, that X3 is not down-and-out -- after all, former world-reknowned clan CK3 recently made a return and are currently competing in CAL-Main. It saddens me to see X3 do this, but hopefully they'll get their act together and eventually return stronger than ever.



    Update: They're only going inactive online, so we will see them at the CPL. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

    in a community where clans break up on a daily basis and new ones are formed every minute, it's a hell of a blow for the #1 clan in north america to suddenly pack up shop.

      im sure they will come back, everything needs to take a rest now and then, once you reach that point of exhaustion you need to take it easy for a bit, when youc ome back it will feel great. i think its a good idea for them to chill for a bit and i expect to see either X3 or CK3 do somehting big again in the future

        I kind of have a feeling (well, not feeling, more of a hope) that some of the core members that were in ck3 who formed x3 will return to ck3...it'd be nice to see an "empire" of the past return.

                        Maybe all of their loses were a foreshadowing of this, but then again, maybe they are making everyone think they are doing bad, but yet they are trainning, and they will take CPL by storm, i mean thats a possiblity. I do have to agree though that this is a huge blow to the CS community, the #1 clan just getting up and going leaves it kind of empty, granted that NiP will fill the spot i don't think that it will be the same with out the big X3 there, but i have no fear that either X3 will return or a new clan will arise to take their place.

                          What? Huge blow to the community my ass. We did just fine before X3 and we'll be just fine without them, you brown-nosing sack of shit.

                            lol, why is everyone saying its a shame they have "taken a break" they didnt do anything for the community, so why would i care, and again again people say "x3 #1" when they aint, NiP are #1 they've beet them twice i think at a LAN, this shows they are clearly better.



                            If X3 were trying to be pro gamers, they would never have made it because when they lose they just face it, and dont change there mistakes, to be a pro, u train, practice, some thing goes wrong u dont just pack ur bags and aspect defeat, u work out wat went wrong and change that.



                            If Pele (the footballer) didnt score a goal for 3 games, do u think he would of just aspected that hes not the best footballer ever, of course not, he'd practice and work with his coachs and come back to form.



                            X3 will never make it pro now, there alot more clans that show more skill and dedication than them.
