UK esports organisation Endpoint have been making headlines lately, with their new 2FA bot being built, their streamer Poopernoodle being banned on Twitch for drawing a cartoon frog with an impossibly long penis, and now they’ve won Monsters Reloaded.
This is a Counter-Strike CS2 tournament, the LAN finals of which took place in Istanbul, Turkey, this evening.
Endpoint beat Turkish side Eternal Fire Academy 3-0 in the grand final, after beating Divine Vendetta 2-1, and take home the $10,000 top prize.
Endpoint head coach Frøg said he was ‘so proud’ of the team, which for this event consisted of UK players MiGHTYMAX, Surreal, AZUWU, Hungarian sl3nd and Estonian swicher (who was standing in for Israeli HeavyGod, who was advised not to travel with the team following safety advice from the Israeli government).
The official Endpoint Twitter account also said: ‘Cooked the Turkey ready for Christmas’.
Endpoint Co-Owner Peter Thompson added: “Niiice, Tulpar Notebook UK Monsters Reloaded champions!
“It’s been an up and down year for CS with a rebuild in the middle, but it’s great to get a title win on a LAN stage at the end of the year.”
Endpoint made it through to the LAN finals after winning the Monsters Reloaded 2023 British Qualifier last month by beating Verdant 2-0 in the final.
The team also celebrated in what was a slightly unusual trophy lift moment, with MiGHTBYMAX being handed the trophy high in the air, meaning he was unable to properly lift it, before the team were showered in what was described by the casters as a blizzard of confetti.
UK broadcast talent Allan ‘Allan’ Hender and Harvey ‘Skriv’ Rodgers were on casting duties for the event.
The news also comes one week after K10 won the first UKIC CS LAN at Endpoint’s Sheffield HQ.
