Sad to see another tournament that was important for the tier 2/3 scene go because of funding
It had the viewing numbers, I just wonder what could have been done to appeal more to companies to invest in esports (besides the TO going full marketing demon and making merch, etc)
IMPORTANT UPDATE REGARDING PARKEN CHALLENGER CHAMPIONSHIP
To all teams, players, partners, suppliers, talent, and members of the Counter-Strike community,
It is with great regret that we must announce that Parken Challenger Championship Series #9-16, as well as the Parken Stadium Master Finals, have been cancelled and will not take place.
This follows the decision by New Breed Agency ApS, the operating company behind the Parken Challenger Championship, to initiate bankruptcy proceedings.
Over the past several months, management, shareholders, and partners have worked extensively to secure additional funding and explore alternative solutions that could allow the company and its projects to continue operating. Unfortunately, despite these efforts, a viable solution could not be reached.
As a result, the company is no longer able to continue its operations or fulfil its future commitments, leaving no responsible alternative but to commence bankruptcy proceedings.
We fully recognize that this announcement will impact many people and organizations who have supported the project, including teams, players, partners, suppliers, and service providers. We are also aware that there are outstanding obligations connected to completed events and ongoing operations.
Following the initiation of bankruptcy proceedings, all creditor matters and outstanding claims will be handled in accordance with applicable bankruptcy legislation and under the supervision of the appointed bankruptcy estate.
We understand that this news will be disappointing and frustrating for many. We share that disappointment.
Additional information will be communicated directly to affected stakeholders as soon as it becomes available.
Thank you to every team, player, partner, supplier, broadcast talent, staff member, and fan who supported the project.

Comfortable communicating in English.
Feel free to reach out to me or [email protected] if there’s any interest.
RT's are appreciated
With so many in the scene downsizing their operations (Orgs and TOs alike) it is imperative that for the week standing of esports in general we don’t lose important and dedicated talent
HECCU IS LIKE THE PRIME EXAMPLE OF THAT, PEOPLE
The most challenging video that I've ever had to record
It's addresed to every single member of the @CounterStrike community:
- Fans
- Players
- Teams
- Collegues
- Tournament organisers
and others
This is a TLDR clip and the full version is on youtube

@SneakyBeakyTTV Sad to see you go from Heroic man, you are one of the first people I thought of when I hear about the org itself but if that means we might get to cast again 🤷♂️
