4CL have been re-invited to participate in The Gaming Resorts LAN – the Gaming Paradise, scheduled to be held in Portorož, Slovenia, between September 10-12 – with their new roster including Per Anders “Pajkatt” Olsson. The team will take the final available spot and compete alongside Team Secret, Virtus.Pro, Ninjas in Pyjamas, compLexity Gaming, Monkey Freedom Fighters, Arcade.PowerRangers, and Golden Boys for the $50,000 prize pool in a resort setting.
In a surprising turn of events, 4CL have been confirmed as the last team to participate in the Gaming Paradise LAN, according announcement made on the Gaming Resorts Facebook page.
4CL were invited to the Slovenian LAN before, but then got their invite revoked, on August 25th. The decision was prompted by 4CL’s recent roster changes. Immediately after receiving their direct invite for the Gaming Paradise, 4 Clovers & Lepricon lost three players in just a matter of days: Wagamama and Vanskor walked away on August 19th, while w33haa parted ways with the team, in order to join Team Secret, on August 21st.
Now that 4 Clovers & Lepricon have finalized their new roster, they have been re-invited to the Gaming Paradise LAN.
