In their ongoing bid to build global pro gaming teams, Vitriolic Gaming<\/a> has partnered up with Germany-based Type to buff their StarCraft II roster of professional gamers.<\/p>\n

Though UK-based, Vitriolic has quite a presence here in South Africa, with Pieter Venter heading up operations on SA soil – you might recall their push to get BarCraft up and at ’em during the rAge festivities last year.<\/p>\n

The partnership with Type means there’s a new pro StarCraft II team (operating under Type.Vitriolic) to take on the tough competition in international tournaments; included in the partnership deal is vTypeReaL, who was the only player to not lose any of the StarCraft II matches on day 1 of TakeTV’s Homestory Cup.<\/p>\n

Basically this means good things for Vitriolic, which in turn means good things for eSports development in South Africa and in general.<\/p>\n

Here’s the roster of players who Vetriolic describes as an “awesome bunch of players, [with] amazing skill and [who are] most of all hardworking and dedicated”<\/p>\n
