Amid the stunning landscapes of Mauritius, a new kind of excitement is brewing—esports competition. Symbiosis Gaming, the embodiment of Mauritius' passion for Counterstrike: Global Offensive (CS:GO), is ready to make a mark in gaming history. Let's dive into the incredible journey of this Mauritian esports team, from their simple beginnings to their big moment on the international stage.
Symbiosis Gaming's Starting Point
Back in May 2018, MOTAY Darren, THOMAS Matthias, and LACAZE Mathieu came together to form Symbiosis Gaming. They shared a love for CS:GO and a dream of gaining recognition worldwide. They got close to a big opportunity when they were invited to the renowned Comic Con Africa 2018—an epic esports event organized by VS Gaming. But their excitement was short-lived due to financial challenges that prevented them from participating. Instead of giving up, this setback ignited a strong determination to prove their skills.
Ruling the Local and Southern African Scene
Despite the disappointment, they didn't back down. They focused on becoming the best CS:GO team in Mauritius since 2018. Their dedication didn't stop at home; they also dominated the online gaming scene in Southern Africa. This success paved the way for their journey to the next level of esports.
Path to the IESF World Esports Championship 2023
In 2023, Symbiosis Gaming faced a turning point that would become a remarkable chapter in their story. They defeated CS:GO teams from South Africa and Namibia, earning the top spot at the IESF World Esports Championship 2023: Southern Africa Qualifier. This victory not only secured their place in the global competition but also gave them the honor of representing Mauritius and the Southern African region.
Symbiosis Gaming's Dream Comes True
As the World Esports Championships in Romania approach, Symbiosis Gaming is on the verge of achieving their dream—to bring Mauritius onto the international CS:GO stage. Their journey is a tale of dedication, unity, and unwavering belief in their abilities. With tough opponents from Belgium, Poland, Guatemala, Sweden, and Australia awaiting them, Symbiosis Gaming is ready to shine and redefine their position in the esports world.
A Triumph Across Borders
Symbiosis Gaming's story is one of resilience and determination. From the stunning beaches of Mauritius to the grand arena in Romania, they've overcome challenges and proved their worth. As the CS:GO tournament unfolds from August 26th to September 3rd, all eyes will be on Symbiosis Gaming. They're not just competitors; they're the representatives of Mauritius' growing esports community and the thriving gaming scene of Southern Africa.
