UMX-Gaming
UMX who? This could very well be the question to many going into the IEM5
World Championship. The Taiwanese team got a last minute invite to the
tournament, after TyLoo withdrew due to passport issues. To many UMX is
considered as a team with no chances of doing anything in Hannover, with very
few official matches, it is very true that what to expect is uncertain.
Congkai "Evant" Chen
Yanrui "Nitor" Liu
Yuzhong "Nevan" Zhang
Jiaheng "Kandinsky" Chen
Po-Hsun "Realment" Huang
Without their star
Every team has a star, some more than others. Common for all teams is that
they need their star to step up when they need it the most. A fact which adds
up to the slim chances for UMX in Hannover would be the team not having
Tzu-An "cedrik" Chen to carry them. The team’s AWP and the best player
decided to retire and leave Taiwan's finest.
cedrik - Former UMX star
Inexperienced
In 2010 UMX only attended one international event. Attending the MSI BEAT IT
finals in Beijing, the team played with a 6-man roster. First of all the team
was changing lineup every match, but also the team did not succeed in doing
much. Sure the team won three matches and took 12 rounds off fnatic and 10
off TyLoo, but in the long run, inexperienced is one of the few words that
describes the team.
Even in the Chinese qualifier, which they attended, the team finished third,
behind TyLoo and the Chinese mixteam GANK.
First match – 09:10CET Marc 2, vs. compLexity
Key to success – Success in this case would most likely be winning a match
or two, which still seems unlikely. There is nothing in particular indicating
that this team can advance from the group, where they will be up against
teams with a lot more experience and titles for that matter.
Exit scenario – It's in the cards that the group-stage will be end of the
road for the Taiwanese team. Not much more to add.

close to the European teams.
有提到CK，編者認為他是UMX之前最好的選手和狙擊手
可是卻被換掉了
