hey boys and girls. In order to introduce you to the top teams of Shootmania : Storm game, we decided to meet some of the player of these organisations. Some answered, some didn't. But Kowa answered, more than we expected, and that's the real important thing here for you readers.

We decided to start with a Dignitas member because of their recent ESL GamesCom qualification. Indeed, during the third ESL Qualifications Cups, they showed a perfect cold blooded skill, that permish their team to beat every opponents...Next step will be GamesCom, where they will face all the top teams! So...The question " Who is Kowa " has an answer now, and your appetite of knowledge can now be satisfied! Let's go!
