EFGaming was a professional gaming organization for Counter-Strike: Source, formed in December 2005 by former Check-Six (x6) / PowersGaming members. Considered by many as the top Counter-Strike: Source team in North America, they won many LAN tournaments, with most recent the "Ryu LAN Event", November 2006. In April 2008 most of EFGaming went to the San Francisco Optx of the Championship Gaming Series. The team was named after the daughter of one of the team's managers.[1] Matthew "Erd" Grover wrote a letter of resignation on their website in 2008, stating that they were not planning to continue EFGaming activities under that name.[2]
