The Mars Cup (for SCII) was a precious win! 
SF joined force with KR and took the Professional Super Cup of TeSL in the 5th year.
Before winning these two champions in the 5th year, Gama Bears has had its rough time in the past. From putting all the hearts and souls into running eSports industry to earning the notable status now and having people discuss it. Gama Bears has been through all! Now let’s relive those precious moments before their success.
Stand up Where You Fall
Since the first and second year of TeSL, Gama Bears had fallen behind their arch enemy, Wayi Spider. Even though Gama Bears finally took the overall champion in the 3rd year, the newly added competing item, SCII in the 4th year set Gama Bears back into maladjustment. They didn’t do well on this new item and the originally advantageous item, S&K also fell back to 3rd. Their dream of taking the crown two years in a roll was crashed. The 4th year was a heavy blow for Gama Bears.

This year, the 5th year, Gama Bears didn’t win the championship in the first and second season but they didn’t give up. In the runner up vs. third place round, they defeated Thermaltake Apollos and gained the chance to the grand final. The beat Wayi Spider in the final and successfully turned the tables!
In the SCII item, under the guide and effort of Sen, last year’s talent pick, Gama Bears came to the first in the second half season and subsequently defeated Wayi Spider in the grand final. In the S&K item, the couch and contestants spent a lot of time researching on the profiles of both our team and the enemy’s. Finally they decided to proceed with some brave yet creative attempts, for example, placing team leader, Sakugetsui in the role of back-up support. Perhaps these changes caused Gama Bears to lose points in the quarter final, however the final result proved that it was the right move. The grand final’s 4:0 victory was the best proof!

eSports Development: Discouraging Past
Gama Bears’s manager, Alan Chang mentioned that since the first year of eSports, the competition could only be held in the internet café with a few audiences there. Now, eSports competition has its live show, Alan thinks that it is the result of the strong conviction. From no stage to today’s glory, eSports shows its promising future. Having been through the discouraging past, now looking back to the tough time, it was actually a bit sentimental.
We know in addition to facing the challenging big environment, Gama Bears also has to constantly seek improvement and growth. The accumulated scale and strength would be the real harvest. At the meantime, we hope to secure bigger supporting audience and more sponsors. These are the goals for Gama Bears to remain its fierce momentum and the feedbacks they hope for the most from the society. Winning double champions in the 5th year of TeSL, Gama Bears won’t be complacent because the road ahead is long one!
