Last week three British teams were listed in the GotFrag European rankings for the first time in history. Meet Your Makers took the top spot, Dignitas sat admirably in third, and EXABYTE finished tenth. The UK Call of Duty scene is at a high point and beginning to reflect a depth of talent nobody could have guessed at. In the space of a few short months, the nation has regained hope.
It wasn't so long ago that Dignitas was the sole British representative in the top ten, just clinging on to tenth after another failure at OOF2. MYM, then known as TLR, occasionally showed the potential to hang with better teams, as did Reason, but there was not a single British team who could challenge TEK9, Serious et al at their peak. Dignitas had been in freefall for what seemed like years and their constant roster changes sucked up any emerging UK talent before it had the chance to flourish elsewhere.
Slowly but surely, however, both Dignitas and the other British teams beneath them have turned things around. The addition of Bas "SKO" Dirks was the key for Dignitas. And while Dignitas was adding a key player, TLR adapted quickly to Call of Duty 4, placing second at CDC4 and taking home €2,000. Meanwhile the likes of 4Kings, EXABYTE and Audacity also began to emerge in the international scene. For some in the UK scene, it was a return to the good old days.
