History:

The journey from H i V to i2D:

 

In late 2004, Lahore was dominated by teams HnR led by slipknot, JD and aXa, led by Baoo, a great player from Karachi. At the time, it seemed impossible to beat aXa.
A clan was born with 4 unknown players who set a target to beat aXa because they were the best. The clan was named H i V + (thank you, 'j', for the weird name). It consisted of sH@993r, j, vivid, Alcohol Fueled and Carnage. Alcohol and Vivid went inactive due to motivational problems and so SaSuKe and Lycan were brought in.
After a month, Lycan left and Hyper was recruited. For about 4 months, the team lost every match, every single match, until a minor tournament. It was March 2005 when H i V landed into the same pool as aXa.
H i V miraculously managed to defeat aXa and knock them out in the group stages of the tournament. Although HnR beat H i V in the semi-finals, it was a great feat and the team realized its potential..
At that critical juncture, sH@993r, our team captain suddenly left us and joined 2 members from HnR, C00Le and Painkiller, and owais and w33d. A sort of 'dream-team' was made.
Our team was dejected at this for we had no captain. At that time, a person I will respect forever, despite his horrific aim, rose up to lead us, DOT. SaSuKe, Carnage, Hyper and DOT had to recruit a stand-in for WCG 2005 who was @nG3L, a good friend of the team.
Now there were only 3 teams in Lahore. ShOcK led by slipknot, Demise led by DOT and [R] led by sH@993r. aXa had never recovered from the loss of their leader Baoo who had to leave Lahore after graduation. The strongest team at the time was [R] and Demise set its goal to be the best in Lahore.
It was in early 2006, after a string of defeats from [R], that one day, we set a meeting and in that meeting, we first wondered why we were losing. We began to think what our weaknesses were and how to fix them. It was then that gaming was revolutionized in Lahore and the passive playstyle was adopted for terrorists for the first time in the city.
It was then that a 10-week long league was started called NCPL (Neomatrix Counterstrike Professional League) featuring the best clans of Lahore and in that league, every team was comprehensively beaten by Demise and they could call themselves the best of Lahore.
In WCG 2006, Demise came 1st in Lahore. Shock was second, beating [R]. In WCG 2006 Karachi, Demise lost to ShOcK in the semi-finals, a team which was defeated 16-0 in the WCG Lahore finals. That was a sad moment for Demise.
Now, once again on the peak, DOT left the clan without any reason specified which we were to learn 6 months later was his marriage.
We needed a leader and strat-caller while sH@993r needed a good team after the break-up of [R]. The team Demise changed name to HavoK, as suggested by Carnage.
At first, the only other good team in Lahore was ShOcK which had changed name to GC, Going Clutch, with the addition of Painkiller from [R].
After a few months, DOT was recruited back in the team due to his request and he told the reason of his absence. The team captain & strat caller was now DOT. The team became extremely strong and had no competition in Lahore. There was a tournament organized by AAG TV in which team -i- was supposed to participate. However, they didnt come to Lahore to play, and clan HavoK won the tournament.
After that the team won in ESWC Lahore as expected, and in Karachi, beat FuRy to reach the finals against -i-, where clan HavoK won ESWC Pakistan. Carnage (I) could not participate in the Grand Finals due to an age restriction and sh33p was brought in as a 6th, reserve, player. A month later in the WCG 07 national finals, the team lost the first match of the tournament to iMz (the eventual winners) in overtime (15-15, 4-1). It was DURING that match, that a conflict arose between the team. DOT and Shagger made some decisions during the match which angered the team (position switching for no reason during game, which the other 4 players did not agree with). This was the root of the break-up of HavoK later, as when WCG 07 karachi ended, the team had to go on to Paris. In Paris, the team beat the indian team A+e 16-14, lost to everyone else, and returned.
When the team returned, SaSuKe and Hyper refused to play with shagger & dot altogether. However, due to the involvement of the Neomatrix management, the matter was temporarily subdued, although feelings between the team weren't normal yet.
It was then that the Indiagames.com invited team HavoK to India to play the winner of WCG 07 India (which was to be A+e) in an exhibition, although friendly, match. Clan HavoK had never lost a match that badly, as they did in India, regardless of the reasons. As soon as the plane touched down in Lahore, it was decided that the team would be dissolved.
DOT & shagger claimed the name HavoK, and we gave it to them, as we did not want to get into any fight or create hard feelings. SaSuKe, Hyper, sheep and I decided to make the strongest clan possible. To do that, we recruited Painkiller from GC. The team was named immune2Death on the suggestion of Carnage and it was to be strongest team in Lahore ever made. A month after i2D was formed, a new & improved -incredibles- with the addition of faiNt was invited to Lahore to decide the best of Pakistan.
In that tournament was i2D's power truly realized when team incredibles was beat in the pool matches and then also in the finals 3-0 in a best of five.
Till now, i2D has not been beaten in Lahore, as can be seen by the recent matches played.
