SPLYCE have announced their return to competitive Counter-Strike with the acquisition of the team known as Dogmen.

The former FolloweSports.com organisation, who rebranded to SPLYCE at the start of the month, had been on the lookout for a new team to support following the disbandment of their previous roster in the wake of a failed qualification attempt for the ESL ESEA Pro League.

The signing of Dogmen, who previously donned the colors of 3sUP, is part of SPLYCE's policy of sweeping up promising young players. The team recently beat Liquid in the regional qualifier for ELEAGUE Road to Vegas and managed to secure a spot at the Americas minor, scheduled for mid-January.

Only four of Dogmen's players have signed for SPLYCE, however, as Owen "⁠wabbit⁠" Farrelly has been omitted from the squad, leaving the team in a hurry to find a new fifth player in time for the event in Columbus.

"We as a team are extremely happy to announce that we will be partnering up with Splyce for 2016," team captain Arya "arya" Hekmat said in a statement. "We are confident that 2016 will be an amazing year for both of us. We would like to thank Marty and the management of Splyce for making this transition as smooth as possible. "They have been an absolute pleasure to work with and we are looking forward to working with them for many years to come. We would like to thank the community for your support and your continued support in the future. We remain fully dedicated to being the best and we believe that Splyce will give us the best opportunity to reach our goals."
