About a week after Team EG announced the acquisition of United States of America Paul "czm" Nelson, the organization has now picked up Canada Tom "griffin" Wall to join him as their Canadian Quake 3 representative. Included in the announcement, Wall plans to attend QuakeCon this July and then the Canadian ESWC Qualifier at VanLan in August, where he is expected to earn a spot in the ESWC Grand Finals.

Former pro gamer and current EG manager Canada Andy "gellehsak" Ryder said this, "I have known Tom for quite awhile now and we have always had our sights on him as he is a player that has that unique talent to pick things up in a hurry. He has demonstrated that he wants to be the next player to represent Canada, and we feel that he definitely has what it takes to find his place among the Quake elite not only in Canada, but on an International level as well."

Wall himself explained, "I'm excited to be a part of EG, one of the top gaming organizations out there today. I know that they will give me the support that I need to perform my best. I'm looking forward to the upcoming events and hope to attend as many as possible."
