Ferrite[]
Evan "Ferrite" Gates was a competitive Combat Arms player for Righteous Dawn. Known for his support role and consistent aim, he was an essential part of the successful Righteous Dawn WOGL season one roster in the early days of competition. Ferrite was recognized for his M4A1 gameplay when it was uncommon to use anything other than a G36. When the two played together, Ferrite and Kolgarr were a well known duo in the competitive community. In a community poll ranking top pairs in the competitive scene, the Kolgarr/Ferrite pairing was consistently named as one of the top duos to play the game.
During WOGL Season 3, he took over leading the team while Kolgarr was having computer problems. During that time period, he led Righteous Dawn to a 2nd place finish in the Nexon sponsored Death March Tournament[1] and a 2nd place finish in WOGL Season 3. He also participated in Righteous Dawn's first season of WOGL, the 1st place MLG Gamebattles ladder finish, and the Global Warfighter National Championship.
In 2011, Ferrite stopped playing Combat Arms competitively to attend school and has not played the game since.
