[edit] The beginning - 2007
The Carolina Core had the last pick going into the first ever CGS draft. Mark Dolven, the General Manager, picked Ryan "Offbeat Ninja" Ward directly followed by Joe "Phantom" Tackett being his first two choices.
In the first season of play, the Carolina Core defied the critics and went on to not only advance to the playoffs, but also advance to the Region 1 Championship game. The Core fell to the Chicago Chimera in the final game of Region 1 by one point making it 22-21. Because of their second place finish, the Core advanced to the World Championship and went all the way through the World Final to only lost again to the Chicago Chimera by 27 points to 15.
Dolven's first pick, Ryan Ward, was the best Dead or Alive 4 male player throughout season one having a record of 11 wins to only 1 loss.
