The Team Desire - Discipline - Dedication, better known as Team 3D is an American professional gaming team which participates in Counter-Strike
, Quake 4 and Halo 2. 3D also once had a Call of Duty division, which halted play in late-2004. The team operates based on support from its sponsors, which allows 3D to travel internationally for competitions from China to Brazil to Europe and North America. Team 3D's corporate sponsors are NVIDIA, Sennheiser, XFire, PNY, Steelpad, Subway, and Velocity Servers. Team 3D has recently picked up Intel as their new head sponsor.

Team 3D has found success by the team's manager Craig "Torbull" Levine, who recruited "Ksharp," "Bullseye," and "Rambo," the core of defunct American powerhouse X3.

New faces in 3D

In July 2005, Team 3D acquired players Shaguar (CA) and Method (US) from Team NoA. The addition of these two international superstars, as well as four consecutive victories over American powerhouse compLexity, was believed by many to solidify Team 3D as the world's premier Counter-Strike
team. However, they were unable to live up to the major hype surrounding them at CPL Winter 2005, placing 9-12th by losing to SK.swe and 4Kings. Halo 2's Team 3D consists of Ogre 1, Ogre 2, Walshy and Saiyan.

3D's Halo 2 success

Team 3D's Halo 2 team was nearly unstoppable in 2005, winning nine of the ten major tournaments they entered. The lone exception was a 2nd place finish at MLG Philadelphia.
