ESWC Playoff Stages

Posted by NoToRiOuS at 23:45 9/7/2004.

It seems that the ESWC taking place in France is echoing the results seen in Euro 2004. Many of the top seeded teams and favourites to win have been eliminated and continue to be disposed of in the quarter-finals.

These are the results so far. As you can see the Russian clan Virtus.Pro dumped out the #1 seeds SK in style on dust 2. Not to be out done, The Titans also eliminated the German power houses Mousesports. And also team spiXel dominated Adren. One wonders if they miss Vesslan's leadership and tactics. Also TSG took out Owange. This tournament is really heating up and keeps on throwing up surprises. Who will be victorious, stay tuned and find out.

we havent seen many of these new teams purely because they probably couldnt afford to go to bigger events, normally because there held in the US. I think its good for CS that these teams have proven there just as good as the likes of SK [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

yes.youd be correct

interesting results! it shows how there's other teams in europe other than SK. but to be fair its not the same scale 'shock' as in the football.

For instance if the factory or some s*** team (relative to SK) ended up winning,that wouldve been a shock on par with the greece upset.
any of the four teams left i reckon had an outside chance of getting to the semi/final and losing to SK.

yes,there has been individual match upsets. but overall the winner is going to top seed. whereas greece were almost bottom seed (?).

also is there a player of the tournament award? or a'golden gun' award (equivelant to the golden boot) which the person with the most frags throughout the tournament wins. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

koolkat I dont think they're should be, as stupid as it may sound, people may tend to frag hunt more, you should just have a golden gun award for the player with the best performance :) not highest frags (although if you have a lot of frags you stand more chance of winning obviously)

right I'll stfu, Im confusing myself [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
