ESWC: Semi Finals Results

Posted by arsen at 17:38 12/7/2003.

The first of the semi finals has been played and I can tell you that tournament favourites, Schroet Kommando, have been knocked out. The team that delivered the surprise result was none other than American clan zEx, who knocked our own 4K out of the competition earlier today. SK may be a bit disappointed with the result, as they did have very high hopes for winning the tournament and were probably the most well-prepared clan there.

In the other semi, my personal favourites from the start, Team9, are currently facing off against French clan Good Game, hoping to take victory on home turf. Here's the result of the earlier semi and the latest from the one currently being played:

Map: de_train

SK716zEx
Team9165GG

The ESWC website seems to be up and down at the moment, but here's the link to the tournament tree anyway.

*****UPDATE*****

As you can see above, Team9 have beaten GoodGame to take their place in the final of ESWC. They will face zEx tommorow night. Here are the vital details:

Good luck to both clans.

22:45 12/7/2003		 i think one of the biggest thing zex had working for them was there suprise tactics and they won and awful amount of ecos which u rarely see especially against clans like sk and 4k. However i think vesslan will be burning the midnight oils and lookin at zex demos and will no doubt prepare his team well, so i say team9 for the win but it will definitely be a gr8 game of EU v USA.

"USA > Europe"

"SK blows, hahah"

"We won"

That's only what you hear from gotfrag these days. If zEx wins today there will no end of their gloating. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
