A lot has happened since the last write-up. Matches replayed, Murders still on the loose, DEMOS NOT FOUND?
Congratulations to the following teams for making it this far!
Art of Slaughter ended up beating UF so bad that Stoneco|d quit the match and PG before the 2nd map even started It is unfortunate for the others on the team who show up to play when your captain just checks out. well done here AoS. He briefly returned for some demo requests as is tradition lately, but found no success.
The next test was against -]iB[- for a shot at the finals, the players all started their demos after several reminders and the match was off! First map Klondike was a win for -]iB[-, but the following iztac and anfractuous were clear wins for AoS. With comet playing a very solid game who turned into the MVP for AoS in their semi. Can they repeat this in the final?
Their opponent will be Mercy Rule, nr1 in their group, but had to be very patient in the playoffs' previous round, because they had no idea who they would be up against up until match time! Their opponent had to come from the demogate match between In for Silver and Duck Hunter. After a lot of discord drama, the 3rd map command was replayed and won by In For Silver, keeping their dreams of fulfilling their destiny as silver winners intact.
In the semi final iFS vs Mr. iFS started strong, with a win on the first map rune, but Mr quickly dusted off their rust and won the 2 remaining maps comfortably.
VS
The grand finale will see 2 strong teams who have battled their way into big stage to claim the gold!
Mercy rule, under the leadership of crispy(or ryan) has proven to be a strong fragging team. With probably the most underrated player in this cup L8erade they have a very solid midfield. With the experienced defense of Rumba & Nitro and jukemaster special Rasta-man they are a very rounded team that can do well on any map.With back up of Lineage.
Art of Slaughter under the cheerleading power of sheeva, because let's face it, small chance he will actually play. They were already strong in the group stage with some very hard running from Draymith backed up by the fragging power of -CoMeT.PrT- and smart plays by ftwphil, they are always able to cap on any map.
Combined with the solid defense of veterans dickfish & PlaYFuL and super sub uZi they managed to end up in the final!
In this best of 5, I think we will see 4 maps, where Mr. will come out on top. In the end, most draft cups are won by the team that finds the underrated superstar and I think Mr. found that in L8erade
Possible map picks:
Mr. : Klondike, duku
Art of Slaughter: Anfractuous, iztac
Good luck to both teams!
Battle of the loser admins, who cares.....? -]iB[- vs in For Silver.
iFS can not make silver anymore and iB are not so butchery as they thought.
Best of 3 and a replay of the group stage match where iB won 2 maps against a different iFS.
