CAL-I 8:2, The Final Week

[CSN NewsBot]

This is the final week in this CAL season, and it's the time where teams are cleaning up their acts and getting ready for this summer's CPL.



This week's "Match of the Night," is between Ownij and GX. These two have been very strong the past few matches, and it should put on an excellent show on this week's map, de_cbble!



I'm going to sit down with [GX]-Bishop in a little bit, and grab a quick i'view about tonight's match. Scorebots will be available in the #calcast channel.

frag vs nerve - Rescheduled to Monday



P.S. Kudos to shockwave[break]My predictions for this week are...



- GB vs. aoX -

GB is a strong team, and aoX is still getting used to their roster shuffle for the CPL.



GB > aoX 14-10

- TEC vs. shocKwave -

I am a shockwave supporter, and I'm helping them get to CPL. They recently lost their 5th, but I still think they can pull stuff together for tonight!



shocK > TEC 13 -11 (Go underdogs!)

- TSG vs. Cc -

Cc is a decent team, but TSG has been playing strong. As mentioned above, they just spanked TEC hard (it may have been an accident, but none the less, a spanking is a spanking.)



TSG > Cc 15 - 9

- GX vs. j1n -

I'm going to have to side with GX on this one, they are just too strong to lose to j1n right now.



GX > j1n 17 - 7

- Rival vs. WEW -

WEW doesn't have a decent starting line-up, and Rival is going to show them how it's done.



Rival > WEW 16-8

- TSO vs. SYB -

TSO isn't what it used to be, and SYB has the teamwork it needs to dismantle this offensive.



SYB > TSO 14-10

- fu vs. nerve -

I thought nerve was a decent team, then they got smoked by TSO. I think that's a bit discouraging, and fu will take over tonight.



fu > nerver 15-9

- 3D vs. Pinnacle -

Any 3D match is always interesting, but this one should be good for Pinnacle comes out of nowhere sometimes. Those crazy Asians can do just about anything when they feel like it. However, I think 3D feels like winning more tonight.



3D > Pinnacle 16-8

- Hicks vs. e7 -

e7 is doing pretty well, and I'm not too confident with the Hicks with Sticks tonight.



e7 > Hicks 17-7

- TAU vs. d0f -

TAU hasn't done anything this season, and d0f has done so much in their first run in CAL-I. I think d0f will win this one, for they are a much better team.



d0f > TAU 15-9

- BiO vs. iwa -

The heroes face off against home star runner. Anyhow, I think BiO will "Burninate" iwa.



BiO > iwa 15-9

- c[h]ikara vs. MurK -

There is a fine line between MurK and [h]. That's all I need to say.



MurK > [h] 19-5

- TU vs. ExS -

Both lower end teams, but I think ExS should win this one.



ExS > TU 14-10

- zEx vs. xeno -

zEx has always beaten xeno, even on LAN with one exception. zEx will stomp xeno.



zEx > xeno 17-7

LgD > gsx.tx 13-0 - Forfeit Win

[AceR]

i hope TEC or zEx wins cal i title this year, even tho i think 3D will win.. since they play hard when it counts....

[MikeJ]

The CPL this summer is going to be the best one yet.

[phrzn]

Every post today has been eSports.



3D will tighten up now, as they always do, and win everything between now and The CPL this summer, where they'll place either very high or win.

[-:Nighthawk:-]

Go GB! I'm gonna have to bet on TEC, but not by much. TSO vs. SYB should also be interesting, for the battle of the flyweights. Ah well, not a lot of nail-biter matches



I must be out of it... Ownij is j1n? How'd they come up with that tag?

There is a fine line between MurK and [h].

No, there is a huge gaping ravine between MurK and [h]. :)

[vapor (v4p0r)]

Elaborate on your predictions a little bit more; and shockwave over tec? You my good sir are fucking crazy :x. TEC > Shock at least 17-7

[Grocer]

~P~ is gonna beat 3D. They've gotta win to make the playoffs.

[orion]

Nighthawk: Ownij to j1n cause I guess they're dyslexic?



vapor: I've watched and played with shockwave, they can do it as long as they play their best. Also, after the way TEC played earlier this week, shocK will tear them up. Aside from that all, you have to have hope, I mean look at the Mighty Ducks, they are named after a damned Disney Cartoon and are in the Stanley Cup Finals.

[vapor (v4p0r)]

Shock lost their online supar star tho :x.

[[Jurai]Tenchi]

cybersports are gay



That's why you don't have to post in one of these topics... ever.



There's also a nifty feature where you can remove e-sports from your daily news here at CS-Nation if you think that "cybersports are gay." We're just that generous.

[Shadow]

i for one do not get eSports. Games were invented for our enjoyment, and if we make gaming a sport, were just getting too serious about it. Were showing that we have become dependent on it,and we need it every second of our lives. Shit, im starting to sound like that teacher who teaches the special drugs abuse program.

[vapor (v4p0r)]

Well look at any other activity. You get bored after just playing with your friends after awhile so you want to compete.. I mean would you want to just play soccer with completly random people at random times or would you rather play it in a league?

[AceR]

orion, you were right! shock won!

[orion]

shock > tec 13 - 11



That's right.
