CAL-I week6:2 Results

[CSN NewsBot]

I had 6-7 people PM me about sending me a demo. Did you guys even read my predictions? It is important to note that I ask you to just send them, not ask me if I want the demo. Of course I want the demo! So just send it, and I will give credit to the first person who I get it from.

s0phiZtry's Corner:



Top 5 Performances of the Night



1.tec (9-3-0): Tonight tec played RiotSquad, it was expected to be a great match, and it was. rs was favored to win this match by 4 or more rounds, while tec was trying to rebound after their loss to DoP Monday (10-14) who ended their 8 game win streak. T Side tec lost the pistol round, and 2 eco rounds after it putting them down 0-3. If it wasnt for O.Razek (beeks) winning a 1v4 4th round on T, rs would have won this match. tec was led on T side by J.Gilbert (elude)with 12 frags and O.Razek (beeks) with 11. tec who was 0/3 in pistol rounds on nuke thus far finally won one in, a 1v1 won by beeks. As CT side drew out the score was tied at 11-11, tec was led by J.Malcolm (lucky) with 14 frags while rs was led by Cobb (LeKtriK) with 18 frags. The 23rd round would be won by tec in a 2v2. The final round was 2v3 for rs but, tec shut them down for the 13-11 win. My inside sources say that rs seems to be disputing the match. From HLTV nothing looked fishy, but if anything unfolds CS-Nation will be there to cover it.



2. Rival(12-0-0): The two West clans that have the 2 longest win streaks in CAL-i at the moment, Rival being 11-0 while NEG sits atop an 8 Game win streak. CT side started off with NEG getting off to blazing 6-1 lead, then they started to lose their lead when Rival rushed NEG's all AWP defense to win 4 straight rounds but to drop the last round, score would be 7-5 at half NEG. Rival was led by Loch and McDermott while NEG's Aihama had 13 frags. Rival would get off to a great start and finish that way with a 9-3 2nd half score. As of late all of Rival's wins have been by small margins, and on Monday they play 3D which will either be a great match or a blowout. Rival has yet to have a real challenge this season, and probably wont have one in postseason in the Finals or Semi-Finals considering they will probably be #1 seed going into playoffs.



3.DoP (8-4-0): DoP defeated tec Monday to end tec's 8 game win streak, showing that now DoP is showing some strength in their new lineup. Just recently DoP added Flanders (destrukt) to their roster, and in the same week lost Balanos (original) and gained him back. DoP is now the Gamma Division title holder and I expect it to stay that way untill the end of the season. sf started off the season 6-1 with a 13-11 win over DoP and a 11-13 loss to zEx, has lost 5 out of their last 6 matches. Their only win was 13-11 win over W.E.W. DoP will go far the rest of this season, their 4 losses might hurt them come playoffs, but as always DoP will be on top of their game.



4. TuF(4-7-1): Despite being shut out earlier in the season 24-0, and a handful of other loses by huge margins, TuF played Tough tonight to win 7 rounds on 3D. Has 3D finally lost it? First they lose to Ipx 14-10, and then to zEx 15-9, now they barely beat TuF by 10 rounds. A clan that everyone would expect them to win by 22-2 or better. Hopefully there is some logic behind why 3D is sucking. Maybe with WCG Finals so close they've decided to ditch their strats so the Euro's don't beat up on them after watching 3D's HLTV demos, or maybe they just suck, who knows.



No 5th match, all the other matches of the night were not that great.

With playoffs getting near sf and Ipx might not make playoffs. They have 8 clans nipping at their heels with only a 1-1/2 point gap between them. (Win = 1 point Tie= 1/2)

nice reports.

and 3D won :)

they will win the wcg next week

sladek's demo owns.



he has more kills than all of iwa's kills put together.

[cheetarah654]

seems everytime rs loses they accuse the other people of cheating, im gonan watch the demo cause it was a close game, not to evaluate the "fishiness" of the other team

[Wintermute]

demo was a bit boring :/ well done tec anyway. i havent heard anyone call them dodgy before so it just sounds like bad losers :)

[SinaC]

Edited by [user="2964"] @ [time="1035567230"]

They get called cheaters alot. I'd never accuse them though.

[unit000]

what? 3D is either ditching their strats or they suck? i guess it's not at all plausible that the other teams in Cal-I are there for a reason?

i have never seen a demo with more wall spamming than this one

[[tsn]Aenima]

just like to say you have nice predictions, but your thoughts on some things make me sick *or maybe they just suck?* hmm doubt that 3D has stated many times that online play sucks! and anyone who plays online thats good knows that.



You think with them going to WCG there going to bust out strats to get BIG margin wins? no...think about it euros would see the demos and pick up counter strats for whatever they do. there probably the most feared team going into WCG (just my opinion) trust me 3D has lost nothing. Personally i think there taking dives to make others think they lost it then own em patheticly come WCG and Winter CPL.



GG.

the most feared? i doubt most euro's would have 3d in their top 5 clans in the world. i bet most would say sk.swe

[SinaC]

Aenima those thought's aren't mine, you know how it says "s0phiZtry's Corner"? Well, that's because it's his corner. Not mine.



If you had actually read my predictions, you would have realized that I said they are hiding strats too! Wowowow!

[[tsn]Aenima]

Well then, seeing how it says s0phiztrys corner and seeing how i said *your predictions are good* and you didn't make them predictions i might not be talking to you right? wowowow!



you contradicted yourself there buddy, first they were not your predictions then if i read them i would have seen what you said? are they yours or not?

Oh and yes lead....they are probably the most feared ones going (once agian my thoughts) with the new lineup of 3D i doubt in lan play they can be stopped...(but we shall see right?)

[Wintermute]

Aenima did you not even read what he wrote? he said exactly what you said and added that sarccy comment at the end. i dont think anyone seriously believes that 3d overnight turned bad...



hmmm most feared...not sure. none of the big swedish clans are going to be there - not sure which german clan is going? i'd say 3d have a pretty good shot at it.



edit: the PREDICTIONS are sinacs, the bit callled sophi[whatever]'s corner ISNT sinacs.

[[tsn]Aenima]

Argh! my bad i was talking about the top5's the whole time not the predictions. sorry i've been up since 4am and i was alil off my fault agian sin.



Right, no BIG swedish clans will be there but they will at CPL and i think 3D will shine there (just my opinion).

[Wintermute]

have to wait and see i guess :)



its hard to judge how good they are since they havent been stretched much lately (well not when they've been using proper tactics anyway)
