[Lower Bracket Round 4 Results - de_clan1_mill]:
Commentary on the de_clan1_mill matches - I think several teams were unfairly eliminated in this round, given that the europeans had little to no experience on this map while Americans were accustomed to playing it in leagues and on lan. Given these circumstances, it's fair to say that DoP and GX might have been eliminated under different circumstances. Still, that's how the tournament goes.
DoP over mTw 13-2 - I think mTw easily outclassed DoP, but DoP's experience on this custom map and mTw's inexperience just lead to an easy win on DoP's part. Sad to see you go, mTw.
Gamers X over Spacebar 18-16 in Double Overtime - Well, like I said, the euro's were at a HUGE disadvantage having to play a map they aren't familiar with. While DoP whupped mTw, Spacebar held their own and ended up being defeated in a very close game.
RiotSquad over WeekEnd Warriors 16-14 in Overtime
Infinity eSports over Texas Area Untouchable 13-4
Upper Bracket Results - de_aztec:
GoL over DoP 13-2
eSu over WEW 13-11 - Sheesh, WEW may not show much skill online, but when they hit lan it all comes out, as they pushed all-star swedish team eSu to the limit in this match. WEW still has time to come back, as they're heading to the losers bracket now; we'll just have to see.
TSO over GX 13-7 - This was a very exciting match, and when TSO only won 8 rounds on CT side, everyone was betting that GX had it won, given that T side is almost impossible to win several rounds on, let alone the needed 5. TSO lost the first 3 rounds t side, but came back and won 5 straight and took the win, sending GX to the losers bracket and proving that teamwork really does pay off.
SK over Infinity eSports 13-11 - I didn't catch the match, but I saw parts of the scorebot and the first half was tied even 6-6, with the second half SK triumphing 7-5, winning by the 1 needed round.
