These teams have met several times in the past year, with each game being interesting to watch. Badlands and Gullywash are the maps, with granary as the decider – will we see the perma Heavy tactic used by either team on Gully once again?
Edit: Team Comms will be included tonight. Yay!
Tune in to VanillaTV tonight to catch the action as it happens.

- # - nice! +7Epic game, cheers to all involved for a great night
- # - nice! +5my nerves… what have you done to them
Amazing game! Thanks for this great spectacle!
- # - nice! +2Abismal season, thriller finale. WP to both teams. Gratz to Tt.
- # - nice! +1So same time next week yeah?
I missed it for a concert so I’ll be saving the VoD for a rainy day.
It’s England, there can’t be one too too far away, eh?
- # - nice! +0Very well played TCM.
Both teams had their own good moments, own mistakes, own moments of glory and I think this was the best game which I ever had in my practise as a medic in a team ^^ .
Speaking in terms of Team Thermaltake, last days we didn’t practise much, that’s why it went so hard for us on gullywash and I think TCM would play granary better if it would be first map(Not third) , because it’s pretty exhausting to play third map against a team, which has better stamina. Even harder, if 2 maps before were long, exhausting and hard.
Cheers!
Mirelin!
Nice to see you managed to log in, Mirelin. :D
ggs to both teams, especially the last minute of Gully – Only the last minute of the i40 final can compare.
Also, props to our casters tonight Admirable, Comedian and Torden. Did a solid job and liberal use of the team comms made for a well polished cast. :)
- # - nice! +2SOLID?
- # - nice! +5BEST CAST EVAR!!11
Great game.
- # - nice! +2Well deserved for Tt, even though it was close they just seemed more coordinated.
When are the VODS gonna be up?
- # - nice! +0If you go to the actual justintv page they should be up automatically (allbeit unedited)
- # - nice! +1They are on the matchticker right now!
- # - nice! +1best thing i’ve seen on my computer screen
- # - nice! +3absolutely insane game
- # - nice! +1congrats Tt
dat gullywash finish
- # - nice! +1gg wp to Tt, part of me is obviously gutted and quite sad tbh that we didn’t win, but another part of me very happy for Tt and especially Exfane and Arie, as they’ve been trying and trying since I can remember them on the scene to get to the top and have beaten us deservedly.
I think what Admirable said was spot on, Tt were slightly more coordinated and focused fire better than us on crucial transitions mainly last on all 3 maps, they punished us for this and deserved took the rounds so wp to them.
And finally the other part of me was thinking just wow how much promotion and hype has been made for tf2 just for watching that match, people were wondering if they can do that, if they can feel that adrenaline and intensity and so on…
So in summary it did wonders for TF2 , for the audience and obviously for Tt but I personally don’t feel as bothered as I thought I’d be mainly because it was such a tight match it could of gone either way and it lasted for ever lol.
Still the 2nd best match to date, nothing will beat that i33 semi final verus TLR :p nothing!
hehe wp and thanks to my crew in VanillaTV did an excellent job who all played a part and made me proud!
Cheers
Byte
all i hear is blah blah blah
It’s a shame that’s all you hear is that then lol, because clearly others can see/hear alot more in what I’ve said, grow a pair first then speak :)
Cheers
Byte
Don’t get baited now.
God Forbid :p
Love you Arie and many congratz dude for your boys! :3
Cheers
Byte
- # - nice! +1Surely you mean Byted?
- # - nice! +3Defcon Zero.
Congratulations to both teams for a great series and Tt for the win.
- # - nice! +2Great game, shame Valve didnt blog it.
- # - nice! +4Let’s hope they blog the vods :)
- # - nice! +4They blog about some shitty inactive podcast that put out like nothing past two years but now seeing the “success” of kritzkast thought it’s a time to reap some e-fame but won’t blog about such a great community event like this?
- # - nice! +1Gotta give them some cred. They’ve blogged a bunch of stuff in the past. I strongly doubt that they’re suddenly thinking “No, we don’t want to promote shit like this anymore, it just plain sucks.”
- # - nice! +0I think it’s mainly a matter of circumstances. They haven’t acknowledged the VoDs yet, but a couple of hours ago, they agreed to playing a future show match to promote comp TF2. So just hold your horses and don’t give them shit they don’t deserve ;)
someone shout at gabe and make him blog the vods. this was the most epic final since i40
- # - nice! +2Ashkan has already mailed them. I did try to get this match up on the blog before it started, but no success, guess nobody was at the office over the weekend.
- # - nice! +3i expect so, they are pretty layed back
- # - nice! +1granary’s demo is unavailable or is this error just for me?
- # - nice! +0It is for everyone. It is stuck in processing… Martn is aware of the isseu.
- # - nice! +0But comedian is the one doing those vods, he still hasnt reported in for today. So we’re waiting a bit on him to redo the granary one.
- # - nice! +1the granary vod is up, it just hasn’t been separated from the entire 3 hours, nor listed.
www.justin.tv/vanillatv/b/2894..., granary starts about 30 or 40 mins in.
Enjoy :]
- # - nice! +4thanks! :)
- # - nice! +0k. advertise a third party backpack examiner but don’t advertise the ETF2L finals. :/
- # - nice! +2Was unfortunate timing with the game scheduled too close to the weekend. We’ve been in touch with Robin who’s interested in running matches like this on the news blog, given a few days notice (weekdays).
- # - nice! +1STV’S?
- # - nice! +0so what’s up with STV?
- # - nice! +1byte has them, nuff said.
- # - nice! +4
