hiho all!

Yesterday it was a great day for TF2 in St.Petersburg, Russia.

Although there were not so many grand teams on St.Pete LAN, we saw some really breathtaking matches.

hiho all!

Okey, so here we are! In this post I’ll try to tell you interesting information about the upcoming St.Petersburg LAN and will respond to the questions posed in comments on the first post.

At first, here are the final roster of the attending teams (I also will add some words about teams’ line-ups).

Our friend  Galant is back for updates on the Russian Lan. Take it away, champ!

Hello Vanilla readers!
It’s me again, and now I want to share with you some news about tomorrow’s LAN in Moscow. Yesterday groups were announced. Here they are!

Group A:

• abnormaLity
• RageQuit
• Chaotic Community | silver
• flashpoint

Group B:

• Infernal Gamers
• Only Rockets Love You
• Aqeze
• Death Adder

Group C:

• Unexist
• RAGE.MULTIGAMING
• Eternity
• Combat-Folk

Group D:

• Chaotic Community | Black
• Yummy Elite Sausages
• Crucial Team
• Team Slayers

All first teams in groups were seeded, then another four teams (who are second in groups) were seeded, and finally other 8 teams were randomly divided into groups.

Maps in group stage are fixed: gullywash & freight, badlands & yukon, granary & turbine. It’s interesting to note that the most exciting matches between 1st and 2nd teams in groups will be played on granary & turbine. After group stage 8 teams will play play-off matches in single elimination mode, maps – best of 3 – are decided by deletion.

Tomorrow I will try to keep you informed about all interesting matches and provide STVs here. Also there will be some coverage and live-videos in my La compétiTF blog.

See you, Galant.

While Euro players have had a couple of nice LANs recently in UK and in France, here in Russia we are waiting for LAN in Moscow.

• The details:
• 2,200 euro (+-) prize pool
• May 8th, one day marathon from 10am to 11pm.
• Maps: badlands, granary, yukon, gullywash, freight, turbine, well, obscure (rc3) and gravel pit
• Rules: Similar to ETF2L

It will be 2nd LAN which will brought to all Russian speaking TF2 community by the biggest community portal – TF2World.ru. With the Russian TF2 League Season 3 just over, this LAN has 10 teams who qualified by playing the league.The 6 remaining slots solved by a competition between other teams and mixes.

Out of the 16 slots, we can find some well known teams from the European leagues:

• Infernal Gamers (d2 etf2l)
• RAGE.MULTIGAMING (d2 etf2l)
• Unexist (ems)
• chaotic community | black (d2 etf2l)
• Eternity (d3 etf2l)
• Only Rockets Love You (d3etf2l)
• Yummy Elite Sausages (d3 etf2l)
• RageQuit (d3 etf2l)

Unexist and iG are seen as big favourites to play the finals, with strong results in ESL and ETF2L respectively. But, its going to be a close race, and as we all know, playing at lan is very different from playing at home.

Will try to keep you informed, and good luck to all teams, Galant.

ETF2L season 7

Chaotic Community | Black vs Breeze

• 21.15cet,  week 8 div2a, Freight and Gorge
• Stv: 188.165.33.212:20022
• matchlink

2 teams coming off a very rough start. With C2 having impressed being one of few to steal points from the 2 at the top, and Breeze’s alleged problems with activity, this game could prove to tip in the Russians’ favour.

Predictions: Torden | JB | F2 | Dave

ESL Season V

• TCM-Gaming vs Power Gaming
• 21.15cet, Freight and Well
• STV: 85.236.101.74:27015
• matchlink
