 Epsilon eSports

This team has long been a dominant force in European TF2 and this season was no different.  They won 5 out of their 6 games this season – but, and this could be the most telling point, the one match they lost was to TCM in week 5.   Extremer returning from inactivity to replace  randa on demoman meant that people were wondering if we’d see the team lose some steam as they readjusted, but it doesn’t appear to have had a major impact and they are still looking in fine form.  With the stable backbone of  F2 as their medic, can this team go all the way and deny TCM the 1st place finish they so badly desire?

 Slick, the manager for Epsilon, had this to say:

A bit of a hectic period with vacation, we will try to get our ass in gear today and start playing again before tommorow’s grand final, hopefully enough to beat a solid star lineup such as TCM has. If I can find Extremer in time… that is… Expecting another close and intense game for the specs!

 TCM Gaming

The ‘forever third’ curse that dogged  Byte seems to have been put to bed after they ploughed through Infused to make it to this final.  Despite only winning 3 of their 6 games in Season 12, they only dropped 1 match, whilst drawing the other two, and, as stated above, they actually won their match against Epsilon, which must give them a huge confidence boost going into the final.  It remains to be seen whether holidays will ravage the TCM team or whether they can get the team together enough to give a decent performance.

Byte, leader of the TF2 team for TCM Gaming, had this to say:

What a season we’ve had, if someone had said to me that we were only going to be defeated up until the final by the frenchies (pLine) I’d of doubted them. After winning the semi-final last week TCM gaming think this is great prep for i46.

We mean business and we want to win i46, this is our goal, my goal and TCM’s goal. ETF2L S12 is great practice and prep for that and we’ve shown with the experienced players we have in the team we can compete, adapt and more importantly convert rounds!

We’re under no illusion how good Epsilon are, especially if they are ALL on fire on the night, then they are lethal. None the less, our unique playstyle with how hymzi plays scout, how Zebbosai flanks and thinks along with my positonal element of being in the wrong place on purpose ;) we can still compete.

Best of luck to both teams.

Join us in #vanillatv on Quakenet from 21 CEST onwards as we bring you a dual cast, as voted for by the community.   boomeh,  Admirable and  djc will be covering the game on the first stream, with  AcidRenix,  Beta and  Comedian bringing you the second stream, so you get a choice!  Both casting teams will be giving away CS:GO keys during the game for viewers to win!

ETF2L Premiership Playoffs – TCM vs Punchline

Trell — Tonights cast will decide the ETF2L season 12 (powered by tt eSports) 4th place Premiership spot as  TCM Gaming take on  Punchline.  With the frenchies from Punchline only having won 2 games this season, you’d think the smart money would be on TCM to take this – however, one of the wins they claimed was vs TCM themselves, in a straight 6-0 matchup.  The maps for tonight are Granary, Snakewater, and Gullywash as a decider if needed.  Snakewater was one of the maps that TCM dropped to Punchline last time around – so tonight is definitely worth tuning in for!

 Byte will be looking for nothing less than a win here – I mean, how can he retain the forever third title if he finishes fourth?

Streaming for you tonight on VanillaTV from 21:15 onwards is the undisputed NICE GUY of TF2,  boomeh, with expert commentary provided by the dynamic duo of  Admirable and  djc.

BAD Thursday – ETF2L Season 12 Week 6 – Crack Clan vs TCM Gaming

June 7th Matches
Tagged: crack clan etf2l tcm gaming vanillatv


Admirable — The newly anointed TCM Gaming enter tonight’s Premiership fixture barely running on the fumes of that impressive double Golden Cap draw with Team Infused in May, having been blindsided by an electrifying performance from Punchline on Sunday.

Their opponents Crack Clan have had a turbulent season to date, failing to make a dent against the title contenders since the Spanish exodus and being reluctant to pick up points against their mid table neighbours.

As clichéd as it may sound, this is a must win game for both teams if they hope to secure a playoff spot at the end of the month.  Crack Clan currently hold the fourth spot with double the points of their opponents who languish second from bottom, but with two games in hand TCM Gaming remain well in contention for a podium finish in Season 12.
