i46 – Americans dominate the elimination rounds

Tagged: elimination epsilon i46 infused lg

atmo — The double-elimination style knockout rounds of i46 have been running here in Telford all day, and now as we near the completion of this section of the tournament there is a pattern emerging: 2-0 victories by the American teams.

TCM Gaming’s exclusive area. No Tordencam patent infringement intended.

The first North America vs Europe battle came in the form of Leviathan Gaming vs TCM Gaming, in the second round of elimination games. A strong start to the game by TCM saw them pull out an initial lead of two rounds on cp_badlands, with kaidus beating b4nny to middle quite comfortably, but a sudden pause by the admins reset the momentum of the game and LG eventually came out victorious with a 5-3 score. This renewed confidence inspired LG to a further 5-2 victory on cp_gullywash, knocking TCM down into the lower bracket. First blood to the Americans, followed up by a comprehensive 2-0 victory by Classic Mixup over Quarantine.

atmo —Having already sailed through their first game in the elimination rounds , we now have the first transcontinental grudge match coming right up, with TCM-Gaming vs Leviathan Gaming. This best-of-three series pits the pipe-dealing Messiah Grant “b4nny” Vincent against what has been Europe’s finest demoman of late, Jason “kaidus” Allen.

Maps have yet to be decided by the Multiplay admins, with TCM’s Byte quipping “it will be Badlands and something something” before heading off to presumably give a rousing pre-game speech. (Update: maps will be Badlands, Gullywash, Granary)

With this being our first EU vs NA match, we will be bringing you a newly multicultural cast pairing, with a tag team of our own Arx and Beta- cycling in and out with Mr. Yaooo himself, eXtine.

Both EU and NA teams practised continuously throughout the day yesterday between their blips of group game rolls, so they should be fresh and ready to give us some tense action.

Leftism — Tonight will see the ETF2L Premiership playoffs take a further step towards its conclusion as Team Infused take on TCM-Gaming in the semi-finals. This will be Infused’s first appearance in the playoffs as their second place during the regular season awarded them a bye in the first round. TCM, meanwhile, have had to overcome PunchLine with a 2-1 victory in the previous round to get this far.

The game will provide some interesting food for thought: Who will come out as the superior Demoman: kaidus or numlocked? Can Infused’s Scouts Cookye and JoeyC contain TCM’s Finnish scouting duo Hymzi and Rebeli? Will Fisshu stop relying on cap points to get up the scoreboard and start getting them frags? Only time will tell…
