Greg — Season 11 is over; the undisputed champions Epsilon have been defeated, which sees Team Infused crowned the new champions - breaking their curse of never beating Epsilon.  We now move into the off season break, however pretty much every team has had a mid-season or post-season team change, which has gone unreported except for live on PirateRadio (with CommanderX, kaidus and myself).  I am going to take you on a journey through the Season 11 team changes and look forward to the Season 12 Prem teams.

Current Premier Teams

Team Infused:
Lets start with the Champions of Season 11: Team Infused.  It has been a season of progression for them, beginning with a player change, the former dignitas scout cookye came in to replace the quad pistol and just a few days after this pickup the team lost out narrowly in the first Excello final of the season to their nemisis Epsilon eSports.  They took this in their stride and pushed forward, eventually repeating their first place in the regular season; granting them first seed into the playoffs, where they finally defeated Epsilon and secured the title “Champions of Europe” for Season 11.  However it has not been plain sailing for the English team as during the playoff period I made the decision to leave the team, the Team UK and former Team Thermaltake scout JoeyC (also known as Fisshu) replaced me.

Lineup: numlocked, dunc, flisko, mike, JoeyC, cookye

atmo —With a barely-detectable hint of begrudging puppet rivalry, two of our favourite nonsensical childhood mouthpieces have teamed up to cast yesterday’s Zowie TF2 Challenge III final between Infused and Yoyotech. With the cheerful colours of TF2 blending happily with the occasional sing-song and demonstration of basic arithmetic, this is a perfect treat for all the family. Except for the brutal swearing and bloody violence, of course.

Credit goes to Salamancer and Qun for … well, keeping it up for a full thirty minutes. Gold stars all around!

Trell — Roll up, roll up.  Tonight on VanillaTV we have a CHOICE of games for your viewing pleasure!  That’s right, we are spoiling you for choice – you can either watch the Excello Cup Grand Final between Team Infused and YoyoTech, and be in with a chance of winning a Counter Strike Global Offensive beta key, OR you can watch the ETF2L Season 11 Playoff game between Epsilon eSports and Crack Clan, and be in with a chance of winning a Dota 2 beta key!

Both matches start at 21:15 CEST, with the team of  Admirable,  Pledge and  CUBE handling the ETF2L game, and  Comedian,  LilCeder and  Warden taking care of business for the Excello cup game.

Faint — Sorry for the awful attempt at a witty title, but I’m not as gifted as Trell and its 3am. With season 11 drawing to a close there hasnt been much 6v6 action to cover lately. Today however, sees the first of the premiership playoffs between  Yoyotech and  Crack Clan.

Tonight’s BO3 will decide who gets a chance to face off against  Epsilon in the 2nd round of playoffs, and with it bags themselves a Tt eSports prize, and most importantly of all, a little pixel trophy to put in their virtual trophy cabinet.

In both of the last 2 encounters between these two teams, Yoyotech have been the ones to come out on top. With a 2-0 map victory in the excello invite semi-final, and a 1 map a-piece draw in etf2l, with yoyotech gaining the edge on points, thanks to a closely fought golden cap.

With  Greg filling in the open scout spot, yoyotech will have to be on top form to prevent crackclan from getting some payback on their previous encounters. Depending on how the bushman fits in with the team, and if   TheSucker manages to hit right click, this game could be a nail biter.

Join  Admirable and  ThePledge, with  Warden on the stream at 21:15 for an exciting start to the end of season 11.

VOD of Snakewater:

Comedian — Tonight we have some more ETF2L Premiership action going on! Yoyotech will be trying to recover from their draw (in games, not in points) with the now dropped  exotic, by facing off against Tryharders who have yet to prove their worth. Will the spanish scout combination on Tryharders be strong enough to provide sufficient leverage against Yoyotech’s heavy classes? or shall we see TheSucker managing to not drop any ubers and survive for a full round, we shall find out tonight at 21:15 CET.

Casting tonight will be the potato lord himself,  Admirable and Greg, with  Comedian on the stream.

Faint — Update: Due to issues with Kaidus’ net (and possibly tryharders also having problems), the yyt vs tryharders game is to be rescheduled for a later date. Continuing the run of bad luck, due to steam being down currently, our backup games have also been wildcarded.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but these issues are obviously out of our control so there’s not much we can do.

Trell — That’s right ladies and gentlemen (to coin a certain persons phrase), you can join VanillaTV Open Mic for some premiership action tonight!  Both teams in action tonight are kicking off their start to Season 11 in their new division – Yoyotech were promoted last season from Division 1b, and Exotic gained promotion from Division 1a.

With this in mind, tonights game should prove to be a great match.  cp_badlands is first up, and both teams will be looking to score the first few rounds and take the map before we move onto cp_snakewater.

Tune in from 21:15 CET onwards with your streamer  Comedian, and  Admirable   CUBE casting.
