sunday evening Eurocup evening

After a two day break it is now time to get back in to action with Clanbase Eurocup XVII again for tonight we have no less than three big games for you on schedule. So far we saw two expected wins by KKK and by FatGames and the question everyone will ask themselves is will tonight perhaps see the first few surprises?


First off there is ephix - hardboys going up against the all-finnish lineup of vicious and evil. It will be clear for everyone who are the underdogs here and not many will be expecting any surprises for this match. Just a quick glance at vae's roster will send shivers up any opponent's spine. Still, ephix is not a team to throw the towel in without giving it their best shot and, if cought off guard, vae may even be in for a surprise on braundorf_b4.

I caught up with ephix`isENxL for a short preview on this match:

Well we havent played these guys before, so this match can go both ways. But in every newsitem concerning this EC, they were clear favorites and we are the clear underdogs. So we really have nothing to loose, we just play the way we want to play and we will see:) If we want to believe gamestv.org they will bash us on every map with 4 minutes. But if we want to believe the real cheaterbusters, we will bash them on every map within 3 minutes

Player to watch: Lepari
Everyone will agree that this player is an absolute sensation to watch, not only aimwise but also in every other aspect one can think of. Surely, tonight will be no different?

The next game see's last season's champions MegaProGaming back in action for the first time. They will try to prove their new lineup is still one to reckon with as they go up against the Belgians (and dutchy!) of 8Bits. As this is the first game in what many believe to be the group of death (group A), MPG will be looking to show their worth once more and get on top of things right from the start.

We've pracced enough lately, and i guess so did they. Should be a pretty interesting game if we fuck up on braundorf :)

Player to watch: razz
Although he's been back for a while now, this is basically his first offical outing of importance again and if he's still as good as he was he will be very entertaining to follow with a bag of popcorn under your arm tonight.


Last but not least, at 11:00CET the second group D match of tonight will be played. cortana will take it up against the Poles of Fear Factory. xFi. Many will see this as the most important game of the group as this may well prove to be the deciding match for the second place by the end. cortana, who only just came from a rather disappointing results versus TAG in the EMS qualifier series, will definitely try to improve their game for tonight!

For this last match I managed to have calisto give away a short preview for tonight:

I believe it could be a close match. Although we are not very confident atm due to lineup changes (aCozZ who left us but came back) in the past few weeks.

Player to watch: aCozZ
Having been headline news this past week for supposedly switching to FatGames for money, this player is now back to his roots and will be interesting to watch as he yields his riflenade together with his old teammates again tonight!


As you can see we have a very packed evening ahead of us and unfortunately you will have to make your pick as to which match you decide to watch at nine. Still I think none will be disappointed as we are definitely in for some exciting clashes.
Also, I need to apologize for the last post, I was knock-out most of the day I'm afraid :P

Good luck everyone!
