It’s been just three weeks of intense Eurocup action, but we’ve once again reached that final defining stage. Eight are gone, just eight remain. The teams now four wins away from a showdown in the “Grand Final”.
This season’s action was slow off the mark, with a mundane first week going the way of the favourites. But as time progressed rivalries flared and the action of old kicked in, some classic encounters making the final few games as tense as ever. This was emulated on the final day of the group stages, as a strong one4one team took on Team Helix, a must win game for both in Group B - that night also signalled the return of iTG Tosspot for the Xmas period. We were in for a treat, a three map thriller ensued in which one4one proved eventual winners, securing their place in the quarter finals and a showdown with Oceans6.
The top two in each group progress, with four clans currently unbeaten, though idle.ee are the only team yet to drop a round. The final tables look as follows:
Group A
idle.ee
Oceans6
Team Zenith Black
Instant Defeat
Group B
one4one
uQ Gaming
Team Helix
Legend
Group C
IDKFA
Ratatosk
Logitech UVM
insanity!
Group D
Gods Incorporated
wArning!
Clan SoF

Most would agree, so far things have gone to plan. With the only apparent surprise coming once again in Group B, where last season’s finalists only managed to take second place.
