Dignitas meets the Belgian Fraternity

Group A features the biggest gap between the seeds of the top 8 teams with Dignitas being seeded first and Belgian Fraternity getting the eight seed. Thus we will be seeing a match with perhaps the best ET team facing, well, the weakest team of the best teams.

Dignitas have never been considered anything less then a top three team at all the ET events they have attended in its carreer. Even so, the team has always been able to surprise us with interesting actions made by players such as Night. Sadly Mr.ET has started his army service and is not part of Dignitas here at the Antwerp eSports Festival. Belgian Fraternity is another team capable of surprising the community, in fact many of us considered them to be the surprise of the Crossfire Intel Challenge 7. They also hold the notorious status of being one of the few W:ET teams ever to get kicked out of a major LAN event.

On paper this match will be a walk in the park for Dignitas. In practise it will be interesting to see whether the chemistry of an all Belgian team might fuel the Belgian Fraternity in such a way that they will be able to stunt against a team which is currently expected to win the AEF by exactly two-third of the W:ET scene members accoring to the Crossfire poll. It would be a major to Dignitas if they end up losing this match or even if the Belgian Fraternity manages to steal a map from Dignitas.
