A few nights ago saw a rampant NETrunners punch well above there weight by defeating a new look zeroPoint! side by 4-0 and secure $100 in the process, but it also more importantly saw the EuroCup XV sign up period quietly close with a couple of unforeseen surprises for the avid Enemy Territory fan.

The lead up period for this Eurocup has been strangely non-eventful in comparison with former seasons, with no competitions for new teams to compete in and show there worth, and not that many new teams to start with. So what have with we seen instead? The first edition of a ET Masters competition which saw only well established teams battle it out and #ET-Cup edition 25, which was a show cup testing a new map (Karsiah_te), and of course the venerable 1 day cups which occupy every Sunday afternoon. In light of this I decided to investigate some of the teams who have not really had the chance to shine and whom would be looking for an elusive Eurocup qualifier spot. Now I will be blunt here, I personally don't know what format this Eurocup will take but I would be highly surprised if it wasn't 20 team (4 groups of 5?), seeing as there are so many good teams currently battling it out at present, with a high number of direct invites to ensure a certain grade of skill is met for the group stages.

Because it was clear inc won't play, lepari decided to go over to 141
And yes, I've seen them play and even played with 1 of them.
@ Spirea - pff probably did but i wasn't listening propely! :P
@ wesbo - i remember there being pre ec et cups for the last 2, so agree
@ venom - lol
@ fuzz - was a pleasure, shame i couldn't watch you guys tbh, i will go out of my way to do so if you do get a invite
@ tactics - yeh someone else had to post this for me so there are some mistakes (admin is fixing them now <3 petrip) and rated are easy oc premier champs this season!!! i can see it now :P
@ hazer - cheers :P
Btw, nice comparing eZ and blutSTURZ. Nearly all eZ players have played EC before, whereas barely any blutSTURZ players have played EC before. Not to mention that some of them are still considered online-only. :O)
hab euch nie bemerkt bei den praccs jungs :DD
Dignitas, zP, impact, TLR, 141, polar, img, FF, Incomplete, uC, AuXilia, eZ, cZar, vigorz, suXus, bSTURZ, beaver, ec4, pingwins/morrigu then ofc elite with their direct invite :/
But I would put retro in as a little chance option with v&e, overdose, infrag, etc :/
bSTURZ have amazing individual aimers and are showing some signs of teamplay in their game, which if perfected, can be dangerous for their opposition.
beaver might not have known names like other teams but they have a nice understanding of each other along with some pretty decent aimers like dabster and iratou :>
but i think you guys should definetly be considered based on how well you play together
Clans get judged on the players in the team, rather than the team as a whole. Like you said, clans like bSTURZ and eZ have good individual players, but what people don't seem to be taking into account is that they're both less than 2 weeks old and prolly won't have the teamplay of older, more stable teams.
And beaver have sacc, how long do you think they'll last? :O)
a few of ur players wouldnt be close to what they show online @ a lan 4 sure:D
aaamazing grace, how sweet the sound....
im only having fun:D
ur my loverbunny (im getting pretty many loverbunnys tbh;:)
And im proud of it..
im so looking forward to play @ cpcII again.. its gonna be sweet to pwn players i hardly hit or kill online:D
Btw, don't say stuff like overRated wins easily this years OC Premier. It diminishes the value of your ratings of other teams.
and as for viax dont know who you are or who you play for but i hope as for your whine you get an eurocup qualifer hehe sad but gl or your life might be ruined
i personally wouldnt be too happy to play quali against a team like FBI
ulimate Conspiracy – 10
eurocup winners incoming.
Retroactive – 9
runner ups
close-up.
FBI-Team – 9
hax-up.
I dunno how many matches will need to be played for the qualifier, in CoD2 for example, there is a two round bracket (16 clans play, 4 clans will qualify for the EC), it would be great to see that in ET as well, so more clans get the chance to show what they are worth.
@ Team Violence - they have actually achieved something, unlike there Estonian counterparts - Winning the 2nd division of OC is more of an achievement than ending 3rd in the Premier division?
gg guys
you still have alot to learn, young padawan !
lol pls, Vodoo Gaming > FBI
:P
