In W:ET teams seem to come and go, yet there is one side which we can always rely on to show up at a major event, albeit in some shape or form: Dignitas. RELOAd and Jakazc go back for a long time, with the Estonian's first LAN with the team being the second edition of the Crossfire Challenges.

Rockit and Team SPEEDLINK are the favorite teams to proceed from group C to the playoffs. The teams are starring in the final match between two group favorites and seem to be in the run for the "best team sporting a German flag" competition as well. Though with one German player Rockit does not live up to its flag, but maybe the team can live up to the expectations the community has on them.

Impact Gaming met a strong opponent in the form of Gamerz Connexion earlier this morning, however gzcon were not able to capitalize on the map they won by forfeit against the late arriving Impact, meaning Impact are still the reigning team in group B and seem to be in quite a comfortable position to secure their reign.

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.

Soon starting is the match between the two teams considered favorites in group D: Overload versus Acsi-eSports dNan. It's likely that the team winning this match will in the long run also end up on top of group D, meaning they will have a bigger chance of facing an "easy" opponent in the playoffs.

While the European TAG has bailed out of the tournament the mostly Dutch TAG will be facing Impact Gaming in perhaps one of the first matches between two contenders for the top here at the Antwerp eSports Festival.

Some years ago there was a vivid Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory competition returning at every edition of the Frag-O-Matic, a LAN event in Belgium which was able to draw hundreds of participants for each instalment. The model for an event like FOM is quite simple, put all the gamers in one big hall and let them bring their own computer so they can play games throughout a weekend.

When seeing the following two teams, don't you have the slightest notion of deja vu?
