Oh yes, the WorldCup is still alive. Today is the big day, the final between the two teams who reached it, Poland and Germany is going to be played tonight.
In the first, and last, edition of the Enemy Territory WorldCup we are going to see 2 very strong teams battling for the final. They both have played alot of matches to get there and will hopefully show us a great final tonight. This first WorldCup was one hell of a Cup, with the cheaters playing everywhere, some teams kicked out, nations teams from all over the world have shown what they are capable of. Some had the luck to advance to the playoffs, some didn't have any luck and were very close. But let's not forget that every nation played for fun, eventrough not everyone had fun.
You can say alot about it, you can blame the admins for the decisions made and for the teams kicked from the tournament, but still we reached the final and we're going to end this cup tonight. We've had ups and downs each week, a nation with alot of star players such as the United Kingdom, who couldn't reach the last couple of rounds because they lost twice against the cheaters of Portugal were one of these unlucky teams. A Nations like The Netherlands, who were kicked because of a banned captain and player who might not even have used a cheat during the cup, while others in their team did use one were kicked from the cup, a sad story where of course the admins are getting flamed for. It all happened under my own eyes, under the eyes of the crew, everyone who helped and of course the flaming community we have. I won't appologize for any decision we made during the WorldCup, as we still think we made the right ones and we are very happy that the WorldCup was going on each week again, with spectacular games, great players playing once again for their own nation to show what they can.
You can kind of see this as the last WorldCup post ever, I will leave my PC alone for the next 3 weeks after the final has been played and I will not write another newspost to tell everyone what a great experience this was for me, enjoying the whine you brought me was simply nice to laugh about, but also very helpfull. We've listened to the community and made our changes, and now it all comes to an end.
Tonight, the two best nations in the WorldCup are fighting against eachother. The squad of Poland, who have alot experience and great teamplay because they've played together as a team is the favourite, they entered the final after winning every game and after winning a great Winners Bracket final against the same opponent as tonight, Germany. That country is the one that did loose against Poland, but they showed what they can do and will certainly show us a great match tonight. They lost agaist Poland before, but came back in after winning a great match against Finland in the Losers Bracket Final. Both teams are ready to rock and roll tonight.
