Impact versus dESIRE

Whilst the last match of the first round is still to be played ( n1ce versus Questionable is due for thursday), we are today entering the second matchweek. Yesterday saw a strong Impact side easily overcome Tag with a 4-0 win. The other match was less obvious and the Dutchies of Team CoolerMaster eventually managed to grab a win on the decider map versus the likes of Incomplete!.

Today we have just one match on schedule, as the title already suggests. Let's have a look at what we can expect.


As mentioned in the intro above, Impact managed to grab an easy win over Tag on braundorf_b4 and radar. Aparently replacing mAus with snoop hardly did the team any arm and yesterday they showed everyone they are still a side likely to end this EuroCup with a cup behind their names, be it either bronze, silver or even gold.
dESIRE however, didnt do so well in the first matchweek as they lost their match versus FatGames' old lineup. Although one may argue it was a close game which needed a decider to get to a winner, the result suggests that the Frenchies are hardly likely to do any harm tonight surely?

For your leisure I asked a few people for their short predictions on this one:

Impact will win 4-0 (maybe 4-2, depends what jaki is going to do with the docs on Adlernest). Eventhough impact kinda sucks at the moment according to one of their Estonians, I doubt desire is an actual challenge for them.

Quote by Vaflor

seems this will be an epic game. I have no idea of what the outcome will be since im an ignorant rtcwer but rbnt tells me impact will take it

Quote by unblind

As much as I'm hoping for an interesting game this one should be quite straight forward. I'd say it's got to be Impact all the way, their lineup obviously has a surplus of experience - desire really need to pull something special out of the bag to win this one!

All in all this seems to be a pretty straightforward game and no one is expecting a surprise. Eventhough adlernest is on the maplist for tonight surely impact wouldnt get so sloppy as to jump off a bridge again? We'll see tonight!

Have fun!
