CB EC Finals - 21:00 CET Wednesday 18th June - H2K Gaming vs Speed-Link
H2K Gaming enter the finals a wash with controversy after a rather bizarre decision to call a default win over Dignitas. Prior to this however they played extremely well throughout the playoffs defeating KomaCrew (25-22), SK Gaming (25-20) and Speed-Link (25-22). They recently came 2nd at the Acer Challenge at wzzrd in Enschede picking up €1,000 after losing to KomaCrew in a 3 map thriller that went down to overtime. Despite so many great results I still can't call them the favourites in this match up as their opposition have hit such a rich vein of form recently that it will be 50-50 all the way.
Speed-Link played well last night blasting their way into the EMS Finals with a swift defeat over LowLandLions. There path to the ClanBase finals however first met with defeat to none other than H2K Gaming (25-22). From then on though they've left a path of destruction beating CMAX (25-15), Sample This (25-18), KomaCrew (25-15) and Team Turpo (25-14). Having beaten Dignitas in the EMS Winner Bracket Semi-Final they can perhaps be let off getting a free bye into the finals.
So there it is, a Final that could possibly be the last real EuroCup in terms of team attendance. Fnatic took the first step to boycott before the event but with Dignitas and MYM following there may well be more to come, especially when every other competition out there is offering more prizes. Nevertheless it should be a fantastic match and one you will not want to miss!
You can watch it all live with Deman on QuadV TV1.
