EarlyXmasRTCWCup - PlayOffs

The Groupstage of the Early Xmas RTCW-Cup finally ended yesterday with the last match in which Chaos have beaten Fallanx 4-0.

Concluding the passed three weeks, three of the groups ended the way everyone would have expected them to be. 118, Chaos and No Pressure all went through undefeated and deservedly took the BYE to the Quarterfinals.

Only KiH could not live up to the expectations. It was Cave who out of nowhere first defeated fixed, then KiH and finally also iAm to top group A.

This loss for KiH will be something they will be hauted with for some time. Not only they don't recieve a BYE for the single elimination brackets but also their oponent in the quarter finals - should they get past Fallanx - is none other than 118.
