EC Qualifiers: Day 1

A bit less than 24 hours has elapsed and we already have 2 breath-taking matches that could go either way tonight. The first one taking place today at 21:30 CET featuring OVERLOAd vs DreaM and 30 minutes later, 22:00 CET, we have aces vs nOu



At the first clash we have Belgian's best who will be favourites for taking this match due to having much more experience than the DreaM squad, but without a doubt we should not eliminate DreaM out of the score-sheet. Speculation is that this match is all about seeing the likes of zeto's settings against MOTiF's, but for those who would rightfully want to discard thoughts like these, you can always go for the top aimers of both teams, mAus vs sHaKy! We all know ET is not only about aim and both teams and players will need to be on top form to ensure they grab their share of the spoils.

Hello ovr-chry, firstly what are your opinions about the new qualifier system Homer has proposed and implemented? At the moment the odds on GamesTV are in favour of your team, do you think you can win and have you trained? Player to watch?

I think it's the new qualifier is a good system, the teams got more chances to get threw to EC and I think we will see some exciting matches already. I expect us to win tonight 4-0, we didn't pracc much, most of the time we had a missing player during praccs but this last week, we played with our full lineup and it's going pretty well.

Ye I like the qualifier system if we lose we play against the loser of aces - nOu and we sure got a chance to win and i think we will win 4-2 it will be hard but they got a lot of experience but we pracced hard and they came back from inactivity. Player to watch mize



The second clash might be tighter than the first, and surely not less entertaining than the first, having the likes of some of Germany's best facing Estonia's. In this encounter things may go either way, let's have a look over the lineups and team's statements in order to get a clearer view of what both teams can provide us with tonight.

I think the new qualifier system is awesome, it gives clans that get a very hard qualifier a second chance to prove themselves. I think/hope we will win :P, unfortunately subb and JyrkZ were both abroad for a week and we haven't had time to prac much and player to watch is me ofcourse!

The qualifier system is nice i guess. It gives the qualifying teams a second chance if they fuck up in their first match.
The team fits together perfect and i have no doubt they'll win this one 4-0.
Since we are having problems with our 5th, getting him all active again we didnt have the chance to pracc properly but i guess that doesn't matter.
Depends on what you like to watch:
nice engineer work, minekills and sneaking action -> virtu
rifle trickshots/multikills -> ohzor4
headshots and reviving skills -> reAz / Sight
All the above -> RoXoR (he wont play rifle though ^^)
