Fintastic 5
Here they are, in the Grand Final! They managed to get into it after beating their opponent from the Lower Bracket Final, 
i dont know, with 4-0. But now, they must face the best ET team in the history, not once, but twice, if they manage to win the first match. Tough match, they need all the luck that they can get. There are players in the community that have confidence in them, but there also players that think they don't stand a chance. All that remains now is to see who was right, in just a couple of hours!Let's not forget that they already met their opponents in the Winner Bracket, where they lost after only 2 maps. Is it payback time? Asked about this, the following player from
fintastic 5 had to say:Matias: It's payback time! Dignitas going down with our newest special tactics that were made just against dignitas. Dignitas is performing as you expect them to perform, ESL FINAL. Both teams are full of key players so pic your favorite! Hard to say who will win since neither of the teams prac at all, that makes it even more interesting!Road to the Grand Final

Dignitas
They managed to beat everyone in this season of ESL Major Series. What a record, I might say. Will they manage to keep their winning spree after this match too? It's an objective that they have in mind. But let's not forget that this is no ordinary opponent. The finnish are prepared to give them hell tonight, in a match that announces itself as being very exciting! However, they made some slight modifications in their line-up since
karnaj went on vacation after AEF, so they needed a new 5th. Who did they get? One of the new belgian talents, uNDEAd. Some say he's even better than karnaj, some think that this was the worst choice by far, but all in one, we shall see tonight! dignitas/drago: We look forward to finally finish this season and are very eager to win this tournament. Both teams are equally skilled so I guess it will come down to individual actions - this will be very thrilling to say the least. I want to thank everyone involved in organizing and covering this event and personally I'd be happy to see another EMS season for ET after this. GL and HF to everyone watching and playing.Road to the Grand Final

Predictions
emorej: Well let's list some facts, dignitas won aef without any problems but they just lost to impact and ffive couldn't be there . I think they didn't care much about ec anyway, top teams nowadays favor ems over ec and they played without karn-boy & against mAus. In the other hand, ffive couldn't prac much lately aswell as some of their teammembers were at aef aswell. So to conclude I'd say it will be a tight match, probably a good match to spec. If I had to predict the score, I'll go for a 4-2 for ffive!
XyLoS: Will be a close match between 2 great teams, my prediction goes to fintastic5, if they play together they'll get it, 4-2twidi: I think that this should go for dignitas. Fintastic5 has an amazing lineup, but from what I know they haven't really been playing that much. Dignitas had a great run at AEF and I don't see why they couldn't keep it up here. 4-0 or 4-2 for Dignitas.Sheep`: Given the slight improvement dignitas have through the loss off karnaj and acquisition of uNDEAD, yet still losing to a reshuffled impact side, I'd say this is going be somewhat of a steady victory for F5. Those Fintards really know how to play as a team - with a lot of help from 3 of the best medics ET has witnessed, olBaa, Matias and Lepari. They'll bring home the bacon!rockit`zerender: digninerds will win 4-2.aphesia: I think Dignitas will win, it should be a close game. However I believe Fintastic Five didn't prac for a long time, and on the other hand Dignitas who played really strong at AEF has a big advantage over F5.The Finnish side need to win twice over Dignitas which I don't see it happening, Dignitas will take a 4-2 victory. Player to watch: Drago.
wiaderko: Good players, but ensample duo will deliver.R0SS`i: Dignitas will win another thrilling encounter. I believe F5 will win the 1st game 4-0, but Dignitas will pull back the second game and win that 4-2. Its not often you see them lose 2 games in a row.
Clown: If reload can step up and start hitting someone, then dignitas has a chance, otherwise jaka won't be enough to carry! I think they'll get themselves together though and win with 4:2.bF`Gifted: I hope this game will be as exciting as dignitas their last game. But I think dignitas will be able to pull this off with a 4-2 win. Players to watch olbaa & squall!
filuS: As we could see few weeks ago, matches between these two teams are always thrilling and hard to predict even when they are one right after another. But if I should bet on someone, this time I would go with dignitas, since Mr.Anderson is nerding rolls really hard lately. :)
slajdan: I am pretty sure fintastics will take it 4-2 or even 4-0 if dignitas played as "average" as they did versus impact yesterday. Dignitas is missing their current keyplayers, tactical mastermind Night and damagedealer karnaj, but then again all dignitas lineups has always been strong when there is money involved. My conclusion is based on what looks to be the downfall of the dignitas domination era.wEAAKKK: I'd bet all my money on dignitas, eventhough I don't know how they perform with karnaj / undead as additions since I haven't seen any of them playing at all since ~ 12 months :D 
Think et paid the most or even all.
the enemy territory scene always wanted to have a regular seasonal competition with prizemoney, europe's biggest online league esl is giving it to you twice per year but you are still not satisfied? tell me why! i/we don't want to get loved for this, but the admin team is spending hours of their free time and just want to get respected. please stick to the truth and tell your lies somewhere else. thanks!
it's written above
2nd: meez didn't write which seasons prize money is missing. i guess from season v which has - as i wrote already above - not been payed yet but will be payed as all seasons before
i know you are working for clanbase, an organization which hasn't really covered itself with glory by announcing prize money featured tournaments although they knew that they do not have the money... so, you should not support this "ant-esl" part here (when i understood your comments today and in the past about this subject wrong, just tell me ;) )
if you really think esl cannot pay any money, please answer me this question: why are teams like sk gaming, fnatic, mousesports etc are flying to esl tournaments in dubai, china, usa and many other cities when esl would not pay them their prize money? additionally i can tell you enough et players who have already received prize money from esl ;)
Atleast pay the winners within a time period of a month or 2.
It's ridiculous to wait over a year, from what I heard.
And who gives a shit what CB does? Who gives a shit what has been done in the past? You want us to worship ESL because of what the also did?
That all doesn't matter, it's about the winners not getting clarity whether or not they'll get paid and when the prizemoney will arrive.
but it is just a big joke to see someone from clanbase criticising esl over and over again for not paying money (same like nobody of the managers of lehman brothers should tell you something about risk management ^^) although he (killerboy) knows that esl can and will pay the money...
and as i said already: we do not want to get loved for it (or as you say "worship") but the point is: compared to clanbase we have with esl now an organization which has payed, can and will pay the money it promised. of course it could take faster, but talking about "esl will never pay the money" is just ridiculous to me. after ignoring more or less many comments we now reached a point where everything was just too much...
:D
0-4 otherwise it doesn't fit into your stats showing 4-x all the time (I'm aware of you saying they lost but still)
"one of the new belgian talents, uNDEAd."
Yeah, whatever :PpP
shouldn't newswriters be familiar with the english language?
What about despero? ;d
Le rofl
I know its team based game and stuff... but they lack this one player that can make the differance by killing 2-3 oppos when its needed the most :<
"if we lose we will just say we dont care"

ETTV Ips:
Pity it was a pretty crummy match :v has a lb team ever won both finals 4 - 0 before?
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON WITHE THE "ALL SO MIGHTY" DIGNIF .. eh
loss vs impact, a clear loss vs fbla .. the fuck is wrong with them?
must be undead
In addition they were playing with a merc. Haven't watched the game though, so no idea how much that actually mattered :-)
So maybe: merc + 0-care attitude lead to those defeats. Fins could be just uber good though. No idea :-))
anyway a strange attitude. i´m sure spain does not want to get bashed by another team in a friendly soccer match even if they miss some regular starters but in ET it´s cool to do so. lack of respect...?!
