Kicking off the day's long fest of action will be the sides of Idle.ee (1st seeds) and [flag=0] TosspoT & Friends (Last seed) at the unholy hour of 9.30. The game will be what can only be described as a feat of ipossibility for T&F, as their opponents are only Quakecon 2005, 2006 and ClanBase EuroCup champions, and commonly thought of in the scene as invulnerable to defeat. Whatever the outcome, either side can be sure of progression, whether be it through the path of either winners or losers brackets.
The second game of the day sees an rejuvenated Belgian cZar lineup aiming to conquer the somewhat stumbling sFx side whose players have only been part of the same team for a matter of weeks in build up to the LAN. sFx are sporting an assortment of talented players, including mAx, whose recent introductory spell to the Q4 EuroCup earnt him much acclaim. Up for grabs for the winners is a possible tie against Idle, so both parties are sure to want to get off to a positive start.
riZe vs Team NL offers possibly the hottest named game of the day so far, with both teams putting in plenty of hours in buildup to the event. Only last week the Dutchmen spent their time bootcamping here in the TGS and perfecting their settings, gaining an advantage as their learn how the venue performs. riZe have had to give up the slot of member mAus, one of the highest rated players in their team due to suspicious circumstances and replaced him with witz, who should aim to complement him better known teammates in the quest for glory.
Helix vs dMIZE, a game which could potentially swing either way, with helix sporting the old and successfull Vicious&Evil and dMIZE (ex-Team Northern Darkness) who are currently ranked as the second best clan in the whole of Enemy Territory. Helix are boosted by the arrival of mike/guardian of the EuroCup winning Idle team of last season, whilst the inclusion of mesqi, although he might not be able to see above the height of the desk, is sure to fill his opponent's heart with fear.
