NL #1 to win 3on3 NC Grand Final

After a lot of weeks, several games played and a couple of not played ones, 3on3 NationsCup is down to 2 teams. One of them fought it's consecutive road into the Grand Final being undefeated. Another one has lost in semifinal of Upper Bracket. Both teams did not meet in the tournament yet. The great encounter between The Netherlands #1 and Germany #1 will take place on tuesday's evening. Having checked the lineups, it's almost a battle between OVERLOAd and credibilis (all from 5on5 rockit roster). Be sure to turn it on!




The Netherlands #1 is the team that continued participation without a single loss. However, in the first grand final match, they found their conqueror. The team based on OVERLOAd players have quickly secured their spot in the Grand Final after overmastering Estonia #1 in the Upper Bracket Final. To finish the cup on the 1st place, they needed to beat their opponents once. It's a tie now.

joshua

Ex-member of teams like nOu way, euclan or sereNity. He has got a very rare achievement: he was on the 1st place of 2o2, 3o3 and 5o5 CB Ladders at the same time. He is rated as the best player in Dutch lineup, he will be a player to watch.

We pracced a lot 3on3's at the beginning of the cup, but we were not really playing that well in pracs. Later on we only played a pracc for the offi or none. We didn't expect to win against Estonia, at least I didn't. In the rest of the games I thought we had a better chance to win it than the opponents. I expected us to come far, but not this far.

saKen

With a role of team captain, saKen is the guy that does all the necessary job, also in game. Former member of ictus, sereNity and Accurate is playing together with joshua for a long time already and has got the same rare success as him.

Quote by saKen

We haven't done any special preparations, actually I don't think we've played much since the game vs EE. We're obviously hoping to take this game home and win the tournament. Only time will tell.

sQuid

Playing on the highest level for the shortest period from NL #1 team. He is able to surprise with a decent performance even though he is claiming that winning 7th league in OC is a great achievement for him.

We had no preparations at all I guess, I worked + party'ed all week after that game, we played 1 offi together. But I do think we can do oke since we played a lot together. It kinda depends on how good joshua can carry me. I expect a tight game or a one sided rape from them.

Germany #1 has taken a revenge on Estonia #1 in the Upper Bracket Final. Every single game with them on playoffs stage finished with a decider. Hence we expect them to deliver a great amount of emotions and a close clash between the finalists.

Mouratidis

kReSti with the new nickname but the same, if not greater skill level is carrying his team pretty well. He will be a player to watch from German side. Former Speedlink member is now fragging under rockit tag.

We are playing 3o3's sometimes but not very often. Netherlands are strong so I expect a close final :p

s1LENT

Mostly remembered from Phantoms, devilry and logiX. He is consequently improving. All the efforts taken were rewarded with a place in the Grand Final of 3on3 NationsCup. That's his time to shine. Will he take the opportunity in his hands?

Quote by s1LENT

First of all, I have to thank the admin team, especially Homer for his effort which he put into this cup. I think this cup was successfull with a lot of teams participating and fighting each other to reach the finals.
I'm really happy that we reached the finals since we didn't really prepare much for any match from this NC. All we were playing - 1 - 2 matches right before our officials to get some warmup.
We know our opponents pretty good so that we can say that this match should be very interesting. They are really good 3on3 players with good teamplay who won't let us beat them with ease, thats for sure. May the better team win. I hope this match will be enjoyable for everybody. :)

That player is mostly remember from his performance in energy-WAVE. Several times accused, he has made an impressive appearance on Crossfire Intel Challenge 7, being a great positive surprise.

Quote by gr0ss

We were mostly focusing on 5o5 with Rockit, but anyways we will still play some wars before the final to still enhance a little bit of teamplay. I guess aimwise our teams are quite even. Well, to be self-confident I guess we are able to win 4:2 , though they are pretty strong and I expect a tight and exciting game.
