BFB 2 Teams Overview III
Overview: Part III
Better late than never! I finally can present to you the 3rd part of our teamoverview series. As promised we do have some interesting information about Queens, mPG, a.ToOn and zero Empathy. Enjoy reading!
Queens
Queens and their new roster is a team all participants will learn to fear and respect. They were nearly included in every top3 prediction I got so far - and not for nothing. With great aimers like butchji, xperia or freeze and the one and only phyzic they really have one hell of a lineup. Additionally the long time player razz and the objective minded chry will complete their lineup and with the rifle support coming from wiaderko I am sure that this team is able to cause some big upsets. The Queens claimed some awesome achievements in their past and in case they can keep up their motivation, I am sure they will be able to add another pocal to their hall of fame!
Current lineup:
The superb mix will play against the new zZz team and although they have a strong core of Team Hungary gamers I see this game becoming one of the more predictable ones. Tune this Tuesday in and see if I am right!

[bInterview with chry[/b]]
Hey chry, my first question is: Why do you leave Queens and join NBS for the ET Master Lan? Was there really no chance in getting an own Queens lineup attending?
Only because razz dont wanna go to the lan and butchji isnt sure about the lan either. Same with freeze - but me and xperia gonna team up and look for a team or try to make something.
Ok, sad to hear. Nevertheless back to Queens. We do see 7 players in the current GTV lineup. Can you release your final six for tomorrow already?
No, unfortunately not. razz is the boss and picks the lineup but even tho I dont think it really matters who plays from the 7guys since they are all good players.
By going through your opponent`s side. What player do you fear most?
I dont really fear any of them I think they are all basically around the same level and we shouldnt have any problems with them.
Ok - so you go for a clear 4:0 victory?
Yes we will go for a clear 4-0 victory!

mPG
Although some funny community users are shouting “miNd`s pro gayming” the mPG originally stands for miNd`s pro gaming and if you go through their lineup it really is a pro gaming team. Names like Clown, drago or perfo will recall mementos in most of the users brains and if not I am sure they will after the whole Battle for Berlin II tournament! I recommend every user to spec at least one game because whether you are playing rifle, fieldop or even medic...you will learn something from those guys!
Current lineup:
miNd and co will play against the Devastation team and I would say the same as for the match above - it will be a more or less one sided game but interesting for all people motivated enough to improve their own skills by watching high quality players.
[bInterview with miNd[/b]]
Your first opponent is Devastation, you are the clear favorite. Do you think you will have an easy bash?
I expect us to take the game down quite easily, but we should not underestimate the opponent. Hopefully it will be a good game and a good prac for us for the bigger games.
Have you signed up to win the prizes sponsored by Razer? Or just for the fun?
Both, it motivates more to play with some prizes, but biggest reason to signup was the amount of proper competition to play for, lots of good teams et cetera - something we haven`t seen on ET for while.
Do you actually play with one of Razer`s great products?
Nah, I used to have razer mice&pad but it was time for a change and I switched back to g400 and other pad.
Talking about your strongest contenders: We just heard that chry might play for the NBS side on the ET Master Lan. Do you think this fact can harm Queens current online performance?
Dont think so, it should be pretty obvious for him to put Queens over NBS for online plays / pracs, and as far i know they have done really well in pracs so far
What about Anexis? They have won their first game against STAR.et without any problems. Were you able to spec the game last night and if so have you discovered any weak points?
Wasn`t able to spec the game yesterday, was busy praccin' with mPG! I dont know too much about anexis atm, I think they play solid but not on their full potential yet!

a.ToOn
a.ToOn has done a last minute signup for the Battle for Berlin II tournament and some might be very surprised to see them getting one of the hightly competitive cup spots but I think the decision is plain - I mean by going through their lineup we do see some great individuals as well as some brilliant gamers with a hell of a ingame knowledge. They team around Artstar, who just joined one of the long time Enemy Territory gaming supporters #a.ToOn, and at the same time they were able to give their roster another boost by adding kartez and tornis. As you all know the team just got formed an instance before Easter and thus I can`t give you an impressive list of achievements nor any interesting matches to watch on demand.
Current lineup:
Their first match will be against the strong TAG side but with an intense praccing schedule I see the a.ToOn guys living up to their expectations and with a bit of luck they might even surprise.
[bInterview with Artstar[/b]]
Hey Artstar, some rumors said your team was not able to pracc really often due to you being on holidays - can you confirm that?
Yeah I guess, I spent 7 days at my girlfriends house so we kinda fell behind on practices. but since I got back we've been practicing :)
Sounds good. You just joined aToOn and recruited two new players. Have you had any other tryouts or were the two just the best and perfect option for the upcoming tournament?
We didn't really have any 'tryouts' :p I just recruited people I knew weren't retarded ingame or on ts. There was a bit of a screwup with lack of communication (my fault I guess) and we ended up making replacements.
Your first opponent will be TAG. Do you think you can stand a chance against those awesome guys?
They're a strong team, maybe not the most active but individually powerful and they've got experience playing with each other as well as much more high level experience than my team, I have no idea how it will turn out but TAG are definitely favourites.
Have you played with any of the Razer products?
I've been using the Razer Deathadder for around 5 years now (replaced it once), I previously did own a Razer Mantis and Razer Barracuda but as the years went by I replaced them with other brands.
And can you recommend their products?
I always recommend the DeathAdder when people ask about mice, I've never had problems with it other than kinda breaking it myself after 4 years of use.
a.ToOn predicted the following outcome of BFB2 sponsored by Razer:
zero Empathy
Although the BFB II tournament has not started the team playing under the zero Empathy wings already won an award. They are by far the most stable and stanch team around the Enemy Territory scene. inteRaction might be more familiar to the oldschoolers and the core lineup around denton, GreenClon and milhAus have not just participated in all kind of online competitions like CB OC Fall or Spring season, ESL Cups, ESL EMS or random 1Day tournaments but also attended offline events hosted in their county (e.g. BYOC PARTY 2011 Cachovice, Kosmonosy LAN) and one of the famous Crossfire LAN ( CIC 7) where they came 2nd in the consolation tournament. By going through their achievements you will notice their pocals ranging back to 2008 and this fact is their biggest plus factor. They know each other for such a long time and are used to play alongside...that`s why this team is my personal favorite to surprise and with just 4 teams seeded behind them it is merely a matter of form to top this rating.
Current lineup:
Their first match will be against the impressive Mouse-Control side but it seem`s that their newest player addition unhinge them - they just lost against the lower seeded NBS crew in their #et.tourney game. Nevertheless it will be a busy task for the nearly all-Czech side to outaim the self-proclaimed mice. I cross my fingers for the friendly zeroE team but overall I guess this match will end in a 4:2 for mCon.

[bInterview with Testi[/b]]
Your first opponent is Mouse-Control, what do you expect of this encounter?
I think its gonna be a hard match. We just completed our line up, because one wasnt able to make it to the lan. Mousecon is playing together for quite some time, with really good results. We might have a chance, but its gonna be a hard first match. We might come far if everything falls together!
You just completed your lineup? What does this mean? Tell us the newest transaction!
Unfortunately Sisha couldn't make it to the lan, so we took Mental on our side as 6th for the ET Masters!
You are from the Netherlands and playing in a nearly all-Czech roster. How does this work out?
Well, for now it feels good. They talk english on comms and before me they also played with l4mpje and ridji, so they are familiar with english speaking on teamspeak. So, untill now i feel quite comfortable playing with inteRaction.
Do you know why your team moved from iR to zero Empathy?
Well, zeroE wanted to do more in the ET scene and picking up interAction was a good choice, since they are quite stable, with good results in the past and possible in the future!
You are one of the only players predicting Queens as number 1 and not Anexis. Is there a bigger meaning behind it?
Well, i heard rumors that Queens already beat anexis in praccs, and i think that the combination of players might just be the key to win BFB2. They are all very active and they got aimwise the strongest line up in this cup.
Do you actually play with one of Razer`s great products?
Yea, I play with some of Razer's great products, they are good and they have a good customer-support, for when something is wrong.
