Crossfire ET-Cup - Brackets and Top3 rating!

In less then 48 hours the first Crossfire ET-Cup for 8 invited teams will be over and thus it is time to announce the official brackets for the one day cup! Additionally I was able to create a top3 rating by asking all the teamcaptains for their personal opinion about the outcome of the tournament. Check below for the brackets, maps and the most predicted winner and do not forget to vote for which game should be casted by DtS and voice in the first round!

With just 8 invited teams it was quite hard to establish a good and exciting tournament without a discriminating treatment for one of the teams. Thus we talked about different match ups and after some discussions the following tournament tree was created by wra1th - big thanks to him and to biggz for the other great graphics!



The first round has to be played right at 20.00 CET on Frostbite and Radar - with Adlernest as Decider.
The second round is scheduled for 21.15 CET on sw_Goldrush_te and Adlernest - with Bremen_b3 as Decider.
And the final/3rd place match doesn`t have a forced mapset - teams got their free choice (normal CB OC/EC 6v6 mappool) and is scheduled for 22.15 CET!

At least 1 player of each team has to idle #Crossfire for better communication and the admin team will add the matches to GamesTV.org! If you got any problems feel free to pm either SPU9 / Artstar or MerlinatoR @ Quakenet or right here on Crossfire!

And here is the rating I have introduced at the very beginning:

I gathered the opinions of every invited team to create a Top3 rating.
In other words I just asked the teamcaptain or a representative of each participant for their 3 personal favorites. For an entry on #1 the team got 3 points - for a #2 place 2 points, #3 place 1 point. Afterwards I divided the overall score by the number of teamcaptains (8) to get an average rating. A team could achieve a maximum rating of 3 and the winner has nearly done so.

#1 Queens => 2,88
#2 Sick6 => 1,25
#3 turbot => 1

With just 1 player voting Queens not as the ET-Cup winner the guys around razz and Clown are clear favorite and with such a strong lineup on paper they have already set a course.

Keep your eyes on CF (do not forget to vote for which game should be casted by DtS and voice)and the GamesTV.org schedule and check if this prediction list is accurate - good luck and have fun to everybody involved and stay tuned for the second part of the teamoverviews!
