Some very good games have been played this round in the play-offs! Some matches were down to the last match before it was clear whowas moving on, let's take a look.

#1 Firestalker versus #8 DkH Multigaming e.V. [DkH]

Fs started out strong with a 2:0 win in the twos. So DkH quickly fell and needed a much needed win. Following that series, the DkH MVP known as DkH.WarchiefRich stepped up and placed a convincing 2:0. The series was all tied up when DkH.RaiN closed off Fs's season with a 2:0 victory of his own.

#1 Fs [1:2] #8 DkH

#4 no Excuses [nE] vs #5 Latest and Greatest [LaG.TT]

Next in the brackets we had the mighty french team versus DanGer and gang. We were hoping for a great clanwar and we got it. This series also was lopsided on the 2s and the seasons best 2s team nE.Arxn0t & nE.CorNoX dominated 2:0. Things were looking grim for LaG early but shortly LaG's MVP DaNger stepped it up and won his match, right after that Anima beat his fellow countryman 2:0 as well.

#2 Clan OwNu [o_O] vs #7 Riders of Storm [RoS]

Team USA was up in this match, and things didn't look so hot early. The Savior took down his opponent Nuance pretty easily 2:0. Right after that the 2s went into play were RoS took game 1. Things looking shaky for the number 2 seed, ALL STAR FK & META stepped up there game and clawed back to a 2:1 victory! Then FK finished it off later 2:0'ed the mythical player known as MinM.

#2 o_O [2:1] #7 Ros

#3 EGiS Gaming [EGiS] vs #6 n2o Gaming . us [n2o]

Last but not least the first match that took place over the week was the heavily favorited EGiS vs n2o. Both teams have shown up strong over the season, but in the fight EGiS was "too strong". Despite the stream hacking accusations and map hack accusations, FoCuS was able to come back from being down 0:0 to Flipstar and win soundly 2:0. Gloryfades put up a fight vs LawLiet barely losing 1:2.

#3 EGiS [3:0] #6 n2o

I've switched the playoffs back to standard 4 1v1s and 1 2v2 for the reason being it is now round 2. I just wanted to test the other format out, but know that next season's format will be a lot different!

The winners of this round will play in the championship and the losers will also play each other for 3rd/4th place. Good luck to all teams!
