Yo,
The third day at ESWC 07 has been quite interesting, lots of good teams has been knocked out today and there has been some very wierd results. NiP draw against Dignitas, ID Gaming beating mibr, TR.Victory draw against PGS.
The playoff bracket didn't turn out too fair though if you ask me, as all the teams I think would have a shot for the top3 ended up facing eachother in the quarter or semi-final instead.
69N vs fnatic could have been the final and I think the one that wins between PGS and fnatic in the semi-final tomorrow will win the entire tournament.
The highlight of the day for me so far was to watch PGS vs NiP, as I was sitting right behind LUq who was playing on one of the stages... He was just crazy! There is really nothing that can stop PGS when LUq or Neo has a good day, and today LUq definitley had one. As T on nuke he did some really crazy stuff, for example the 8th round when they planted in the upper bombsite and he went back in the lobby, up on T roof and sprayed a few shouts trough - which killed one of the NiP players (2vs2). As CT he continued and made 2 crazy headshots in the pistolround (1vs2). Just amazing to see CS live when they have such a nice setup for spectators here on ESWC. The crowd was wild after seeing LUq doing his crazy stuffs.
Was kind of cool to see the players writing the tactics also, as PGS had one round called "wNv" and the entire wNv CS team who were sitting right behind me noticed and got pretty excited! :)
The SK girls are doing amazing (as usual?!) ;) and will be playing the grand final against E-Honor from China soon on the main stage. Unfortunately alice lost her bag with all her gaming equipment in it, but hopefully she found something similar to it, so that they can win the final!
I'm off to watch it right now actually, let's pray for them to win!
