MYM beat emuLate to meet Fnatic in SEC final

ImageFor the fourth time in a row the Polish team from Meet Your Makers has qualified to the Samsung Euro Championship final. They will meet their arch rivals Fnatic in the match for redemption and a gold medal on Sunday.



MYM defeated World Cyber Games champions emuLate in the lower bracket final of SEC 16-11 after a very strong performance as Terrorists and a relatively poor one as CT. This qualifies them to tomorrow's grand final of the event where they will need to beat their Swedish opponents 2-0 in maps in order to take a gold medal.

It seems like SEC is team Poland's tournament - in 2005 they won the gold that put them in the spotlight for the first time, in 2006 they won a silver in CS:Source and last year they lost to SK Gaming in the final. This year their medal collection increases by one again.

The theme for tomorrow's final will definitely be redemption. More than winning the gold, both teams will have to prove something to their fans and the people around them.

For Meet Your Makers it is a chance to close one of the ugliest chapters in the lineup's history: poor performances in recent months and problems with their previous organisation. Fnatic will want to redeem themselves for the absolutely terrible Extreme Masters II finals.

The stakes are very high and the fans could not have asked for better circumstances of the final. Two of the best teams of modern Counter-Strike will duke it out at 10:00 CET tomorrow. Follow the match right here.
