In-game leader
Andrew 'Irukandji' Timmerman told SK Gaming:"Although we only lost 1 map throughout the LAN, it was actually one of the more competitive American LANs that I can remember. I know it was a very big deal for EG to defend their championship (I wasn't on the roster for last season) especially since there were a lot of strong teams this time around."

Sorry for not getting it done this time but UMX.US will definitely keep fighting. Congratulations to EG and DINCNESS on their lower bracket run which should also be noticed and respected.
