I've had eight teams remaining in the race for the $100 offer for PGL winner, but also for the important points in the ranking, which helps participants to reach their goal: to participate in the finals of season 3. in ReC 1/8, we had four matches which were held by a single party, the darlings of the winning and matches very easily.

The match between the Eq and Tessa was announced the most balanced, being one of the most awaited start of the 1/8 finals. Unfortunately for viewers, the boys from Eq have managed a fantastic match and they won this game by a score posted by 16-2 (de_nuke_se). Extremely good developments of Ibraim "SeDaN Sedan and Valentin "Hakk_ZH" S. in have tipped the balance in favor of those of the Eq. Even if we were expecting a more consistent game from the boys of Tessa, they have not managed to mobilize for this game, but it certainly will not give up, and in the second stage, they will return stronger and better prepared.

The other three matches of optimal, played all of de_nuke_se have been no story, there are clear favorites in front of the cases:

GonnaHate vs MyrmidonI 2-16 (2-13, 0-3)

Airwalk! vs iNkey 16-1 (15-0, 1-1)

LEGACY vs. halfAwake 16-2 (14-1, 2-1)

Finally, we found the best four teams of the first stage and I reached the penultimate phase: semi-finals.

In the first semi-final of the boys – Eq – led by sedans, it competes the CS:S shinning star, called MyrmidonI. Even though in the second phase, hell and his teammates, needed extra time to pass "some magic", everyone is expecting an intense match. The teams we are disappointed, we were offered a show on honor, and we remembered the former duels in CS 1.6 of TeG and Eq.

The match took place on a map of de_inferno_se and started well enough for MyrmidonI (T), who managed to win the first round of pistols, leading the score at 3-0 in their favor. The boys of Eq (CT) fell back, at one point leading 5-4. After the first part, the score was 9-6 in favor of Eq players, and everyone expects a good response on the part of Myrmidoni.

The second part began in style with which he finished first: Eq has controlled the start and managed to gather 4 rounds in their favor. However, nothing was done! After a very good evolution, MyrmidonI have managed to push the match into extra time. After a short break, the MyrmidonI have demonstrated that they have stronger nerves, managing to win the match in a very contested finale with score: 21-22 (2-3, 4-1)

In the other semi-final they meet Airwalk! and LEGACY. Even if this match Airwalk! start your favorite team that has managed to earn a place in the finals of the first stage was the LEGACY. The match was exciting. After a first part in which Airwalk led 9-6, his team has managed to turn the LEGACY result, winning the second half with a 10-4, and finally the match 16-14.

And the next steep that we will have related is the PGL ReC3 #1 winners.
