For the first time ever, the CAL-I finals were held at the CPL on LAN between the two finalists, zEx and Rival. Despite the lack of scorebot, HLTV was up and running for most of the match. After a strong first half 8-4 score for zEx, Rival stormed back to win the second half 9-3 to win the CAL-I SX championship.

Rival over zEx 13-11(4-8 as CT)(9-3 as T)

Congratulations to Rival for winning CAL-I Season 10! Despite HLTV going down the final few rounds, there are a few things to consider here. Past CPL events saw no HLTV available for the first few days where single elimination bracket matches were played before the 32 team double elimination play started. The CPL Staff is still at work fixing the network and stabilizing the internet connection to provide HLTV master proxies and scorebot coverage on irc. Check back tomorrow morning as the official CPL tournament matches get underway with single elimination matches.
