After pool play it looked like a zEx against u5 Final was in the works but 3D wrecked that part in impressive fashion showing flashes of what made them the 2002 Winter CPL Champions. They�ll get a chance to prove that sentiment along with adding $3k to the bank roll today when they take on u5.

United5 has been the most consistent team in the tournament with its only blemish against 3D in a tie during pool play. This should leave us with a great final between two teams who are looking for a big boast heading into CAL-I play Monday. Both teams come from Group 1 who was really outshined by Group 2 in the initial pool play.

Don�t forget about the 3rd place game either as Meepins looks to take down Group 2 winner zEx in a rematch. zEx won the first one in GGL play but Meepins has still looked good throughout the tournament. Prize money really isn�t at stake here though as both teams will take away $500 but both know a 3rd place finish here will go a long way towards building respect heading into CAL-I.

This should be the "MATCH OF THE TOURNAMENT". I really hope 3D wins this to prove they still are the #1 team in the US, but it would be nice to see u5 win a big tourny w/ the new lineup. Can't wait! My predictions for this match is 3D[2] - u5[0]. :P Ksharp is on fire!

Come on TEAM3D, win this.

Just another name on the wall.

Team 3D has it, no problem.

i thought it was 5 grand total?

I've got mad respect for both of these teams, but being selfish... I'd love to see this go 3 maps. GL to both teams!

wot time will that be in GMT ?

oldskool

#7, EST = +6hours, CST = +7hours, and PST = +9hours.

The severity of an itch is inversely proportional to the ability to reach it.

GMT is EST plus 5 hours...

so the final will be at 3am :(

(and they usually start late so lets say 3.30/4)
should be an awesome match, but i'll have to watch the demo :(

GOOOOO u5 :)

7pm PST !!! Ill be there!

go ZEX!! W00T

I heard ksharp quit playing lineage.. prolly why hes so hot, kinda makes me hot just thinking about it.

Finals:
7 PM PST
9 PM CST
10 PM EST
3 AM GMT
4 AM CST

3rd Place:
5 PM PST
7 PM CST
8 PM EST
1 AM GMT
2 AM CST

It would be cool if the match was packed into a tv show. Demos are cool, but if you really want to see everything or even the highlights it just takes toooooo loooooong.

#14

Don't watch and wait for someone to post an article about the match. =P

If 3D plays like they did last night they will probably win, but if they play like they have consistently been doing for the last year 3D is going 2 and out.

moto online -> 3D wins
moto lan -> u5 wins

Winning one game doesn't make them "#1" again, they still have to make up for some very grevious losses.

yeah...GL to both teams.. but ehh.. GO 3D! you got my support.. ! :)

3D vs. u5

wow #17 you are truly a retard who's probably been playing cs for like 2 months

#17 You masternook or ph33r ?

"I really hope 3D wins this to prove they still are the #1 team in the US"

winning an online tournament does not make you #1 again

They were suppose prove to the world that they're still #1 in eswcqualifier, cpl, and everlan but what happen to the outcome......

news flash 3d is not the #1 or #2 team in america

GL u5 and 3d

go go go!!

cant wait 4 results

[B]InstantKarma[/B]

why #20? 3d BLOWS on LAN, name the last time they placed top anything in any international lan -- besides the CPL they won in ONE POINT FIVE. GO shoot yourself now, and then come up with a better name.

ooOoo flame-age

1st cpl, 2nd wcg, 3rd cpl

#22, then they must be number 3 team right? I mean they beat Rival twice.

I bring the HEAT like Val Kilmer.

i want 3d pov demos :(

~ #hoes cal-im ~ 0-0-0 ~

do it 3d ... do it!

I be with u5 all the way...GO SUNMAN...u5 2-1

WORLD PEACE

what about the HLTV? I can't get the right match from "hltv.gotfrag.com:3102" - Just some American dumbass playing noobpublic :D.

#32, It was cancelled.

Where?

3rd place cancled -_- .. . . .. . .

The first place game better be good.

Go 3D. If Ksharp plays the way he has been, 3D has.
But if Josh plays well it will be a gret match.

GL to both :)

Decent source/valve rant, i'll give it 4/5. -Cobalt

How can you cancel a match for money? More info on that please.

gl to both, i'm a 3d fan, but always liked tsg, and some u5 guys(most gone though), but with the merger, i'm on the band wagon

so.....

u5 fan now i guess, but 3d, rival are close behind, all i really care about is it going 3 maps

#35 I think they both get $500 regardless of the outcome so its more like a scrim to them.

meh, I was looking forward to meepins/zex

i do not support u5 but we got 2 admit 3d r losers. How the hell did they won against #1 usa team rival THIS TOURNAMENT IS SHOCKING !!. I hope my commnet doesnt affect 3d supporters but in this match ehhhh,sorry but GO U5. 3D used 2 own the game in 2002-2003 but now THEY ARE WORST THEN EVER!!>.
