X3O locked down the WCG USA Championship title, and secured for themselves a trip to the World Finals in Cologne, Germany.
(
Los Angeles, CA) -- After two intense days of group and bracket play, we will conclude the third with X3O in the final bracket awaiting their opponent. All three teams have been competing in both the WCG and Extreme Masters tournament which has taken a toll on each team. Losses from the European teams in the EM tournament have brought hopes down at times but that looks to change as they take center stage to represent the United States.

and it says the grand finals is before the lower bracket finals. weird.
While EG placed 2nd at this WCG quali and 3rd at ESL compared to x3o's 7-8th at ESL and their first at WCG.
EG came out with $13,500 while x3o came out with 15,000 while not even getting in the money in one of the events. Just goes to show you how much more money there is in counter-strike if you win any tournament.
Nonetheless, a great event with quite a few you-had-to-be-there matches, can't wait for the next one!
