actually tusas getting out of group play means there are 8 teams left so u'd have to win a match after that to place 5-6th to be in the money.

I dunno after Mibr's inferno lan showing I wouldn't be surprised if fnatic/eg/x3o beat them. Think SK should take this pretty handily though.

As much as I hate quebec players/teams I am pretty disappointed that Olibraz hasn't found a good team to play on yet he seemed like he'd be a break out player

MIBR has the best players, but they are too YELLOW how we say here in Brasil when someone is just frightened by a little pressure. So I guess they won't go far if they keep this attitude, good luck anyways.

Fnatic vs mibr
sk vs fnatic
sk vs mibr

What will it be? ;O

#23, we have enough for 2 CS matches at a time, but we only want to play groups A+B today and as teams have dropped out it means we can now only have 1 match at a time

j1n gets invited and doesn't go, good lan dodging skills as usual...oh well i guess that's expected considering they don't even attend their local lans
