haha, nightfall in mm1 at the end of the game was like 'no matter how much trash i talk about 1.6 players you guys transferred well'.. but not so fluently.. in like 5 lines babbling

and everyone on complexity ignored him and it was funny.

why the hell are they playin so early int he morning

GET SOME COL!!!! GET SOME!!!!

where are you 1.6 fanbois?????

NIGHTFALL BABY!!!!

#justlikewatchingbrazil

I'm with eager waiting to see how the 1.6 fanboys explain coL:s loss on d2 of all maps. Especially since badapples played with 120ms :D

0mg how good was badapples! gg from nightfall too, fr0d didnt know what had hit him. gg

Does anyone know how many spectators watched the match ?

So what was the final score? I missed it cause of company :(

Does anyone know the reason for the current dead air?

Too many it seems like, as everything appears to be overloaded. The first game was indeed a good game to watch, I hope the remaining will be so too. ^_^

hrmm coL loses : )

coL back to 1.6 , is your place!!!

why is GFTV not working I've had it on for 25 minutes... I only see ugly figurines ...

Life is what you make of it. Dreams are what you live for.

My gotfrag tv is all choppy can anyone help me fix it? i have FIOS 20/5 and that cant even stream it good enough.

compLexity losing online?!?! FLABBERGHASTING!

efg got destroyed lolol

Hmm, paradox playing for EFG...

Just ringing, or is EFG going to pick him up?

team 3d > efg / hyper :P

nice 3D!

"coL back to 1.6, is your place!"

you are an IDIOT lol. this is _the_ first match they have lost in a tournament so far, no. if anyone should be ashamed its EFG who lost to Team 3D now. buck up and admit your source teams are bad a lot of the time, thankyou

go EFG

wish the stream was steady, tired of hitting stop play every minute... jeeeeez

nice to see 3D doing well :) wp to Hyper so far as well

Amazing coverage today, thanks.

nightfall seems to be doing well

zuN

So much for #1 in America.

i thought EFG was supposed to be really good? oh well not everyone has a good tourney :\ but gj coL and 3D tearing it up and making nightfall eat his words! :D

#redZone 4 lyfe

efg 0-3 lololololol

remember one of EFG's members isnt playing and another is completely inactive due to other issues. They are using a ringer and didnt practice. I am not saying they would have beaten everyone if this were not the case but it would have been alot tougher for everyone to beat them :)

coL rlz, EFG hahaha

well billeHt it doesn't help with the issues EFG has been having as of late. Hyper is definetly hanging in there. Infact, there's no clear prowess from any one team.

#11, no it was two lines. and it wasn't transferred it was "transitioned" but they did ignore him.
although I'm a coL fan, I knew Hyper's practice routine and anticipation of these upcoming matches overweighed most of the other teams. It's quite obvious that Hyper did prepare for this and they've proven themselves capable of going against the top teams, which is why I don't just look at one team, #17, but I also pay attention to the teams that have worked hard to get where they're at. I'm glad coL lost that match actually, because it proves there is competition out there and I'd like to see more of it.

This would have went so much different on LAN, and if anybody doubts this he's an idiot. Every ping over 60 gives you an disadvantage, over 100 is absolute shit.

coL wins? =)

doesnt matter, col wins in the end and hyper falls to a 3D team they clearly underestimated. I would have rather seen 3d v col in the finals but w.e, they put hyper in their place.

nightfall doesnt deserve mvp , he didnt play that well .
