The obvious favorite heading into the tournament Johan �SK.toxic� Quick faces off against Anton "mouz.Cooller" Singov in the opening match. The visa issues that prevented Quick�s rival from playing in London�s WSVG back in October will not be a problem this time around. His recent appearance at the Ponzan Quake 4 Invitational saw him placing third after being defeated handedly by socrates_ on both Phrantic and Placebo Effect. On the other hand Toxic has done nothing but dominate as of late and should bring his amazing play. Recently taking first in the Intel Summer Championships, Quakecon, KODE5 finals and WSVG London, he looks to take his fifth tournament and continue the sweep.

Even with a headliner of that caliber, the second match is pretty good as well. Johnathan "Fatal1ty" Wendell against Rafik "LoSt-CaUzE" Bryant. Still without a top place finish in a major event this year Fatal1ty looks to take one down early and prevent a drop to the lower bracket early on. A heart-breaking defeat in the finals of rAge 2006 at the hands of �LoSt-CaUzE� left him with a 2nd place finish in South Africa, something he probably hasn�t forgotten. The wins at rAge, KODE5 USA, and a 3rd place finish at WSVG London give the impression that the formerly underestimated LoSt-CaUzE will not be an underdog this time around.

The final two matches Jason "Socrates" Sylka vs. Alexander "Ztrider" Ingarv and James "fnatic.TooGoood" Harding against 3rd. Alessandro "stermy� Avallone promise equally thrilling competition.

I predict toxic giving each opponent a swift kick to the nads and the proceeding to win the tourney.

Quake always has some good match ups.

who's covering the tournament tsn??

Toxic > Cooller
Lost Cause > Fatal1ty
Socrates>Zstrider
Stermy>TooGood

Toxic > Lost Cause
Stermy > Socrates

Toxic > Stermy

GL TOXIC TO WIN

SK.Toxic > mouz.Cooller
Fatal1ty > EG.LoSt-CaUzE
mouz.socrates_ > fnatic//Ztrider
Stermy > fnatic//TooGood

SK.Toxic > Fatal1ty
mouz.socrates_ > Stermy

mouz.socrates_ > SK.toxic

That is my prediction if it's single elimination. I not, I still predict socrates as the winner, just through different matchups.

#FueL-gaming #indiana

awesome~

Please idle #syncline

SWEET! where are the live feeds?

The Muscles From Brussels

I'm original enough to predict toxic as winner.

l�l

socrates wins this unless fat gets some of that finals mojo goin. toxic won't win...thats my prediction. =P

toxic destroys every1 :P

#7 it's double elimination mate!

really nice matches to watch out, one of the better tournament so far with awesome prizes! gl to all competitors :) (go stermy and LC!)

man would been crazy if it was singel elmination!:D toxic vs cooller in the first round... woah :D

SK.Toxic < mouz.Cooller
Fatal1ty > EG.LoSt-CaUzE
mouz.socrates_ > fnatic//Ztrider
Stermy < fnatic//TooGood

mouz.Cooller > Fatal1ty
mouz.socrates_ > fnatic//TooGood

mouz.socrates_ > mouz.Cooller

looks like some great match ups

toxic vs cooller should be exciting

GO TOXIC GO

why do i hate toxic so much ?

where can i find demos??????

i know toxic will most likely win. But FCK it go fat

www.Shoryuken.com

LC/Cooller match better be delayed cause it aint on anywhere.

www.hellothere.com

SOCRATES FTW

Well cooller didn't stand a chance pretty much.

toxic will win as he always does

but socrates should have a good shot

I'm ready for CPL winter, thats when we get to see the real skill :P

Watched Stermy play Galang against Toogood yesterday when I was up at the WSVG Finals and man was he on fire with the railgun. Really oppressive at certain points in the match.

Finals are completely focused on a TV show production, so there is no live broadcasting there which definitely makes spectating live a bit less fun. It should be very interesting to see what the end product looks like though.

gl socrates, toxic is unstoppable

i bet socrates wins and its like God has done something or Toxic lost on purpose 27 years old playing video games hes even more of a role model then Fatal1ty to be on TV he can talk properly as well.

OptiMus: Those ps3 controllers better be rechargeable or this is going to be ridiculous.

Toxic is untouchable.

Every event he just lets everyone know why he is #1.

People don't randomly lose in Quake 4 like some other competitive eSport games.

Toxic is just 2 steps ahead at all times.

Why is socrates on mouz ?

repeLlence - Miami LAN team

#30 he left col a while ago

and wow fat > socrates

I wonder how much Fatality is studying Toxic's patterns tonight. I would be surpised if Fat does not take at minimum 1 map. Should be a good matchup tomorrow.

Fats been practicing, huh...?

Final map was 30-5 for Toxic. And what the HELL happened to Socrates? :(

Cooller needs to retire from gaming.

wow fatal1ty nice

#42 , Fat just now got out of a losing streak I'm sure cooler will too.

Amazing showing by Jonathan Wendel.

Taking 3 maps from what appeared to be an invincible opponent in Johan Quick.

Thought Wendel was going to pull a win out of nowhere and upset Quick there for a second. Though the advantage in Quicks' favor was just far too great for the eSports poster boy to over come. Great games though. Good luck to Wendel in the future, and believe me when I say that this is only the beginning. The name Fatal1ty will not go down without a fight. He will show the world again why he is Fatal1ty, and his name is known by the whole gaming world. Just a great showing.

Fatal1ty made sure there was no Quick, and flawless victory for Toxic this match.

Though Johan Quick did win, perhaps we have seen a flaw in the machine that is Toxic?

lol nice read #45

great games, great event and well done tox and fat

coming soon

Our teamspeak was going crazy in those last matches!!!

Great games to both!!!

#44, Fat actually gives a crap about how he plays, Cooller does not :D

good job fat. I was waiting for him to start using his head again.
