This double elimination tournament will determine who is the CEVO Season 8 Open Champion. The Upper Bracket contains teams that have not lost in playoff play. The Lower Bracket contains teams that must win or go home!
Upper Bracket -
#1 Immortal 6 aka The Phamacy (10-0) vs. #5 Police InJustice (9-2)
Immortal 6 came out swinging to take the first round but then dropped the second. The contest ended in a 4-1 victory for Immortal 6 but not before some interesting battles. Both teams used a heavy and sniper at different times as the battle required solid death match play. Wejen (Police) equipped the Sydney Sleeper with impressive results. The Injustice Team felt the need to use such a weapon to combat the efficiency of both Beat and Spadez, two snipers for I6. Spadez had a rather impressive showing as he racked up 42 kills and a match high 3.56 kill/assists per death.
JJ, Injustice medic, was able to deploy more ubers (18 to 15) and dropped fewer (1 to 2) than the I6 medic, Metalsnake. Metalsnake did win the efficiency battle as he was able die less and recorded a better kill assist per death ratio (2.5 to 1.4). Wejen, team lead for Police, was intrigued by the different class combinations and would have like to kritz his heavy, Icosahedron, more. There is plenty of fight left in the Injustice as they are "looking forward to a rematch in the finals."
