Round 3 (cp_freight): [Which team will have the most train deaths?]
Upper Bracket:
#1 BOSS vs. #27 Antares [MOTW Upper Bracket]
In what will be the most interesting match this week in cevo, Antares will come close to beating BOSS. Closer than any other team in CEVO, but not close enough to win, but close enough to dent their giant ego. If BOSS can't play any of their cevo-p help, they will lose this. However, I highly doubt that BOSS will fail to field carnage and animeman for the playoffs. As much as I would like to see BOSS lose, I don't think they will on freight.
BOSS 5 - 3 Antares
BOSS 5 - 2 Antares
#3 eXpertise vs. #11 Technical Difficulties
eXpertise will not be stopped by any team whose name isn't BOSS.
eXpertise 5 - 0 Technical Difficulties
eXpertise 5 - 1 Technical Difficulties
#4 Rage and Terror vs. #12 KINGS OF BONGO [Sunday]
terrible! volt: Rage and Terror has been quite the disappointment this season, with 3+ recent forfeits due to problems getting people together. I can't imagine they scrim much, though I do know they play. If Bongos have enough practice on Freight they should have the teamwork to take rnt without too much trouble.
Side Note: The forfeits are in ESEA.
Bongos 5 - 2 RnT
Bongos FFW
#13 tribune vs. #18 CLFG [Also worth watching]
This match will be closer than the BOSS vs. Antares game, but it will not be as interesting to spectators. With CLFG pulling off a big win vs. Treason, their drive to win will be enormous. Will it carry them over another upset team that is tribune? It's hard to say, but I believe that tribune will be victorious at the end of the day.
tribune 5 - 4 CLFG
CLFG 5 - 1 tribune
Lower Bracket:
#2 Treason vs. #29 No Questions Asked
Treason needs to get its stuff together after being beaten by CLFG, this is their match to lose. nQa should seize on this opportunity to take the number 2 seed out of commission, but will they be able to pull it off? I don't think Platinum will let Treason get knocked out just yet.
Treason 5 - 3 nQa
Treason 5 - 0 nQa
#5 Bukkake Baptism vs. #24 Epidemic - cheap knockoff [MOTW Lower Bracket]
Epidemic will pull this through by the skin of their teeth in overtime. Expect excellent plays by both team's scouts, but beyond that the coordination and teamwork will be about the same. I believe these teams are very evenly matched, and that will make for a good game.
Epidemic 5 - 4 Bukkake Baptism
Epidemic 5 - 0 Bukkake Baptism
#7 Exultance vs. #21 #pound [Friday]
Exultance has been dropping the ball when they need to be getting on it. These are the playoffs, and #pound will step up their game to take this from Exultance.
#pound 5 - 3 Exultance
Exultance 5 - 0 #pound
#8 Harmonic vs. #28 Team Tactics
Harmonic will take this one without to much trouble from Team Tactics. The superior dm ability will win it for Harmonic at middle, paving the way for their victory.
Harmonic 5 - 1 Team Tactics
Harmonic 5 - 0 Team Tactics
#9 Helix vs. #26 Fatal Universal
Even with some cevo-p help, Helix couldn't take down eXpertise. By the time they play Fatal, I expect the Helix team to have greatly improved coordination. Even now, Helix's dm ability is above that of Fatal's. This matchup should go by quickly, ending entirely in the first half.
Helix 5 - 0 Fatal Universal
Helix 5 - 0 Fatal Universal
#10 Crack Clan AM-NA vs. #17 Just4Fame [Not Scheduled?]
After coming off a very close game versus Antares, Crack Clan will be out to redeem themselves or make up more excuses. I don't expect them to lose here, even though Just4Fame will be trying their best to shut down an aggressive Crack Clan. This game should be closer than what I predict.
Crack Clan 5 - 2 Just4Fame
Crack Clan FFW
#16 Lost Peripherals Gaming vs. #32 Duck Factory
I honestly have no idea what will happen with this match.
Duck Factory 4 - 3 Lost Peripherals Gaming
Lost Peripherals Gaming 5 - 1 Duck Factory
[Derp, I forgot to do StyleFlair vs. Shears]
StyleFlairExtraordinare 5 - 1 Shears
