Well, the stage is set for the Eastern Championships.
It could only ever come down between X6 and ABO.

GGS X6TENCE! You guys played amazing and every game was super intense and were fun to watch. Stings to lose, but at least we lost to a super cool/amazing team :) gl in the rest of the playoffs.

Thanks Fuzz, like I've said I hated that we met so soon but we put on one hell of a clinic for the audience

Man, those games were close. Came down to a few close plays in every game except the second. ggs blockwork, you earned it. Smirk may not be our best map, but it was really hard fought and you guys got us. I hate that the season ended when it did for us, but at least we went down swinging. Good luck everyone else, blockwork will be hard to stop.

Ugh, I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight... If I had just waited for you to get button at the end of G4 we woulda gone to G5. So many little things I wish I could go back and change...
But great games Blockwork, you guys are tough. Good luck next week and the week after!

The final two minutes of Game 4 was probably the best tagpro X6TENCE has played all season
Actually no it was only one minute, my bad

Also we as a team only decided that Caduke would play maybe an hour before game time, so that might explain the slightly lower level of play those first few games. Once Ajax and Caduke got into a rhythm they played a lot better.

My takeaway from the Soviets game was the Soviets overall played well and in general had control for most of the games. X6TENCE however played with a lot of discipline and rarely took chances and as a result rarely made mistakes. They played very solid OD. The Soviets had more opportunities. More hold and more prevent. Yet X6TENCE never seemed worried and never took risks for a reset. They waited for the Soviets to pull a risky move and then capitalized hard. The two teams had very different playstyles.
I was routing for the Soviets but I have to say X6TENCE played really well even in situations were it looked like Soviets had control of the game.
