written by gb angrykid on 23.04.06 21:58
After almost three hours full of invitational announcements, the ClanBase Enemy Territory EuroCup XIII is ready to boot up and start it's journey. Each EC season is packed with high-skilled matches that shows off every corner of the pro-gaming spectrum. Last season's ET EC might have started off slow but it ended with an explosive final that has increased interest in ET; and that's not only the guys that play it.

We run through a complete recap of tonight's #EuroCup announcement.

Enemy Territory EuroCup XIII starts this week with twelve qualifier matches to determine who makes it into the final select few for the chance to claim a prize. While ET saw a drop in prize money this season, GGL & ClanBase will be splitting $1000 between the winning teams.
QuoteGold: $600
Silver: $300
Bronze: $100
ClanBase announced a maplist of six this season which matches that of the OpenCup minus battery which took the least votes in a recent opinion poll.

When they needed to announce the ET-Teams, they tuned in into your cast and surprise, surprise you started announcing them in that exact moment and did their job. They had a good laugh. Good show ;)

HB|humm3l - "6v6 Et now mid #highbot"

Some of these teams are just laughable... teams get picked cuz they have played a long time together or becouse they are from a certain country... they still LACK the skill to play EC.

this is rubbish... EC should be abt skill not where u come from...

*insert random whine etc etc*

I could make a nice list but i dont wanna point fingers to much... i just think they whole concept of decideing which clans to play is rubbish. maybe host somesort of league or official tournament to decide who plays or something... since the admins obviusly aint cabable of decideing... or even better.... let me decide :)
