This news post will serve as one for announcing / confirming a few things. Firstly the small stuff.
For all those who dont know this from the journals already i'm afraid to say that
Xionn will no longer be participating in the CPC2 cup with Impact due to some real life issues.
Replacing him in the team is the Finnish player mystic. Having played with the likes of Xpaz, Raveneye and Tiigeri before in Parodia and A-Monkeys he fits straight into the team.
I'd also like to announce that the Impact Gaming[/u] website is now online and whilst not only providing you with the latest information on the team and the players it will also play host to the ET masters tournament that myself, mthd and the rest of the staff at Impact are organising.
Now on to the ET Masters[/u] tournament. What is it?
Its an invite only tournament consisting of 16 of the highest skilled teams competing for glory and prize money totalling 250 Euros. The design of the cup is to help prepare the teams for the forthcoming CPC2 tournament whilst also providing some top level ETTV matches for the spectators.
Tournament Format
The tournament will consist of 16 teams. Initially starting with a group stage and 4 teams per group. Each team will play each other once and the top 2 teams from each group will then proceed into a double elimination knockout stage.
The tournament although identical to Eurocup in format will be designed to hopefully run at a much faster pace with 2 games per week. Schedules permitting for the teams there will be a Sunday game and a midweek (Wednesday) game.

2 low Skilled 4 them ? :D
teKoa > Dignitas
where is it >>Dignitas<< ????
imo finnally a cup without the best team there is atm dignitas , this is gonna be more exciting, and it gives other highskilled teams chance to win something ^^ better
thats unfair with dignitas xDD
actually we asked dignitas, but r3vers is on holiday for part of the tournament
ok wont miss them xDD
i rly see np if dignitas plays in tournament. just, rest of the teams should start counting places taken at tournament -1, e.g. zP was 2nd - so they were 1st, bm was 3rd, so they were 2nd, defs were 4th, so they were 3rd :D
Impact -ZP
will be great final :>
will be great final :>

OOOMMMFFFGGGG MYSTIC :D
the groups are really badly balanced, B and C are much stronger, tough luck for anyone who won't get to the finals.
only group D is not strong, group A has zP!, by many chosen as team thats gonna win, though i hope impact gaming owns them all
Group D has vib with their new squad... mAus, sacc, danone, asd, murDa, vila...
imo they are not weak... they could even be one of the three best teams

zP will win
