Say hello to quarter finals of European Duel League #6! First round of playoffs was delayed more than we expected, but we are glad that the controversial match ( optimus -  turricane) was finally played. Almost all matches from 1/4 finals have been played already, so let me write a little summary.
Matches in 1/4
Damiah - Assasin  ()
This match was quite shameful from Assasin's side, since he couldn't bear Damiah's pressure for more than 2 maps, and after 2nd map he disconnected without any wish to finish the match. Both played maps were quite one sided (27:0 - q2rdm2; 47:1 - q2duel1), but since Assasin didn't want to finish the match, overall result is wo. Is Damiah going to scare his another opponent  Gerdt? Let's hope not.
Gerdt - Pogo  ()
I believe that Gerdt's clear victory over Pogo was a surprise for most players since he's usually considered more as a TDM player than a dueller. I didn't see the match, but from the screenshots I assume that Gerdt showed some nice performance on all maps, hence the result is 3:0. Will Gerdt show another surprising performance and give his next opponent some hard time?
purri - optiMus (not played yet)
I've heard a lot of .ru fans saying that optiMus has a chance to win one or two maps if he gets his nerves under control and won't make many mistakes. We all know that any mistake can be turned into opponent's favor and change the overall result of the match, but will optiMus be able to keep his play on top, without any mistakes against purri? In official matches, just hearing the name of strong opponent makes one nervous, but in a playoffs' match where you can either win or lose everything, and your opponent's name is purri, it takes hell of a player to get his play under control.
syanid - jakkari ()
syanid's victory was expected by most players, but jakkari's inability to win at least one of his home-maps was quite surprising. syanid showed some confident play, but is his performance going to be enough to beat his next opponent which will be either purri or optiMus?
To our surprise all played matches (3 out of 4) ended with one sided 3:0 result. Maybe purri vs optiMus match will be different, so let's wait for it!
Good luck & have a fun in remaining matches! |

Optimus vs Turricane game is forced to be replayed by admin decision. The game which was won by Optimus 3:0, was not played under a fair conditions. It was discovered later, that all Turricanes say_team messages (timers mostly) were seen by Optimus during all of the maps without Turricane knowing about it. Knowing your opponents every timing of an armor or a weapon is a huge advantage for a player and can be considered as a cheat. Optimus should have told Turricane or the admin of the game about seeing those binded messages, but he did not. The unfairness of this game and the unjustified advantage Optimus had from seeing the timing binds, is a reason that we admins decided, that the game must be replayed. The new deadline for this game is sunday 16th of march. |
