The best way to describe this match was each team was going to lose at least one game for sure. There was no chance that the away team would be able to pull off a victory away from home in this matchup. Servers were horrible for each away team. Pings were easily 30 to 200 then 200 to 30, so it was who can kill the most at home to decide the outcome of this matchup. With the ever growing problem with the NA team, There is never really any leadership or organization. So generally someone had to step up and try to sort this game out for them. With the lack of avaible admins at the time, I was forced to admin my own nation's matchup against Lithuania for 2 of 3 games. Orginally apunts from Portugal was supposed to do it but the chosen servers by both teams kept making him overflow so he couldn't stay on the server. Therefore I had to remove myself from any clan adminstration and let someone else stand it.

NA chose Q2DM5, kind of a foolish map selection, it has quad and when you ping 200 on the server you chose the map on... you want little powerups as possible. Lithuania had total quad control. With that they were able to easily rack up the frags to give them a +151 frag lead. DM played an exceptional game scoring a 53-4.


Lithuania chose the map Q2DM1, NA took it to them in that map scoring a +144 frag difference without any powerups. they fell 7 frags short of having first selection of map or server. but played a stong home game none the less.


Game 3 was on a server again in Europe and featured the map Q2DM6.
It was a little messy in the beggining and na took advantage of it by gaining some good and important frags with quad running.
After some time lithuania started to organize themselves and protecting areas like the Red Armor and Rail, and getting some good quads also. From here it was almost equilibrated but LTU had some more quads.
apunts's ggs: GG both
10's GGs: GG's to Lituania, they deserved this win.
