beach — Most teams are rounding up their seasons, but we still have some crucial games left in Division 1.
Sheepy, Furbo, zoob, shifteey, ritalin, Hildreth
Tonight VanillaTV are covering cast-whisperer, Sucker-loving Hildreth’s team Furbo Pandas facing off against the Finnish powerhouse of Lutuset.
Rosters:
Furbo Pandas
Medic – Ritalin
Demoman – Hildreth
Soldiers – zooob and Shifty
Lutuset
Medic – Valquis
Demoman – Suqp3r
Scouts – Santtu and Honky
Soldiers – Rake and Salmon
As you can see, Lutuset will be relying on 2 mercs tonight in the core roles of Medic and Demoman, so it could be an interesting game. Without that synergy between the central unit and the rest of the team, how will Lutuset fare against the long-established combo of Ritalin and Hildreth?
Furbo Pandas are currently 4th in Division 1 with 15 points, and Lutuset are just 1 point behind in 5th place on 14. But with two other games happening tonight in Division 1, positions could change drastically. The other two matches on tonight are Elemental Violence versus WebOne and LMS against SOLAR. Whatever happens, SOLAR have won the division. They’re currently in first place on 27 points, with the 2nd place WebOne on 19 points.
However, things get complicated after that. If LMS beat SOLAR, then they will be on 25 points and be in 2nd place. They then need Elemental Violence to ‘make upsets’ (© CUBE) and steal some points off WebOne in order to secure 2nd place fully. If WebOne beat Elemental Violence 6-0, then 2nd place will be theirs based on the number of maps won.
Confused? There’s more…
If Elemental Violence and SOLAR both win 6-0, denying WebOne and LMS any points at all, then the fight for 2nd place is between Furbo Pandas and Lutuset. If Furbo Pandas win, they will be on 21 points and in 2nd, and if Lutuset take the victory, they’ll move up to 2nd with 20 points.
After thoroughly confusing myself and half the people reading this article, let’s get down to business…
Check out Warden’s stream for LMS vs. SOLAR…I’m expecting 24/7 kritz from the Russians, so if you’re looking for gdk to smash some faces, head on over!
Alternatively, if you want to see the biggest plays in Div 1, go to CUBE’s streamto watch EV vs. WebOne.
Finally, VanillaTV will be casting Furbo Pandas vs. Lutuset live from the slightly earlier time of 21:00 cet (don’t be late!!) with Byte and ?? on the mics and AnimaL on the stream.
