Tonight the many gruelling matches, maps and controversies have lead to this very occasion, the ETF2L Season 8 Premier Division Finals!
After battling hard through the play-off stages, 1st place in the league Epsilon Esports face 4th place finishers Blight Gaming in what will prove to be an exciting if not unfamiliar match-up of these top class teams.
Already facing each other in the Wireplay TF2 Finals, with a possibly unexpected win from Blight Gaming, and the ESL’s Major Series Final with a win from Epsilon Esports, these teams know each other well and each have something to prove. Be it for the pride or the prizes there is no doubt that this game will be a nail-biting finale to the latest ETF2L season!
Comandante mvp was kind enough to provide us with his innermost thoughts on the subject;
The ETF2L Final for sure gonna be a very tense and exciting match. So far all matches between us been rather close. The last 2 ETF2L league matches both ended in a draw. In the EMS Epsilon was able to win the Final, while we won the Wireplay Final. It’s all set for a close match.
With the maps being badlands and obscure (gullywash as decider) we are pretty confident to at least go to the decider map. I predict it all goes down to the form on the day anyways. I’m gonna leave nothing to chance though, so I’m spending a decent amount of time reviewing our strats, and if needed adjust them. Might be a bit harder this time, due to Epsilon using Predz instead of Shintaz. People might think that’s a disadvantage for Epsilon, but I am not really agreeing to that. Predz is a very good and experienced Scout, and it gives me a headache to figure out how he will influence the general play and tactics of Epsilon.
But I wouldn’t be surprised if Shintaz actually plays tomorrow.
Clearly Judgement day is upon us, as Extremer proves a coherent quote.
So, the ETF2L finals.. Another nice headset (and cash). kewl shit
Anyway, just before our winter break we won EMS finals vs Blight, sadly right after it we lost to them in the Wireplay finals. So currectly the score is 1-1 and this is the last final to play. Who will win? Almost impossible to predict. You better watch it, this is TF2 history in the making. (except for obscure, it’s probably going to be boring as fuck)
