Cph Games group stage finished

29-3-2013 23:14

The Copenhagen Games group stage has finally come to an end, and we are now about to enter the double elimination stage.

After the first two round of matches had been played without any major delays, the third group round took almost five hours as network problems made all matches that were still going on shut down.

The biggest surprise in the group stage came in the form of Natus Vincere finishing outside the top two following a three-way tie with Epsilon and fnatic.

With the group stage now behind us, this is how the 32 participants will be distributed in the playoffs:

Teams through to BO3 Upper Bracket:
VeryGames	Lemondogs
fnatic	Epsilon
Anexis eSports	Curse
Quantic	Temp.no
Copenhagen Wolves	Western Wolves
mousesports	ESC Gaming
Ninjas in Pyjamas	Curse
Virtus.pro	Publiclir.se
Teams through to BO1 Lower Bracket:
3DMAX	iRage
Na´Vi	BX3
Reason Gaming	LowLandLions
fm-eSports TOXiC	ALTERNATE
plan-B	ServerForge
KILLERFISH	n!faculty
EYES ON U	myRevenge
Xapso	Nostalgie

The draw for the playoffs will be made very soon. Stay tuned to HLTV.org for all the information about Copenhagen Games.

So it's against NaVi once again. :)

What exactly do the rules say? It does seem odd that they counted the maps against BX3.

nip x curse again ? haha

no.. that was the 2 teams that pass in their group

2013-03-29 23:17

there's no "vs" there, just a list of teams

this is made on group order.

2013-03-29 23:19

NaVi :/

2013-03-29 23:16

so how many rounds will be played today?

just the 1st

wtf :/ navi should be first according to the 3way tie rules ?

Fucked over by Map Difference. The default map vs BX3 really busted their balls! Only themselves to blame though.

How did they decide to interpret the rules? As far as i can count navi should have placed number 1.

points differential in the matches between the teams concerned MAP POINTS!

aha.

2013-03-29 23:22

yea, but there wasn't mentioned "MAP ponits" but simply "points". And as all 3 teams got same amount of map points then admins should count round difference points.

2013-03-29 23:24

They did not get same amount of map points. Navi have one less than the others, due to a 2-1 victory over BX3 Let it go..

2013-03-29 23:31

but You have written it yourself: "points differential in the matches between the teams concerned" so according to this match vs BX3 should not be considered. I am not defending NaVi or something but for me rules wasn't clear enough. But You are right. Let's forget about it and enjoy playoffs :)

2013-03-29 23:36

I agree. Rules could be more clear..

2013-03-29 23:39

What me miss i think is.. That "teams concerned" is relative to teams qualifying from the group, and since ALL teams are actually qualifying then they are all taking into account.

2013-03-30 00:20

sry but then u cant count. Even if is is interpreted however u want ur doing wrong math cos even in that scenario navi shouldnt be 1st.

Obviously not. Sorry =)

2013-03-29 23:23

fnatic da best

navi :'(

Navi will take this shit!

so is na'vi now going home like their manager(?) threatened?

what a shame

gl na'vi, got a super hard task ahead of them now. awesome tournament so far (apart from the DEFAULT LOSS!!)

2013-03-29 23:18

NaVi lower bracket u must be joking , edit the topic admin

Editing a topic won't change the decision CPH Games made, if anything it'll mean we'll be giving false information.

2013-03-29 23:21

Naviiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

If you get there late you have to face the consequences really. I don't believe the that their manager got there early and was told it was at 10.

First round in lower is BO3 :)

When was this decided?

Don't know, but admins told me ealier.

ESC vs Visrtus.pro , they decided! info from neo

Western Wolves should be on the left side instead of Cph Wolves

Info From Pasha! ESC VS VP!

2013-03-29 23:26

lol curse vs quantic. GG

2013-03-29 23:27

what the fuck copenhagen. this is just stupid. why would they do that. after all the hype about this tournament- it seems there is some very questionable decision making going on. nonetheless, the teams are what I am here to watch, not just troll shitty organizers trying their best. go quantic
