Virtus.pro through to ECS Season 3

27-3-2017 22:26

Virtus.pro are back in the Esports Championship Series (ECS) after defeating Space Soldiers 3-1 in a promotion match.

With fnatic already through to ECS Season 3 are edging past North 3-1, the final spot in the prestigious league was decided in an exciting clash between Virtus.pro, the ninth-placed team from Season 2, and Space Soldiers, the runner-up of the Development League.

The first map of the series, Train, was decided only in overtime after both teams showed strong CT sides during regulation. In overtime, Virtus.pro's experience proved crucial, with the Polish team winning two rounds in each half to secure a 19-17 victory.

Next up was Inferno, which was the most one-sided map of them all, with Space Soldiers convincingly cruising to a 16-8 victory, powered by a great performance from their newest recruit, Buğra "⁠Calyx⁠" Arkın.

Map three, Overpass, saw Space Soldiers recover from a four-round deficit in the second half to tie up the score at 15-15. Ismailcan "⁠XANTARES⁠" Dörtkardeş was hitting all his shots and getting multi kills round after round, but in the end Virtus.pro walked out with another overtime victory, thanks to a great display from Janusz "⁠Snax⁠" Pogorzelski.

Just like two of the previous three maps, Mirage went down to the wire, with Jarosław "⁠pashaBiceps⁠" Jarząbkowski and Paweł "⁠byali⁠" Bieliński dropping over 30 frags apiece to inspire Virtus.pro to a 16-13 win and a hard-fought 3-1 victory in the series.

2017-03-28 01:29

First of all, it's lose not loose. Secondly, it proved to be a reasonable ICB bet. The way SS played definitely proves that it was worth to play on them for 5.55 odds. Learn how to bet. Betting is about making the logical assumption with risk/reward anaylsis.

Dam so u really thought ss was going to win vp has more exp on this kind of games by the way i bet 80 dolars in handicap in ss and got 78 dollars bsck thanks. Ss

In male insects, the structure analogous to a penis is known as aedeagus. The male copulatory organ of various lower invertebrate animals is often called the cirrus.[citation needed] The lesser water boatman's mating call, generated by rubbing the penis against the abdomen, is the loudest sound, relative to body size, in the animal kingdom. In 2010, entomologist Charles Linehard described Neotrogla, a new genus of barkflies. Species of this genus have sex-reversed genitalia. Females have penis-like organs called gynosomes that are inserted into vagina-like openings of males during mating. In 2014, a detailed study of the insects reproductive habits led by Kazunori Yoshizawae confirmed that the organ functions similar to a penis – for example, it swells during sexual intercourse – and is used to extract sperm from the male

2017-03-27 22:39

if you lose to VP online and pasha being the top fragger thats just SS throwing the game

2017-03-27 22:43

SS throwing = one map win, two ot maps and a 16-13 map means that VP has problems

2017-03-27 22:50

lol no. they're probably finishing top 3 at the least at their next lan. maybe you aren't familiar with VP online (obvs u are).

2017-03-28 00:03

lol

2017-03-28 06:05

i even guarantee you said the same things last year...or every time VP is losing to shit teams online.

2017-03-28 16:42

Yeah I said one year ago that their form is horrible because their form was actually horrible.

2017-03-28 16:44

well, ill recognise form is different from a slump. in that case VP are in bad form after every big lan.

2017-03-28 16:47

We all saw how many rounds ss got at wesg against vp... A vp that got butt fucked by kinguin.

2017-03-28 08:30

Without calyx.

2017-03-28 08:54

dignitas ?

no they couldn't. it's not mousesports they have lost to. even VP has had some idiotic rounds and Calyx and Cheattares looked like some hacking kebabs, vp wouldn't have lost it. and VP played quite weak

xantares and calyx looked like cheaters, what about snax and byali? lol on overpass it felt like hack vs hack xantares vs snax, it was embarassing

Snax and byali vs calyx and xantares

2017-03-28 01:02

None of those aforementioned players are cheating, _prometheus_. Again, either play the game, provide proof or state it as your opinion. Don't talk about them as if they are actually cheating when they are not. It's both offensive to those who actually have brains to understand and the players themselves. Good day.

2017-03-29 04:16

You're right, I don't have any proof. It's only my opinion

2017-03-29 04:19

Thank you, _prometheus_. Have a good day, friend.

2017-03-29 04:20

Nobody played bad or good, it was just a good, well played game

2017-03-28 08:42

what is your rank silver or nova? if one player play good he is probably cheater? nice brain :) Did you watch major games if you watch you will say everyone have cheat :D

2017-03-28 09:58

i am less worse than a silver probably cuz i've never touched this game lul. xantares and calyx "haven't played good" they looked like complete hackers (and i am so aware what kind of good aimers they're) but they didn't spray through smokes no they instantly hsed them. i remember on overpass when xantares rush b and instantly hsed taz through the smoke, when he was close to water or the flick shot against taz aswell lul. sorry if a guy like kqly hacked which has actually never be proved by valve that he hacked on lan (maybe i missed it^^) why don't you think about the other possibilities. i never understood how kqly looked like an hacker tbh. he was a good player in that competion but if you compare with nowadays player he would look like an solid player not more not less. and i've been watching csgo since katowice 2014^^ i think that they are not hacking but you never know. they're are good aimers so aimlock would just increase the chances to hit those shots much more without to realise^^

2017-03-28 15:36

cry more cry how much ?

2017-03-28 16:15

you stupid brain doesn't want to understand it or?

2017-03-28 21:22

how much ?

2017-03-29 14:23

It was anyone's game... They both could have won it depending on a few crucial rounds that SS just couldn't close out which gave vp the momentum to win

2017-03-28 14:38

you don't know that VP would play differently after 0-1 on first map and then highly impossible 0-2

2017-03-28 15:31

thats why I said "could have" not "will have"

2017-03-28 16:26

2017-03-28 10:55

Due to North's (Dig at that time) performance in the last season. The thing is that unlike the major, the org holds the spot instad.

VP always at the bottom of the leagues and always gets relegated lol.

2017-03-28 21:31

Well... those unintelligent think VP/SS were cheating and those also unintelligent presume throwing went on. Why can't anyone see this as it actually was, a very close BO5 that was incredible to watch from start to finish. Well played, VP. Fingers crossed SS will get another chance in the future. XANTARES absolutely NEEDS more recognition.
