EM3 Global Finals groups drawn

5-3-2009 19:56

The groups for the Extreme Masters 3 Global Finals have just been drawn. With the quality of teams in the tournament, both groups look very strong.

The first team of each group will go directly on to the playoffs, the 2nd and 3rd placing teams will then play the 3rd and 2nd playing teams in the other group, just as the European finals.

Group A
mTw
MYM
XLBet.ATS
SK-Gaming
mibr
Gravitas
Group B
WeMade Fox
Alternate
fnatic
Crack Clan
x3o
Team EG

HLTV.org is of course still on site for the Global Finals so keep an eye on our coverage section and you will not miss a thing!

2009-03-05 20:07

Group A...group of titans!

2009-03-05 20:17

B is group of death... Well both kinda but B is worse.

2009-03-05 20:21

mym and sk again have harder group =] gl mym/sk/fnatic/alternate

2009-03-05 20:21

Group A 1)mTw = best team in tournament right now 2)MYM = gives mtw trouble sometimes, plus they did well at the euro finals 3)SK-Gaming = i think they aren't playing their best right now, watch zet interview 4)Gravitas = american team might sneak in but i doubt it, if they can either beat MYM or SK heads up, the will probably get in 5)XLBet.ATS = darkhorse of the group but did terrible @ euro finals 6)mibr = way tooo many problems and different rosters/ lack of motivation Group B 1)EG = watch the return of coL and the awping of frod 2)WEmade fox = new roster with 2 new players, not the same old estro but once again koreans are crazy 3)alternate = doesnt matter that they placed #2, this is a group of people they haven't played that much 4)fnatic = get right + gux aren't going to keep their heads above water when it comes down to pressure 5)crack clan = sry finland, u guys are too random to call most of the time 6)x3o = if EG doesn't get first in this group, because x3o beats them in the first match of the group and then goes on a hot streak, they might actually win the group but im hoping for EG overall, it is anyones game

How good is EG compared to mTw? On a scale 1-10? Havn't seen any match with them. Please make a non-patriot decision, want to know when I shall bet on their matches ;)

EG are strong for an american side, a worthy adversary for x3o or gravitas. but gravitas and x3o have both beaten and lost to EG recently in various competitions. Its just that no one can know really how they will perform against europe. My guess is that they could win a few games, but will lose the majority. not a match for mTw, but then who is right now

Thanks mate.

2009-03-05 21:43

i'd say they are the american mym. Pretty good comparison i think.

Hm ok! Thanks!

2009-03-06 09:56

nope, it actually is mtw better than all kind of situation.

2009-03-05 21:23

wowitsgreg "MYM gives mTw trouble sometimes?" mTw owns MYM. Just look at the train match. 15-0 at the break. I dont think that MYM gives them trouble sry to say. mTw are a level higher than MYM. It's gonna be a match against SK and MYM who that will become number 2 in the group.

mtw has said countless times that they fear mym

2009-03-05 22:57

well mym was unlucky vs mtw... they could have got more rounds.

If you could speak danish you would understand what they say :P They said that they havent played against them so much and they had looked forward to play against them in the EM III EUROPEAN FINALS but they faced Alternate. The reason why they want to face MYM is that they won last time in 2008 against MYM in the final, but they want to beat them one more time to prove that they are better than MYM. **THEY DONT FEAR THEM** they just want to face them in a final before 2009 is over :P

2009-03-06 07:31

mirror (ATS) > Gravitas.... Team EG < anyone else in Group B Your don't seem to know much of the scene properly.

2009-03-05 22:14

wich problems do mibr have ?, in my eyes they are the only one who can beat mTw ?..

2009-03-06 04:31

4 replies

mTw also said that they dont think that they would get any trouble against mibr because of their lineup change. And I would also say that their lineup is weakended fnx was a nice player.

2009-03-06 07:33

The only team that mTw fear is fnatic. They said that fnatic are hard to beat. But if I should guess who they fear the most in group A I would properbly say SK. SK needs to prove what they can do.

The leader of each group advancing to the semifinals already. The 2 and 3 of each group will face in recap, then the two winners will face the semifinals for the leaders. Ie, after the group stage, only six teams are in the fight!

2009-03-05 20:29

Is it true that WeMade FOX is trainning 12 hours every day?

2009-03-05 20:31

3 replies

12 :? could be done, but it is sick. If you take E-sports as normal sport you can do 2 trainings a day for some 3-4 hours 2x a day but have to reduce hours before tourney for the best performance. maybe they are like robots :D and dont feel morally and physically tired:/

nice aTTaX got the easy one =) more than doable

2009-03-05 21:03

XLBET.ATS -> XLBET.Mirror -> XLBET.ATS decide what's it gonna be

2009-03-05 21:08

I keep my fingers crossed for aTTaX ofc. But the main thing is mTw get defeated. I mean I like them but for the thrill it would be fine if some others like mYm or mibr take this tournament and the prize money

2009-03-05 21:16

1 reply

im with you, i love mTw and they play amazing, but the tournament would just have that spark of uncertainty if they got rocked in the group stages or perhaps didnt even qualify from them like mouseports

2009-03-05 21:35

group A is the hardest one so far.. mtw n +1,(sk,mym,mibr)

2009-03-05 21:30

go x3o

2009-03-05 21:34

Go EG and fnatic !

2009-03-05 21:38

A mTw MYM Gravitas XLBets still look really shakey after losing arcadion, and SK did not look like their usual selves in the euro competition. As for mibr i dnt know wat to make of them after all the recent drama. If SK get their heads together they will steal the 3rd spot from Gravitas, otherwise i see the americans to surprise. B Alternate Fnatic Anyone Alternate and fnatic to run away with the group. Wemadefox have only recently lost 2 key players and i fear this will have been bad for there performance. CC are always hard to predict, either dominating or getting dominated. The americans could also surprise for the 3rd spot. 3rd place too hard to call

2009-03-05 21:42

IMO: A: 1.mTw 2.mYm 3.SK-Gaming B: 1.Alternate 2.Fnatic 3.WeMade FOX Then mYm will beat FOX & Fnatic will overplay SK. Presumably I'm mistaken cause it's unpredactible ;)
