DreamHack Open Valencia 2018 Europe Closed Qualifier

Fragsters defeat Tempo Storm to qualify for DreamHack Valencia

6-5-2018 22:41

Fragsters have sealed passage to DreamHack Open Valencia with a 2-0 victory over Tempo Storm (16-5 on Dust2, 16-9 on Train).

Tempo Storm, who came from the open qualifier, had assured themselves of a place in the final match after defeating Imperial and ENCE, both by tight 2-1 scorelines, with Ricardo "⁠fox⁠" Pacheco leading the way for the newly-formed team with 67 and 80 kills, respectively.

As for Fragsters, one of the four invitees of the closed qualifier, they made it into the grand final following 2-0 victories over Nexus and Valiance, with the latter being a hard-fought series that saw Jacob "⁠dragonfly⁠" Lund top the scoreboard with a 1.41 rating and +18 KDD.

stavn was the highest-rated player in the grand final with 1.67

But it was dragonfly's 16-year-old brother, Martin "⁠stavn⁠" Lund, who had a breathtaking performance on the first map of the final, Dust2, with a 2.13 rating to help his team crush Tempo Storm, 16-5, and take the lead in the series.

Starting out as CTs on Fragsters' map pick, Train, Tempo Storm saw their opponents string five rounds together to take control of proceedings. Kevin "⁠HS⁠" Tarn's team still responded with a six-round winning streak, but the Danes were far too hot to handle and lost only three more rounds to wrap things up, 16-9, and book their place in Valencia.

2018-05-06 22:52

Xizt would be great and soker is just a trial i think. I dont really like soker but give him a chance And shox is comming back but i dont see him going to ts but theres always hope :)

2018-05-06 23:04

actually shox can lead and frag at the same time, but I think he wants to stick to the french scene.

Ye ik

2018-05-07 00:06

The soker is playing very good... did you saw the games? Great player bro

2018-05-06 23:15

Xizt would most likely not join that garbage team, after his time in Faze.

2018-05-07 01:16

Why would Xizt ever join this team? You guys better start being realistic bout this team. FejtZ or Zero maybe

2018-05-07 10:05

1+ the igl are the ones fragging the most... but i think socker already has a 3 month contract. before the final that was Fox carrying some firends

2018-05-07 02:31

Good play by fragsters, gl on lan

2018-05-06 22:46

BOT SOKER

sadly

Good job boys <3

A team with 2 weeks of hard work pass through the open qualifier and goes to final on the closed qualifier. Seriosly it has potencial to become a tier 2/3 team.

Was a nice try boys, 1 week of train and this results is not bad at all. NT, GG'S

:( Suxks

2018-05-06 22:54

why danis cs has so many good teams - astralul,north,heroic,optic roster,fragsters ; /

2018-05-06 23:01

Danish IGLs have routinely picked up and given a chance to new fresh talent (kyearbye, magisk etc etc). So they get a spot in top teams, other players then get a spot in tier 2/3 teams and the whole scene improves. Sweden on the other hand had NiP and fnatic at the top both pretty much refusing to ever develop new talent or change lineups (until Rez/Draken anyway). Then the Swedish scene just got really stale instead.

2018-05-07 08:24

2018-05-07 10:00

No joke, guys like HUNDEN helping new talents develop are a big part. I know he's on Alternate Attax nowadays but for a long time he was a big part of the scene growing.

2018-05-07 14:41

Nice try Tempo Storm

1 week practic and reach the close qualifier's finals all the way to the opens.. Also coming from NA.. xD NT :P

they should be winning against t3 teams like fragsters but they cant becaus tempo storm is tier 4 at best and will remain that way the only lan they will go to is the one they get invited to some trash mercedes benz dogshit show

2018-05-07 00:59

Won vs Imperial ---> tier 2 Won vs Ence ---> tier 3 "Tier 4". In Europe tier4 teams are semipro teams so keep on hating, no one cares. ;)

2018-05-07 09:22

2018-05-07 10:59

and no one cares about tempo storm outside of portugal because only the portugese care about their nub idol bot fox.

2018-05-07 21:39

dude... thats not a valid argument. just give up on the hate and move on!

2018-05-07 22:43

LOL won against IMPERIAL and ENCE to qualify for the final! And they have 1 week of training.

2018-05-07 00:24

they will still suck in the months to come.. 5 washed up players...o wow dude tier 4 teams... goaway dumb fox fanboys hes trash and so is this pathetic team... they dont even deserve to get paid to play they are garbage and have been for a long time now

2018-05-07 00:58

get lost fat murican, u dont have any valuable point here.

2018-05-07 14:21

u have no valuable point ur defending fox's tiny tier 4 dick... ur the fat one probably

Agreed but HS is not washed up tho

2018-05-07 23:04

NT,you did well considering you play together like 1 week.

2018-05-07 00:38

Sad for TS, tournament in homeland

2018-05-07 01:07

They will most likely qualify from the iberian qualifier (1-3 june)

2018-05-07 01:22

2018-05-07 10:06

Could heroic steal any of these players? Would it be worth?

2018-05-07 02:03

Fragsters have been showing a lot of potential which just makes the Danish scene scarier.

2018-05-07 02:06

Definitely. Just robbing Dragonfly and stavn and building a new team around them would be a good start. They might not be as good in a new team though as Fragsters seem to have genuine chemistry and natural team play (more like luminosity when they first started upsetting people)
