Virtus.pro to miss EM4

10-9-2009 18:09

The Russian qualifier for the Extreme Masters is over and Virtus.pro will miss out on the international competition.

Virtus.pro were a strong contender to secure one of the four spots Russia are entitled to, but Alexey "LeX" Kolesnikov's side could not do better than a 5-6th placing.

The Russian giants were sent to the Lower Bracket early in the tournament courtesy of Team 44, and despite seeing off ForTeam, they could not defeat PARASHUT, who would finish second in the qualifier.

Both EYESports and Parashut have apparently qualified for a playoff event, to take place in two days' time, with two other teams that have yet to be named.
