EG face coL for the American Ch'ship

Evil Geniuses are one step closer to defending their American Championship title, with a very quick match against Desire 2 Excel, winning 2-0, they move on to the Grand Final against compLexity.

While the first semi-final of the day was very exciting and intense, the second semi-final was over in just a little more than one hour of play, as Evil Geniuses won 2-0 against Desire 2 Excel.

Desire 2 Excel, with the EG WCG stand-in Travis "tuBBy" Bechtol, only managed to take four rounds off the defending American Champions and there was never any doubt that EG had a lot more to give, notable performance during the two maps came from captain Tomi "lurppis" Kovanen and AWPer Danny "fRoD" Montaner.

Well it's a matter of opinion, but imo fRoD has a certain advantage because of his experience. I've been following him since 2005 and I pretty much know what he's capable of. fRoD > FalleN

if frod plays tomorrow like he did today, then frod>fallen, if he plays like at wcg the fallen>frod, but for majority of the time and if the rest of eg can keep up then eg>col.br 16-12 for both maps, unless, luppris plays like he did today, then 16-10 or even 16-8 for eg. Just hope dboorn can frag against col like he does against his US buddies
