ICSC 9 brackets drawn

26-8-2011 18:03

The brackets for Intel Challenge Super Cup 9 have been drawn and the competition is ready to kickoff next week.

The organizers yesterday confirmed the 16 participating sides in the ninth season of ICSC, which will be played entirely online.

Today the brackets were drawn, giving us the following matchups for round one of the upper-bracket:

			Date	Time
Frag eXecutors	vs.	zNation	August 29	20:00
Players	vs.	Maverick	August 30	20:00
ESC Gaming	vs.	Electronic Sahara	August 31	20:00
KerchNET	vs.	KaoS	September 1	20:00
Lions	vs.	Underdog$	September 5	20:00
tao	vs.	notable	September 6	20:00
Virtus.pro	vs.	Hardware4u	September 7	20:00
DTS	vs.	Fear Factory	September 8	20:00

The tournament will feature a maximum of one match per day, leading up to the finals, which will feature three in one day.

To those wondering why DTS take part in this season, the organizers and DTS have come to an agreement, where DTS have approved specific conditions from the organizers, which allowed them to participate.

You will be able to enjoy all of the action from ICSC 9 right here on HLTV.org and stay tuned for us to open the gates for our Dreamteam game.

go dts!

lol. last season double groupstage with 2x matches vs every team. and now directly brackets? i guess it was necessary with some drastic changes to the format after last seasons failure. lets hope it helps. but genereally its kinda boring with direct brackets in an online tourney imo.

you are welcome. redman retired from professional gaming and playing poker now. but sometimes he plays mixes 4fun, like he did lately at ASUS Summer (BURN: OverDrive, redman, MNR, Lmbt, Sypser).

I think redman was the best player of Russia. Why he retired? What was his problem? Education, health, family or work?

2011-08-26 21:45

4 replies

cause he didn't see a future of russian cybersport. it's not like in Sweden, Denmark, Poland. CS can't be your main work in Russia, people don't take it too serious.

Actually he's really known among the German players and he's very talented. Germany have lots of talents, if you remember also players like maKz (TBH) and cash (mousesports/mTw) surprised everyone with their abilities while they were unknown to the international viewers.
