k1ck beat zNation to win xFRAGCup

28-5-2012 00:22

The 4,000€ xfunction Fraglider Cup by CJM has concluded with k1ck beating zNation 2-0.

Three days in Porto has passed, with the Portuguese team of k1ck winning the first place prize of 3,000€. Since our last report, the remaining round of 16 matches concluded with expected results.

In the quarter-finals-finals, we witnessed tight matches, the most interesting was without a doubt between Tommi "Potti" Ingemarsson's IMBA and the home court favorites from k1ck. The match went to three maps and on third map de_inferno the teams needed overtime to settle the match.

The home crowd favorites pulled the longest straw, winning 2-1 overall. Also x6tence and semXorah had a close encounter, with the Spaniards eliminating the Brazilian team 2-1. NorthernGrade and zNation also advance from the quarters, following victories against madjick and Phantoms respectively.

The semi-finals ended 2-0, zNation beating x6tence and k1ck beating NorthernGrade. While the quarter-finals were very close and exciting, the tendency from the semi-finals continued in the final, as it was very one sided.

On first map de_train, k1ck got a superb start from the Terrorists side, scoring 13 rounds against two for the Russians. As sides changed, the Portuguese teams had no trouble securing three rounds, winning 16-5 for a 1-0 lead.

Not much changed on second map de_dust2. Starting on the CT side, k1ck once again had a massive lead at half-time, leading 12-3. Different from first map was that the Russians this time managed to get seven rounds before k1ck claimed the 16th to win 16-7 and 2-0 overall.

IMBA were the only team that recorded POV's, without anyone even telling them anything.

GZ K1CK

2012-05-28 00:59

Do You Look To k1ck as an International Team at all ? For everyone ! in my view , k1ck > E2G

2012-05-28 01:18

not so difficult imo. E2G are playing with 4 players cuz ozstr1k3r goes 0-15 all games

2012-05-28 06:33

E2G is shit. What FbOrx says is true. kick has international level, they are maybe as good as alternate.

2012-05-28 09:40

2012-05-28 14:10

No way. Alternate is actually really good.

2012-05-28 18:12

Way too unstable. Can beat anyone on a good day but can be beaten by anyone on a regular day :(

2012-05-28 18:20

K1CK is way better than e2g oztr1k3r is a piece of sh..

POV DEMOS?

9 replies

its a little bit hard but we can understand a little bit :)

2012-05-28 12:10

It depends. In some regions of Spain, we simply cannnot understand what they say.

2012-05-28 12:18

yes we can, but spanish guys doesnt understand portuguese so well.

2012-05-28 13:57

It's possible if spanish speak slowly we can understand what they say :D

2012-05-28 15:39

hmm so it would be pretty hard to make a team... just bring FalleN & fnx to Portugal then!

2012-05-28 16:06

fnx, FalleN, fox, xhiroz, MusambaN1 OMG!!

2012-05-28 22:40

i want to see fox rmn coachi xhiroz GuMmY pls

2012-05-28 15:20

GG K1CK you deserved

hoped to see a classic x6 - k1ck match but gg

2012-05-28 11:58

Overall, I think it was a good tournament, skill-wise. The foreign teams enjoyed their stay from what I've heard. GG! :D

2012-05-28 12:19

If there was a junction between the best portuguese and spanish players, i really think they could be pretty sucessful internacionaly.

2012-05-28 14:17

MusambaN1 (igl) fox xhiroz axoN rmn imo

mut > rmn

2012-05-29 00:33

the only suitable replacement would be xhiroz for axoN lol,and that would be stupid because he isnt that superior,atm k1ck has the best iberian skill by far(musamban1 and xhiroz cant even reach their feet)

Good tournaments, i really enjoy the tournament and our teams!

2012-05-28 14:48

GJ K1CK : ]

2012-05-28 15:01

2012-05-30 21:08

foxj foxj foxj

2012-05-31 17:58

at the moment k1ck are all the way the best iberian team, and Fox, RMN, Coachi, Mutt, Axon are the best iberian players and i think they could reach the top10/5 of Europe and who knows more than this, dont forget the MSI partnership that is very important...

2012-05-31 19:32

don't forget SHOUW, with motivation he is a BEAST like fox

2012-05-31 19:40

not even close, Fox are the best portuguese player of all times and no one is like him, and i thought that will never appear someone like him in the portuguese scene, SHOUW is an great player of course one of the best portuguese players but nothing in comparation with Fox, Fox is certainly one of the best players in the world for me and for many more people.

2012-05-31 19:57

Dude, stop saying shit plz

2012-05-31 20:29

shit? argument and i answear you ... lol say stop saying shit thats a kind of thing to say when the donkeys talk.

2012-05-31 20:55

you're a kid, u dont know nothing about cs. fox is not a god dude

2012-05-31 21:23

and im no saying is a god, but say that Shouw is at least near of fox is stupid, and i dont know nothing about cs? who are you? lol stop that blasphemy.

2012-05-31 21:26

you dont know shouw fo sho

2012-05-31 21:29

i know him and i know is an great player but at this moment any of the K1ck players are better than Shouw, is the best team ever in Portuguese Counter-Strike and against facts no arguments, Fox is the best portuguese player ever and is an world class player, also a blind man could say what you are saying budy.
