Highlander Nations Cup #2 & Season 15 Tiebreakers: Sunday’s Matches

Highlander Nations Cup #2 – Group E: Scotland vs. Sweden

Sweden will be the favourites coming into this one, boasting a mix of 6v6 stars and highlander experience. I’m sure people will be watching to see how the change from 6v6 to highlander works out for ryb and 2nuts, as it could be key for Sweden’s tournament hopes. Who knows who Scotland will use, I don’t think they even know at this point!

Highlander Nations Cup #2 – Group C: Romania vs Russia

Highlander Nations Cup #2 – Group F: Belarus vs Bulgaria

The two underdogs from Group F play their opening games tonight. This could well decide who will end up finishing bottom of the group, so you can be sure both teams will be up for it! Bulgaria have more familiar names, with some fairly high level 6v6 players to boast. Only time will tell if they can convert their success from one form of the game into the other.

Revoluzion la metagame vs SORRY QNX

Before the playoffs can kick off for real we need to decide the fourth team to enter them. Revoluzion la metagame and SOLAR both have the same hopes, but only one can fulfill them.

Revoluzion la metagame could consider themselves unlucky because the straight playoff spot would have been theirs if they had not received a one point deduction due to three minor warnings. Other than that they improved drastically over the season and are now looking a very strong side below the top 3. Can they clinch it and go on to a potential upset against Team Infused?

Freshly promoted SOLAR was surprisingly strong during the season but fell just short of getting in to the playoffs, only managing two points against Last Man Standing in their last game. To add to their troubles they just lost their medic and will be using skeej as a merc. Can they pull it together for one more time and make up for their mistake against LMS?
