The two most alliterative teams in Premiership square up in this most vital of games, to keep their playoff dreams alive. ComedyShortsGaming have had an strong season, narrowly losing to upper-bracket team LEGO and getting wins over teams they ought to, but significantly losing two maps to Danger Dogs.

The Dogs, on the other hand, began with a poor start, losing the preseason first round qualifiers to amppis‘s crew before finding it hard to get wins in the first half of the season, a run which included giving 3/6 their only two-map series win of the season. However, WARHURYEAH and the boys managed to pull it back by getting three precious wins in the latter part of the season, boosting them to playoffs, but continuing that run lies in the balance. Whoever loses here is out for good, and so expect to see all their best gimmicks and strats out for display.

Well we’re into the second week already and its been blood and gore everywhere including the departure of one beloved The Bureau and its roster from Premiership. But no point focusing on past activities, time to dive into the next gritty heat between Budget Toucans and Super Dickmann's JUNIORS! in Week 2 of ETF2L’s Highlander Season 11 on cp_gullywash and koth_lakeside. Despite what you may see, Super Dickmann's JUNIORS! currently lead in the table over Budget Toucans (…Bureau…) with a small 4 point advantage but with Budget Toucans wanting to get their footing early in the season we could be looking at a very action packed and gory game coming from both sides of the matchup. Who will win? Tune in on BlackOut TV from 21:00 CET with CeeJaey, Bulow & Jon to find out!

NOTE: cp_snakewater_final1 has been updated to reflect most of the updates featured in u13 version of the map, due to this it is strongly encouraged to use the official version of this map for playoffs, however it is not required.

Welcome everyone to the conclusion of the 25th season of ETF2L 6v6.
We hope you enjoyed the matches, and for the teams that made it through, congratulations. Here is where the poor and Irish get separated from the Gentle Mannes.

All tiers will have playoffs, all playoff matches will be using the Map Elimination system. Note that all dates are estimates and teams are able to negotiate other days by scheduling with their opponents.

If you find yourself on the list of these teams expect an admin to add you and request your availability, if there is no information or insufficient information given we will have to decide your match dates for you. Keep in mind that we will try and accommodate both teams, but the match date may still vary from your provided days, if for example none of the days match with your opponent, but your opponent offered more days than you did. Deadlines listed for the matches are flexible and may be changed in certain situations if admins are contacted about allowing extensions on these.
