Premiership quarterfinal dd + 5 abs vs. publiclir

As this surprising season is drawing to a close we present to you the quarter final where the 3rd and 4th seed will duke it out for continued survival. If you somehow missed it the two teams are European Velocity eSports grabbing 3rd seed with a single point margin. The 4th seed is Australia shredded autism who managed to snag the last spot after dispatching Denmark LEGO on badlands last week. These two teams have faced each other in the heat of battle before, back in Week 5. Back then shredded autism came out on top on both maps. However none of those maps are being played tonight, the maps that are being played however are as follows: sunshine, snakewater and product. Will the surprise team of the season be able to run away with this game or will the combined experience of several veterans prove too strong? Tune in at 21.00 CET with Ireland Admirable, UnitedKingdom kaidus & England DavidTheWin with UnitedKingdom CommanderX hosting the analyst desk. If the hype isn’t enough check out Denmark Beater‘s video:

  • Week 3: pl_borneo

Whitelist

Season 10’s whitelist features some minor changes from the previous season:

  • The Pomson 6000 is now banned. This is due to a bug regarding invisible particles.
  • The Phlogistinator is now allowed.
  • With the feedback received from the Season 10 Map Test Cup, we are keeping the Razorback allowed for this season.

You can find the relevant whitelist on whitelist.tf here

Expect more info on schedules to arrive together with the provisional divisions, to be published on the 18th of March.

Season 23 powered by Tt eSPORTS Premiership Week 7: nerdRage vs. Perilous Gaming

Date March 13, 2016

Season 23 banner 2.0

Here we are, the last game of the regular season and what a game. The undisputed top of Premiership will be on display as these two teams with phenomenal track records clash. European Se7en have only let a single measly point escape them so far. European Full Tilt have had a golden cap as well with a map loss to boot, placing them slightly behind their opposition. This could be a preview of a potential grand final. But this fixture is still important as it will determine who goes into this as the number 1 seed. We will begin the evening with a splash of product and top it off with a well aged glass of badlands. Your sommeliers for this soirée will be UnitedKingdom CommanderX, UnitedKingdom Maks & England DavidTheWin. Don’t forget the party starts at 20.00 CET.
