We are nearing the end of season 21 and we arrive at the last animal vs animal bout of the season, unless some teams decide to change their names. Danger Dogs take on foxy prtyboiz. Danger Dogs are riding into this fixture after having slain the old Se7en roster so it’s safe to say they are conceding their underdog position to prtyboiz who recently emerged victorious against LEGO. They surely want to continue their winning streak and if they do they would ruin Danger Dogs‘s hopes of rolling into third place and making playoffs. With the three S’s of spudd and scout duo sheepy dog's hand and scrab looking strong prtyboiz need to give it their all to take the bone away from this dog. Tune in as the strongest animal is crowned on sunshine and controversial granary_pro_b9. Casted by Twiggy, TurboTabs and ondkaja operating the camera.

Sunday, 20:00 CEST: SUPER MEGA ICE SKATERS FROM HELL KILLERS vs. WASP

Having qualified for a spot in the Highlander Season 9 Premiership division by convincingly winning high,  SUPER MEGA ICE SKATERS FROM HELL KILLERS is looking to prove themselves worthy of the privilege to join the top teams next season. This roster with fairly unknown but talented players (and  foungi) did not even drop a single map in the playoffs.
Of course  WASP themselves just finished their first prem season after winning division 1 back in Season 7. Snapping a map against the defending and new champions Tourettes Chessclub was a huge upset as well as beating Stacked and earned them a respectable 5th place in the end behind the expected top 4.

Who will prevail in this battle of rookies vs sophomores? Do not miss this early season 9 sneak preview and a chance of winning an unusual hat while donating to DeutschLAN! Join casting legend Admirable, premiership veteran b33p and the Steven Spielberg of TF2 broadcasts Jon on camera over at Blackout TV.

Do not forget to bet on this match on Saloon.tf as a cut goes to the DeutschLAN fundraiser as well!

DEUTSCHLAN? WHAT IS THIS?

For those of you new to and interested in this event, check out our official announcement post, the previous fundraiser announcement and, most importantly, the official DeutschLAN forum thread here on ETF2L.org. Spread the word and let the world know!

Signups are closing really soon, but if you still want to join, contact a DeutschLAN staffmember! Any Highlander-, LAN- or Funteam of any skill-level is welcome!

Dust off your tuxedos, roll out the red carpet – it’s time for the Highlander Season 8 Awards Show!. It’s been a roller coaster ride of a season, with closely contested playoffs that left Tourettes Chessclub sitting atop a mountain of panda skulls to retain their title. We saw plenty of new talent move up to the top division and most importantly – zero Premiership teams folding! A pat on the back to everyone who played, casted, and helped out in Season 8.

CeeJaey holds the honour of hosting this most prestigious ceremony once more, and joining him on BlackOut TV  is a whole host of Premiership talent (and Bulow). Khazul, Hildreth, HartzFartz and asadawarf will be on hand to give their verdict on the Season and most importantly on why their team-mates should win every award. Last but not least, the legendary Jon will be reclining in the camera & production seat, greasing the gears from behind the scenes as he has all season long. Tune in at 22CET for banter, trash talk and a healthy slice of post-season gossip.

Season 21 Premiership Week 5: 4-25 vs. The Last Resort

This evening we will be treated to a lot of TF2 and the big game of the night is 4-25 vs. The Last Resort. Many people had The Last Resort pegged as a third place team but they’ve proven themselves to be more than that. Now they face the most clear-cut fourth place contender. 4-25 has showed what they’re capable of by making nerdRage.tf2 sweat for their win in two high scoring maps. The Russians have a very strong flank with atomic- and Forsak3n doing extremely well so far but will MGE super scout NiCO god's hand be the one to bring them down, or perhaps ShaDowBurn has the insight into the Russian mindset to take them down. Join Admirable and at least one former broder player in either Zebbosai or Mirelin with DavidTheWin on the camera.

Season 21 Premiership Week 5: Danger Dogs by TF2Pickup.net vs. Reason Gaming

Part two of this scheduling extravaganza sees the Danger Dogs take on Se7en. Danger Dogs played their first official with new pocket qnx last week and were made to give up one point to Wonderland on process, could the map be a weak point for the team or was it just a case of nerves acting up? They were much more comfortable on viaduct but there are no koth maps for Danger Dogs DM to shine. Se7en however is a much larger beast and they also have the deathmatching skills to go head to head against any Doggie player. Join Sideshow, molesto and ondkaja to see who topples over.

Season 21 Premiership Week 5: Fenneks eSports vs. LEGO

In the bottom of the stream list we find the bottom of Prem duking it out. prtyboiz has been put through the top Prem gauntlet facing all the top teams so far but now the time has come for a more evenly matched fixture. LEGO are currently sitting just above them with their 3 points. prtyboiz are surely ecstatic at this opportunity to take their first points of the season. But last season LEGO managed to hold their own against Awsomniac on sunshine so one would give them the home field advantage. But if prtyboiz get an early lead they can easily sit out the time while the Danes try to remember what they’ve bound +forward to. Join Ryushi, WARHURYEAH and Suyooo to find out how this evening ends.

It’s a true David vs. Goliath when Wonderland is pitted against Yankee slaying nerdRage.tf2 across process and sunshine. But there is hope, last season perennially last placed LEGO managed to take the Frenchies in Awsomniac to a golden cap on sunshine. Can this feat be replicated by Wonderland, does Bulle feel uncomfortable in the sunshine café environment and will Graba gather the same roster two officials in a row this time? Tune in with CommanderX, Ryushi and Jon to find out the answer to all of these questions and watch the game of course at 21:15 CEST and don’t forget to watch to Fully Charged Europe episode 25 at 23.00 CEST. Featuring representatives from all of the top three teams and information about upcoming DeutschLan 2015.
