Season 20 powered by Tt eSPORTS – Week 1: CPLAY.Tt vs Übersexuals

Week 1 ends tonight when who is? take on SUAVE. Last season’s champions SUAVE have changed half their roster from last season picking up KnOxXx, Mike and last but not least numlocked to replace both their soldiers and the departing WARHURYEAH. The old Epsilon trio should be more than capable of stepping into the shoes they’re trying to fill and SUAVE are definitely going into this match as the favourites. Challenging them are who is? who won the playoffs giving them a spot in the Premiership this season after a season long hiatus and some roster changes in the form of .kr4tos. Could they have what it takes to challenge for the very top?

Season 20 powered by Tt eSPORTS – Week 1: LEGO vs Ze Knutsson Rollerbladers

It’s time for another season and what better way to start it than a match between the newly promoted LEGO and last season’s runner-ups, Ze Knutsson Rollerbladers. The previously full Danish side of LEGO has gone international picking up sorex and Josh on scout and roamer respectively. Last time they were in the Premiership back in season 17 they lost all their games so with these new additions they’ll be looking to make amends and finish in a more respectable position this time around. However, their opponents tonight will not go down easily. With zappis departing to the promised land of CS:GO, Ze Knutsson Rollerbladers have picked up Starkie on roamer. This swap doesn’t seem to have swayed them much so they look like the favourites to win tonight. Can LEGO pull of an upset or will it be the first step in another bad season in the Premiership for them?

Highlander Season 7 Wrap Up

After a season split up by the holidays, we can finally reflect back on one that was filled with action. From the pre-season upsets during the TFTV Invitational to the very last games in the Premiership Grand Finals. The days that SNSD won every season are long over.

After a promising 3rd place in the TFTV HL Invitational Cup, Voodooh faced tough opponents, but got a break by barely securing a win over hePPa. But apparently they lost their drive as the season went on, and won’t be guaranteed of a premiership slot in Season 8.

hePPa had a rough season too, but winning a map in week 2 placed them in a relegation slot, and were going to battle over their premier spot against ResidentSleeper. However, the latter forfeited the match, giving hePPa a secure spot in next season’s Premiership Division.

The Highlander Season 5 champions Kill Switch were unfortunate to undergo big roster changes, that eventually led to them trailing off from week 4 and onwards.

Yet again Fair Enough barely missed playoffs. This team is held together by the power of friendship and HartzFartz yelling, Qnai telling him to shut up, and Blooddrunk clicking on heads. But four wins and three losses was not enough to move on.

The team that did make the playoffs was Stacked. the team led by the Irish Youtube superstar b33p had a decent season, but ended it by getting a default win from  Kill Switch.
However they forfeited a point by accumulating so many minor warnings that it stacked up to a major warning.
This tied them with PremTech where a tense playoff game sadly left Stacked on a 4th place.

Ending on second place in the regular season, Highpander© had to defend their title no matter what. But holidays happen and roster changes meant that Hildreth couldn’t continue his habit of playing in the grand finals.

Moving on to the team that ended up fulfilling their promise of making top 3, PremTech made it to the grand finals.
The team with an American powerhouse with  Nursey on medic and Kresnik on heavy tried to show how TF2 should be played. They got really close but they had to acknowledge that there was one team that bested them in the end.

On top during the main season, and eventually winning the grand finals was BreakfasT_Jr and a few others in Tourettes Chessclub

We now have our brand new champions in the highest level competitive European highlander has to offer
