Season 17 powered by Tt eSports Premiership – Grand Final: Made In Germany vs The Last Resort

Here we are at last with the moment we’ve all been waiting for; the mighty Made In Germany <3 Admirable <3 Thun against the tyrannical The Last Resort. Looking back at a very eventful season with these two teams shows some interesting results.  Made In Germany <3 Admirable <3 Thun only loss during Season 17 was ironically  The Last Resort with a close 3-4 score on Process and a devastating 0-3 loss on Viaduct. Moving over to The Last Resort, their only loss was to Dotter who have had a very uneasy season themselves.

Season 17 Premiership – Playoffs: The Last Resort vs Awsomniac

The penultimate game of the ETF2L Season 17 powered by Tt eSports Premiership is upon us; two teams enter, one team leaves – welcome to the thunderdome with The Last Resort facing Awsomniac. The winner will earn the right to contest the number one spot next week against Made In Germany <3 Admirable <3 Thun, guaranteeing themselves at least €300 and 6x Tt eSports Theron Gaming Mice. When these two teams last faced off it was a convincing victory for a rejuvenated The Last Resort, adding another prized scalp to their collection that includes league leaders. What Awsomniac lack in subtly they make up for in raw aggression; the embodiment of the “skill it” mentality – pick a fight and do more damage that your opponent. The Last Resort love to play the position and uber game, with their most recent pocket acquisition, KnOxXx, expertly carving teams open with many a well-timed Mirelin pop, but they are equally devastating in open play if you give HYS an opportunity to unload those stickies.
