Season 15 will come to a conclusion on Thursday night with a rematch of last season’s Grand Final, Epsilon eSports against broder. After the spectacle the two teams produced last time around, there is not much doubt this one should be any different. The winner will walk away with 500 € and 6 Club 3D Radeon HD 7850 royalKing graphics cards.

Highlander Nations Cup #2 – Group A: Austria vs USA

In the Highlander Nations Cup tonight Austria takes on United States of America. While Austria does have some decent players in Tommi and Kuferl for example, they are majorly outshadowed by the Americans with the likes of Ruwin and stabby stabby. Will the ping advantage be enough to enable Austria to challenge tonight or will United States of America have this comfortably in the bag?

Highlander Nations Cup #2 – Group H: Germany vs Ireland

In the Highlander Nations Cup last year’s champions, Germany, take on Ireland. Germany looks as strong as ever having no trouble to pick up all points that were for grabs so far. On the other Ireland lost pretty heavily to Denmark and have not picked up a single point yet. Can they bring it together for tonight or will Germany just roll through?

An important change has been made to a rule regarding ‘alt accounts’. The reasoning behind this change was that the previous rule was very lax and made it hard to monitor potential cheaters. Previously a high level player could make a new account, not play on the previous account, and play in Division 6 anonymously. This led to many false AC Requests that meant we had less time to catch potential cheaters! The new rule prevents this.

The new rule states:

2.6 No account sharing and multi accounts

Every player is limited to only one ETF2L account at any time. A person creating multiple accounts or multiple players using one account is not allowed. Multiple players from the same household (family, close friends, roommates, …) that may be sharing the same IP address must notify admins and use seperate ETF2L and Steam accounts.
Players caught creating multiple ETF2L accounts or allowing use of their Steam account to a third party in official matches may face punishment ranging from deactivation of the account to reversal of match results and a major warning for fraud or a league ban. Each case will be reviewed individually and penalties will be assigned based on severity of the offense and its impact on the competition. If you wish to change the attached Steam ID of your ETF2L account, contact admins and they will change it for you.

Every player has until Monday 19th August to report any alt accounts and any ETF2L account that will regularly log in with the same IP (eg. brother’s ETF2L account). Contact an admin here.
