Ora Elektro vs. wer das liest ist doof

This is it, the first match of the final week is upon us. Two teams enter, only one of them will make playoffs ! Ora and WDLID are tied with 5 points, and are only one point away from SVIFT, who are occupying the last playoff spot. A dominant victory from either of the team would make a playoff appearance that much sure as SVIFT would have to defeat Faint to stay in the race, while a tie would help SVIFT, who would only need 3 points to qualify.

Wer das liest ist doof had a rough start, but that was before enough dropping out to put my academic career to shame happened. Despite them failing to obtain a single point, they had a very good showing against Se7en last week so Honey and his homies will be looking to keep the momentum going.

Ora Elektro, after being quite discrete the previous weeks came back on Monday against SVIFT. It looked like their hiatus was put to good use as they managed to win Sunshine very convincingly, but SVIFT operated a speedy recovery and managed to defeat them on Prolands.

So, will the old guard beat the new kids on the block on the staple maps that are Badlands and Process ? Or will they pass the torch to this not-so-new squad ? Tune in to find out !

Ora Elektro vs. SVIFT EU

Tonight, it’s Faint Gaming versus Ora Elektro on Sunshine and Prolands.

Last week, SVIFT were outmatched by wer das liest ist doof. On Snake they went 1-0 down in just under two minutes, which snowballed fast into a 3-0 deficit. They gallantly pulled it back to 3-2 with three minutes left, but couldn’t gain that crucial third round for a Golden Cap. Sunshine was started with idiosyncratic swiftness, taking a quick first round and giving the Germans a taste of their own medicine, but it was nothing that Dr Phil and co couldn’t overcome, losing eventually 2-1.

Meanwhile, it’s been 15,000 years since Ora Elektro played their last official. It was at the start of October versus Se7en, where they showed a more than commendable fight on Gully (though couldn’t come up with the end product on Viaduct).

Will Ora Elektro’s return to our screens be a cause célèbre? Or will Smirre and the boys pull the Ora plug?

Catch all the action on TF TV with your hosts, GrumpyKoi, Eepily and Beater.

Se7en vs. wer das liest ist doof

It’s a key moment in wer das liest ist doof‘s season, as the not-so-Germans are facing off against the colossus that is Se7en.

Se7en, after drawing with rival Ascent.EU last week will be looking to bounce back in their last match of the regular season and need at least four points to finish on top of the table. Maybe even five, but this was written at 4 am so I can’t ask anyone who actually knows stuff. Regardless, Se7en will be looking to put last week match behind them, and mauling a mid-table side is a good way to do that.

So, is it already over for WDLID? I don’t think so. While they might not walk away with six points, managing to grab any point from this fixture would help them greatly in the playoff race. They are in a good run of form as well, beating SVIFT EU last week, a team that drew against the current top spot. It would not be the first time that Se7en is caught by surprise against a “weaker” side, as Ora Elektro managed to take them to a Golden Cap. With the addition of Dr. Phil, and the unpredictable nature of Prolands, an upset is not a far-fetched scenario.

So, will the good form of the doofus carry on or will Se7en crush them? Tune in to teamfortress.tv to find out!
