EQL 6 - Results and predictions !
The 6th season of the European Quake League has now reached the final stages. This week will see most Divisional Titles decided.

http://www.skynet.ie/~geronimo/qw/qwnu/news/eql-six.gif


The past few days some great semi-finals take place throughout most of the divisions.
We saw Slackers, Firing Squad and the Viper Squad coming through in division 1 in some very close games. Division 2 unfortunately has gone inactive. Division 3 saw NoParasan! defeat Hippushnik in an epic 3-2 battle. Division 4 also saw a great semi-final between Clan Metally Troopers and Bear Beer Balalaika. With CMT coming through 3-2 to book a place in the final.

Division 5 saw both semi finals being played. Irish clan Na Fianna wiped the floor in their semi against Vitun Kova Bosse. The other semi saw Respawn Addicts defeat Allans Vittnen. Which will make for a great showdown in Division 5.

For the coming weeks fixtures please click the post title above
The Fixtures for this week are as follows:

Division 1 Semi Finals
the Viper Squad vs Slackers II
Slackers vs FiringSquad
Div 1 Predictions The Viper Squad have a bit more game time under their belt and are playing quite well at the moment. So you would favour them to grab a final place.
Slackers can never be written off and if they have a full panel to select from then you would have to place your money

Division 2 Final
tbc vs tbc

Division 3 Final
No Pasaran! vs Fraggers United
Div 3 Predictions No Pasaran! to clinch the Div 3 title

Division 4 Final
Clan Metally Troopers vs Enemy Quad
Div 4 Predictions This will be an interesting one to call. EQ are an ever improving team but have not had a match for a while and may be rusty. This could be neck and neck and with CMT having a tough semi-final under their belt then you might tip them to snatch it.

Division 5 Final
Na Fianna vs Respawn Addicts
Div 5 Predictions Na Fianna would have to hot favourites to win this match. Read will need to get in a get a good early start, taking the first map and hope that it will cause some doubts in the Irish lads minds. However Na Fianna have a very strong starting lineup and an equally impressive panel to chose from. Na Fianna for the title.

Division Rookies Final
Mob of Oddballs v's Comfortably Numb
Div Rookie Predictions Despite a lack of game time, if Comfortably Numb can field a team then they should be too strong for the Mob of Oddballs.

Once you have your fixture decide this week make sure to add it to the QWDrama Schedule . The fixture will then appear in Gold Rush and bets can be placed on the game.

Have fun and good luck !!

very nice good job
2008-01-22, 12:58
If I remember right Sailorman was one of the guys who said it would be 2-0 for EQ in regular season too

"Division 2 unfortunately has gone inactive." As if div1 hasn't? not to talk about the whole qwscene in general. what joke season this has become, teams stop playing completely..even giving away playoff games (koff ?), also eql site not even up so you can whine at the right place..(not to mention how that league has been organized)...BG

Well I guess at least 3 of the 4 Div 1 semis were played if nothing else.
EQL and QW.NU going down. Well these things happen. Not much you can do. There are plans afoot for a dedicated server for these sites which will result in some stability.
But agreed on the whole QW scene the past few weeks. It appears very inactive.
2008-01-22, 21:54
too much divs imho, there are like 5-6 active teams in QW now
you should split div2 and div3 and remove div5 (ez->div1)
make a rule: if one team give away 2 WO's = ban next season
hope that upcoming NQR and Quake Nations Cup will be more active
2008-01-23, 09:22
Nice rule so we'll lost lots of viable teams. Qw community is not so big to ban teams with such ease.

Also i guess you meant not "split div2 and div3" but "unite these divs"
2008-01-23, 12:10
yea, i mean unite, not split this move should increase activity
2008-01-23, 14:16
"this move should increase activity"

or not. i see a situation where the skill level varies even more inside a div and clans start to cry and try their best to avoid the hardest opponents. and also when seeking prac they'll go back to the "prac div2.5-3.5" which hasnt been seen too much lately
2008-01-27, 10:57
Why is div 2 inactive?
2008-01-27, 21:03
Na Fianna sux :p
2008-01-27, 23:09
Division Rookies Final: Mob of Oddballs v's Comfortably Numb on Monday (28 I) or Tuesday (29 I). Sorry for delay:<
