Well it's taken a while but the CPL AMD UK Qualifiers are finally underway. Dogged by some technical problems at the beginning, things are begninning to take shape with games 3 & 4 happening as I write this.The first game to kickoff was noc vs. CSC7 but both team's efforts were hampered by technical issues. CSC7 won the first half of de_aztec 8-4 and noc were leading the 2nd half 5-1 but eventually the game had to be aborted as it was taking too long. As a result, both teams gained a 'Default Win' and 3 points each.
The 4k vs. LCA game could certainly be described as tense with LCA taking a first half lead on de_prodigy of 8-4 and then went on to take a 3-1 lead in the 2nd half and needed only 1 more round to secure victory. 4k however fought back bravely and took the remaning 9 rounds. Final score - 13-11 to 4k.
For anyone 'not-in-the-know' CPL games are played with rules: Maxrounds 12.
As previously stated, things are beginning to settle down and we're making up for lost time. Be sure to check The Live Coverage Page for up to date info.
