Clanbase Eurocup ska just kicka igång och säga vad man vill om CB (Chefen säger bu) så kan vi se fram emot en hel del tuffa matcher som kommer bli roliga att följa. Mina kollegor på både Tek9 och på Cadred.org har varit vänliga nog att göra ordentliga genomgångar på första matchveckan, så istället för att skriva en egen länkar jag till deras!

Först ut är Tek9 som konstaterar att veckans match är fajten mellan Dignitas och Roskilde Ravens:
Unfortunately, these two big names didn't meet in the official competition at the recent Multiplay i33 event, and with Team Dignitas now proving that they are winners once again with an i33 victory, it makes the match a lot more interesting. Team Dignitas were a very under-rated side going into the i33 event last weekend, but managed to pull it off with a strong performance overall. The same could go for the EuroCup, as they enter this as an under-rated side also, but Roskilde Ravens could equally pull off a decent win, making this game, the match of the week.

Även Cadred.org anser att Dignitas mot Ravens är hetast och skriver så här:
In Week 1's 'MATCH OF THE WEEK', we see the great Team Dignitas take on the Danish Roskilde Ravens. After winning i33 somewhat suprisingly as underdogs, it will be interesting to see how they fair under the pressure of being labelled one of the favourites for the cup. Roskilde RAvens impressed at i33 using the difficult TUP method, with a string of good results, and will be hoping to continue that on Monday, against this unpredictable Dignitas team.

När vi nu är inne på Clanbase så måste jag nämna TosspoT, mannen bakom Crossfire.nu, som har publicerat en krönika där han tar upp ämnet Clanbase vs ESL med fokus på fnatic's bojkott av Eurocup. Artikeln är mycket läsvärd.

Här har ni en saxning:
Fnatic's opinion have not gone unnoticed by the rest of the community. TeK-9 have also stated that the Eurocup is simply a better alternative to PCW?s rather than the ultimate competition it once was.
Clanbase have been losing the battle against ESL for prestigious tournaments for a long time, however certain games have always remained loyal against the German tournament organisation. Primarily those games have been Quake engine based, such as Call of Duty & ET however has their loyalty now been tested too far? For Call of Duty, many Eurocup players have questioned whether the ruleset was made for them for the Open Cup and are looking further a field for serious competition.
