Welcome to the fourth tournament of EGS Season 3 hosted by Voluble & DarkTemplar. . This season we had doubled our admin team and capacity to incorporate two leagues to create a pyramid system in the competitive community, we hope you enjoy this pyramid and format and we hope you continue to back us to look after the state of the community!
The tournament will be hosted on Sunday the 16th January at 20:00GMT. There will be a transfer ban for this tournament. The tournament will be played in the standard 5v5 format. Teams will have to fight their way through a groupstage in order to claim victory.

Every team must read the following rules as they are very important and EGS rules are different compared to normal tournaments.
We were kind of disappointed by seeing that even some captains didn't even read the rules. Please, read it all.


Roster Rules
- Rosters are capped at 10 people as you are aware.
- Players MUST sign up with their community names ONLY. No roleplay names allowed.
- Must also use community faces rather than randomized ones OR you face punishment (refer to EGS Rules)
- Transfer deadline is set at 5pm (17:00 GMT) the day before every tournament . After that, not a SINGLE change will be allowed.
[close]
General Rules
- Melee speed will be set on medium.
- The only class allowed is the line infantry.
- You aren't allowed to spawn if you are not playing.
- All matches will be ft5, apart from the  Round 2/Semi Finals and Bronze Match (ft7) and the Final (ft10).
- A good behaviour is expected. Insulting/toxicity will lead to 1 warning then a suspension from matches.
- Cheating once will result in a permanent ban of any future EGS tournaments.
- ID MUST be provided, if not, players with ID's missing won't be allowed to play. It can result in a temporary ban or even more.
[close]

Match Rules
- Once a match has been called, each team has ~5 minutes to get ready.
- If the first round is not started within ~5 minutes, the responsible team will be punished, as 1 round will be awarded to their opponents.

- After each round, each team has ~1 minutes before they must have typed 'r' again.
- If the next round is not started within ~1 minutes, the responsible team will be punished, as 1 round will be awarded to their opponents.

-The rules above are controlled by the referee - if the referee says ~5 or ~1 minutes is up, then the time is up.

-If there is clear delaying in a duel at the end of a round after 2 minutes then a warning to the fight will be given. If the player continues to delay or run from the duel then the admin can slay the player.

-In any case of a server crash/map change if it is to happen, then all current rounds WILL be VOIDED.

-tiebreaks will be; 1- wins vs tied opponents ; 2 - points

Introduction

Spoiler
Welcome back to league 2! The Christmas and winter break now also ends for League 2. The action resumes with the smallest format, the 5v5.

[close]
Prediction

Spoiler
The champions of the first 5v5 tournament GoodFellas again look to be very dangerous. With high-tier players such as Maximou and FoxTrot in such a small format, they will be hard to beat. If they wanna win the title the rest of the team has to play to their top as well. The second favorite for the title is Gordon. Having made some strong transfers they now have a very balanced 5v5 roster with the likes of Naatsuu, Galavant, and Faisan. But they need to find consistency over a whole tournament. In the season so far they have often failed to fulfill expectations.

Further title candidates are Crappers, Amigos, and Spectre. Crappers, the 6v6 champions are without a doubt the best-organized team of League 2. But in such a small format they could be lacking a little portion of individual skill on the first 3 positions. The german team Amigos are placed second in the overall standings but are yet to win a tournament. If they can bring Faser and Nosswill to the field they are a good bet on the tournament win. If not it could well end in another semi-final. The last potential tournament winner is Spectre. The reigning 7v7 champions are only going into their second ever tournament. It will be interesting to see how they deal with the different format. Everything from a quarter-final exit to the tournament win sounds like a reasonable prediction for them.

DwC and PRY are the 2 teams that could start a big run but are not necessarily favorites. DwC has already placed twice inside the Top 3 this season, still, the 5v5 looks like a format where they are good but not good enough to do something really big. They are simply missing 1 or 2 really strong players. PRY hasn't really shined yet, but with the addition of Ruler and players such as Sticky and Maskman they surely have the potential to play a quarter, maybe even a semi-final in League 2.

SubV and the 7pp are two mid-tier teams one should look out for. SubV is an actively practicing team with good chemistry just waiting to finally produce a good result. While the 7pp has added 4 international players, some of them looking very decent for League 2. Will be interesting to see their influence.
[close]
Players to watch out for

Spoiler
Players who you should watch for potential MVP this Sunday: Faisan, Rikus, Maximou, FoxTrot, Nosswill, and Yovko.
These players can play a key role in getting their respective teams to a tournament win: Naatsuu, Galavant, Stockholm, Chainsor and Valley.
You dont have them on your list, but they are strong: Herp, UnRealTime, Aenye, Krembit, Lulu and Maskman.
Players who wanna carry their mid-field teams to a good result: Sticklitz, Maxi, Desant, and Banane.

Satisfied with my boys, they managed to pull themselves together in a very difficult situation, they deserved to win their first tournament, I hope not the last:)

GG, well played CCCP Jnr! Wish I could’ve stuck around and played the whole tournie but as bread winner of the 45thN I had other duties. Proud of the PRY guys mentality after a shakey start to the group stage to come back with victories over crappers and the eventual winners.

With it being the first time many of us played together it’s safe to say this is only the beginning.

Really happy for you guys to pick up a medal. I quickly changed from saying we won't need our first line up against you to sweating my ass out in disbelief.

Really looking forward to seeing where you guys are at in a couple of months.

Yes, that's right. Different countries have earned gold in past tournaments.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but league 2 -> 4 different winners? Is this shit more interesting than that boring-ass league 1?

Yes, that's right. Different countries have earned gold in past tournaments.

'Tis true this yes. League 2 has been very enjoyable to spectate. I genuinely think many teams could make one good tourney run and end up top 3.

Of course it's more interesting, League 1 had 2 stack teams and pretty much all the top 20 players were in them both combined. 1 of those 2 teams now died so it's even less interesting.  ::)

Review

Spoiler
 
The second and last League 2 5v5 tournament of the third season of the European Groupfighting Series ended with the 4th winner in the 4th tournament. Teams back in form, surprising performances, welcomming old faces and the top three teams falling short.

Group A was probably the most dramatic group of all groups this season. Every team, including the new 5v5 champions CCCP Jr., had two losses and wins. A heartbreaking tournament for teams like VIIe Corps and Elements. The only reason they did not advance was due to their worse round difference. Especially for Elements, since they were able to beat the current number1  team in the overall team standings Crappers, who placed second behind the suprise team Prime Rohan Yatts. PRY lost their two opening matches against VIIe Corps and Elements, both teams that did not advance. Showing big courage afterwards winning against CCCP Jr. and Crappers to become first place in their group.

Group B was also quite an exiciting group. All three advancing teams had a 3-1 record. SubV upsetting the groups first Amigos in a 4-5 game, winning the other two matches against 45e and 25pp but loosing against the second place Spectres, ultimately deserving the third in the group. Amigos got their revenge against Spectres, winning convincingly their wirst match 5-1. Spectres rounds up the group as second place with good finishes against the other teams in the group.

Group C showed French domination. Both French speaking teams, GoodFellas and Coureurs des bois, advanced as the first two seeds, Nr59 rounding the group as third place up. GoodFellas only dropping 5 rounds during the whole group stage, with two 5-0's and only loosing rounds in the French derby and against the group last 2Lr, secured them their deserved first place. RG fell short against every opponent that advanced, but played a good match against 2Lr, earning a 4th place in the group.

Group D showed another domination, but this time the team's international. Gordon also only dropped 5 rounds throughout the whole group stage, loosing the most rounds against the other advancing teams, DwC and Noodle Alliance. Nevertheless no match for Gordon was nearly close to a defeat. DwC and Noodle Alliance winning their must win matches against RF and 7pp earned them their spots in the playoffs. In the clash of second place DwC had the overhand, winning the duel 5-4.

Spectres, reigning 7v7 champs, lost in their first round in the playoffs against the German team Nr59. The first upset is done. The next one immediately followed afterwards, when CCCP Jr. beat DwC convincing 5-2. CCCP Jr. did next the upset in the following round, against the French team GoodFellas, who was third in the overall standings. A very convincing 7-3 win ended up in a deserving semi finals spot. On the other side of the same playoffs bracket were the top 2 teams, Amigos and Crappers. Crappers won again a playoffs match against the German team. The match went the full duration and ended 7-6, after the German side lost two big advantages, leading 5-0 and 6-3 during the match. Nr59 also advanced to the semi finals, the second time this season. Last time it also was the 5v5 tournmanet. The semis were two very dominant matches, CCCP Jr. winning 7-2 against Nr59 and Gordon winning 7-1 against Crappers. It was their second 7-1 in the playoffs this tournament. The final was intense from start to end. Gordon starting with a convincing 7-3ish lead. The match ultimately went to the full duration, where CCCP Jr. crowned themselves as the new 5v5 kings in the second league.

Most Surprising Player Performances

Spoiler
With JackieChan returning to Napoleonic Wars Gordon was a title contendor. Even though Galavant, aka. JackieChan, was inactive in the past, he definitely showed something different. Topping the server with KD and kills was a familiar act the German/American showed. EpicPizza and Vegi, both also Gordon, showed great performances throughout the whole tournament. Desant and Benedict were the top players for the winning team CCCP Jr. Benedict later being voted as team MVP also showed his great performance.
