ETF2L Premiership: Infused.Tt vs. CKRAS

Week 1 of ETF2L has already kicked off, with only one premiership team actually scheduling their game in this week (which apparently is a first) for tonight.

Like I stated before I will write short articles (mostly stealing) about the premiership teams playing in the Europe. This game will be casted by TCM’s finest Byte and Admirable –  who pledged to write one TF2 article everyday on the premier e-sports coverage website known as Cadred. You can find his latest article here.

Cropped straight from VanillaTF2

Note – It is played at 21:15 est. This is the same time as SA but they normally start 15min later, this is TF2 , we all are late.

If you choose to watch the game through TF2. You will need Mumble. Or you can choose to watch the game through a live stream, if you are to lazy to “direct” the camera yourself.

ETF2L: Season 10

Bored of actually playing TF2? Want to enjoy a great fantastic self-made dinner and learn some extra info on TF2 competitive?

Winning online cups? It’s dabest

ETF2L, the biggest Team Fortress 2 league in Europe, has published their divisions and what an exciting season this will be. With the premier division actually being Top8 TF2 teams to compete for that number 1 spot starting this Sunday.

So who will win this season? This is an exciting season for me personally and hopefully i’ll find you in the STV. The teams schedule their own games, although the maps are chosen for every week. So all the teams need to do is set a date for the game and we can spectate.

There is this website I stalk maybe you have been on it? It is  Vanillatf2.org and they do a great job at casting these fantastic games. They give more insight on the situation so you will understand why a team does what. Also it is just epic to hear someone SO 3XCIT3D TH4T TH3Y C4NT 3V3N T4LK IN 4 STR4iGHT S3NT3NC3 (oh soz caps) .

For all the tables have a look on the ETF2L site.

 The STV IP (how to connect to the game) will be posted on VanillaTF2. I will make posts regarding when the games will take place, also if they will be casted. The teams will schedule their games for next week so expect info in the near future. You will need mumble to listen in on the cast and on certain special occasions you can listen to the teams comms, which in my books is A+.
