Well, after multiple delays, the [cpl] UK World Tour Stop CS competition is underway. Slowly albeit, as a large proportion of those due to attend did not turn up. In addition to
Team Wings,
Bz,
aAa.cs,
iEngland and
Endzone, new unannounced drop-outs include
mouz,
a-Losers,
Clan-IT,
c4u,
pod.graz,
minim and
Selected 5.
This has left the competition with 20 teams as opposed to the originally proposed 32. As such, many teams have got a bye through to the 2nd round, leaving the only first round fixtures to be played as:
Upper Bracket Round #1: (~17:00 GMT, de_inferno)
velocity <
ethernet (05:16)
Just A Shoot >
psyc (16:06)
Engineonmute >
casual5 (16:00)
Imagine >
LicK (16:06)
All other teams received byes into the second round.
Lower Bracket Round #1: (N/A)
All teams that lost in the first upper bracket round receive a bye through to the 2nd lower bracket round (where they will then face teams who lost in the upper bracket 2nd round).
Upper Bracket Round #2: (~19:00 GMT, de_dust2)
SK >

Tomorrow's Fixtures:
Lower Bracket Round #2: (tomorrow, 10:00 GMT, de_cpl_mill)
Many teams that lose in the Upper Bracket 2nd round and so consequently drop into the Lower Bracket will receive a bye straight into the 3rd round of the Lower Bracket, due to the lack of teams already in the lower bracket. However, some Upper Bracket round #2 losers will be unfortunate enough to face a Lower Bracket round #2 game as well, against the teams that lost in the UB 1st round...
veLocity vs
ImaGine
psyc vs
Engine on Mute
casual 5 vs
Just a Shoot
LicK vs
ethernet
All other UB 2nd round losing teams receive byes into the LB 3rd round.
Upper Bracket Round #3: (tomorrow, 11:00 GMT, de_cpl_mill)
SK.swe vs
Team 9
4 Kings vs
mibr
Catch-Gamer vs
g3x or ICE Gaming
NoA or GameHotel vs
NiP
