Match Preview
Battle of the onliners. That is probably the best description of this match if you have talked to most of the Call of Duty 4 community lately. Especially the German side of Enro have been classed as pure onliners, especially by a lot of the high end players, who just can not believe that this team will be able to reproduce the same results on LAN. Looking at Enros recent results, they have indeed gone very far in almost every major competition going on in the community at the moment.

 They have qualified themselves for the Grand Final of the EPS.DE S14, after beating choZen 2-0 in maps, they are in the semi final of the Infused Cup which holds almost every major team in the European scene, by beating Team Celsus (!!) 2-1 last week. They are also in the EMS Season 4 playoffs and last but not least they are also at least in the top 6 of the CM Storm Cup, the last major European competition. Just looking at these results and then knowing the side has yet to attend any major LAN of importance is understandably reason for controverse regarding the side.

 To further fuel the fire. one of Enros players is the notorious Plotch who has been famed and shamed as probably the most legendary hacker in COD2 and eventhough he is supposed to be clean in COD4 people still have their doubts as to his legitimacy.

Then on the other hand there is Team Celsus, the ultimate mixed European side, consisting of a Swede, a Fin, a Brit and 2 Germans. This team has been going strong lately as well, announcing last week their official lineup, which saw  the German player lukz replacing the Dutch player ridzeld. This team has been dubbed online only as well by quite a few people who doubt their online performances can be duplicated at LAN.

However looking at their recent online results the only thing really noteworthy from the team is winning over Team Dignitas in the Infused Cup, who were using a merc for the game. Further then that the team also qualified themselves for the UKESA Championship playoffs where they lost in the semi finals to Quadrifoglio. In the CM Storm Cup the team had an early exit in the lowerbracket and the side did not qualify for EMS this season.

Comparing on results only and on their latest encounter in the Infused Cup Enro Griffins definately have the edge over Celsus in this game, however taking into that this will be the first LAN event for the teams (or at least for playing teams on their level), nerves will play their part in this game, and who ever has the best nerves going into this game and during the game itself will have a major edge.

 Another part which could play it's part is that the map for the final has not yet been decided, this will be done at the event itself tomorrow. Both sides will have themselves prepared on all maps, with especially Enro Griffins being notorious for their rigorous practise schedule (EnRo "24/7" Griffins).

As for my prediction, taking into account the amount Enro practises and their most recent encounter, I definately think Enro will walk away with the win here, however I think they will have to work for it, since Celsus will not have travelled this far to just hand over the cheque. EnRo Griffins 13-10 Team Celsus.

quad didnt turn up because one of their players broke his arm in a car accident. We knew this before hand, but couldnt confirm it, so we still wrote the preview :)

EDIT: the team not the stream idd ;D

Alright, I've just found whats happening with the Championship. Enro will be getting the forfeit win, so will take first place, then H2k will take 2nd and celsus 3rd, because h2k beat celsus in match over 3rd/4th placing. Quad is disqualified, hence celsus and h2k moving up a spot in the final standings. Gratz to the teams i guess!

You can't compare the console version with the PC version.
I've got both, and these guys are really good. (on console)
But it's really different.

yeah as gay as it is compared to PC, it's good for console, especially movement-wise.
they should force them not to use noob perks and red dots though

Yeah no doubt they're good, not too bad on Sabotage tbh watching it now and the shoutcasters aren't bad either; I laughed when the guy punched the desk and broke his monitor, just a bit odd to watch compared to the PC version^^
