Beautiful weekend for eSuba, our players won over 200.000 CZK

 ASUS Extreme Gaming: Sněžka conquered!

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team around Tomáš „benq1“ Masaryk embarked on Saturday to another domestic event, or our unique show-match with a competitive team Fraternitas. It was unique because it took place right on the highest mountain in the Czech Republic – Sněžka. So this third Extreme Gaming tournament was perhaps really the most extreme of all organised event of this kind.

Harsh winter and strong winds were waiting for our players and that’s definitely not a funny thing when playing CS:GO. Nevertheless it was a nice match which was dominated by one single team – eSuba. Our team didn’t give many chances to their opponents from Fraternitas and so after BO3 duel they celebrated the overall victory 2:0.

Final ranking

• 1^st place:  eSuba.INTEL – 35.000 CZK
• 2^nd place:  Fraternitas – 15.000 CZK

 DreamHack Cluj-Napoca 2015: Faeli got silver in PGL Winter Tavern Tales

The first DreamHack in Cluj, Romania (Cluj-Napoca) was attended by five players from our Hearthstone section who fought among dozens of players from the whole Europe. Some did batter, some worse, just the way it goes in HS. One by one, eSuba players tasted the unpleasant taste of defeat and elimination. So gradually Martin „Silhan“ Plachý, Nikolas „Swissking“ Kožlej, Mikuláš „Pokrovač“ Dio and the newest team member Pavel „Sychry“ Sychrovský were eliminated from the tournament. So our last representative on the card battlefield was Oldřich „Faeli“ Mahdal.

Olda performed really well since the beginning of the tournament and benefited from it the whole time. As a result he went through all game groups straight to play-off where he continued to the grand finale. There then his proverbial luck left him and he finished in the second place. Silver medal is, however, also beautiful, especially at a tournament like DreamHack. It has the price of gold.

Final ranking

• 1^st place:  hanniballz2 – 246.000 CZK
• 2^nd place:  eSuba.Faeli –  123.000 CZK
• 3^rd and 4^th place:  Kevineter +  Modernleper – 74.000 CZK

 ESWC 2015: After three runner-up titles, tween brings the bronze

The third event where eSuba appeared over the weekend was the World Championship – the Electronic Sports Worlds Cup 2015, which is for several years hosted by France. Our driver stable goes there regularly to fight for the title and this year was no different. Only with the exception, that this year only one of our representatives raced in Paris – Marek „tween“ Pacher.

Tween was a huge favourite before the start but the start of the tournament showed something else. He finished in the last place in Time Attack and had a lot of troubles in the first round of WB where he balanced on the edge of Losers Bracket. However, he managed to rebound and performed really well in semi-finals and the finals of WB (which he even won) and advanced to the top four best players. The Grandfinale then was incredibly balanced and Marek got from there a new medal for his collection – the bronze medal which he is more than satisfied with.

Final ranking

• 1^st place:  CarlJr – 197.000 CZK
• 2^nd place :  Pac – 98.000 CZK
• 3^rd place:  eSuba.tween – 49.000 CZK
