The 11th edition of the ET-Cup is coming up and we're about to open the signups soon, but first we need to give some info to YOU so you know what you can expect!

In the upcoming season we'll make a normal cup, not a 1-Day cup, not an invite only cup, but just a normal ET Cup which we all hopefully like. We'll try to get some ETTV to cover some nice matches and to get demo's online so you can watch your idols. We also hope that some EC clans will signup and some clans of the new generation which want to make it in the next EC.

But first, of course you need to know something about what we will make for you:

- 6on6 ET-Cup
- 48 Teams
- 8 Groups
- 6 Teams a group
- All clans are welcome!
- 2 Matches a week, forced on Wednesday and Sunday.

The signups are already opened on our site and will be closed if there are 48 clans which signed up. In this case, you have to be fast with signing up your team.

Match 1: Braundorf_b4 and Sd2
Match 2: Frostbite and sw_grush_te
Match 3: Battery and Radar
Match 4: Adlernest and sw_grush_te
Match 5: Sd2 and Battery

These maps are forming the maplist. The maps are forced for the group phase, but can be picked by the clans in the playoffs. If it's 2-2 after 2 maps, you have to play a decider map with elimination - There always have to be a winner.

The first match will be played on Wednesday 31 May, so upcoming Wednesday - Try to keep this day free so you won't have a problem with your first match, the match can only be rescheduled 1 day after or 1 day before the forced day.

If you have any questions related to this cup, message an op in #ET-Cup and we'll help you out.

The 2nd edition of the NxM 6o6 Cup has ended some time ago, and I still have to announce the winners for you. In the 2nd cup there were quite alot dropouts in each division, but without counting the droupouts, less forfeits. I'm proud that clans took it more serious now and I saw some great results in the Playoff matches. Unforunately, this will be the last cup these days hosted by me. I'll be inactive till the OC/EC and the WL season is over, and then I might come back with a 3rd edition. But after all, it was a great cup again to manage and there are some nice, and some suprising winners, see them below!

Division 1:
On the 2nd place ended is the Polish clan called FBI - TheSyndicate. They nicely won there 2 other playoff matches vs team-beta(4-2) and vs Polewka Team(4-2). In the final they couldn't take any map against the strong Finnish team mYstic-Gaming - SKIT-EVIL, who won there 2 playoff matches vs team-foundation(4-2) and Fear Factory(4-0). In the final mYs won vs FBI with 4-0 and showed a nice performance for ETTV. The 3rd place went to Polewka team who lost vs FBI and came in the 3rd/4th place match to play vs FF, Polewka won with 3-1. In the last cup we had 2 Dutch teams in the top-3, now we are proud with the Polish teams! Btw, it would be good if CB gives both Final clans a try in the EC as a qualifier team, because they gave a great performance in this cup.

1. mYstic-Gaming aka SKIT-EVIL
2. FBI aka TheSyndicate
3. Polewka Team

Division 2:
In this 2nd division, ultima Ratio overwalked almost each opponent, only vs v3 in the Group match they won with 4-2, the other matches are all won without a single map loose. In the Playoffs, uR won the first match with a forfeit vs emerge and won the Half-Final match vs the Estonian team faith. In the final they faced Disposable (Orange) who won the first playoff match vs eC4 forfeit and suprisingly won the Half-Final match vs the new aD team with 4-2, in the Final they couldn't resist uR and lost 0-4. The match for the 3rd place was won by aD, who easily have beaten faith.

1. ultima Ratio
2. Disposable Orange
3. angelDust

Division 3:
In this division, we had suprisingly 3 Finnish clans in the Half-Final, so it could be a finnish top-3, but Prodigy, the Benelux team hold CTN off from winning and ended as third. In the final we had 2 finnish clans, the losing team was TheSyndate who won there first 2 playoff matches vs Earthclan(4-0) and Prodigy(4-0), but couldn't stand Glow-Gaming in the Final, Glow won before vs SurV(4-0) and CTN(4-2) and overpowered sYn in the final with 4-0. The match for the 3rd place was won by Prodigy as I already said above, so there wasn't a total Finnish top-3, they win with 4-2 vs CTN.

1. Glow-Gaming
2. TheSyndicate
3. Prodigy

Division 4:
Last but not least, we also have the 4th division with as winner the European clan Heartbreakers, who won suprisingly vs the Polish Slayers Team (aka Whiners Team) with 4-2. HB first won 4-0 vs log from Poland and after that 4-0 vs the Spain FH in the Half-Final and won the final vs sT. sT won every match before without a single map loose, but they were not good enough to win vs Heartbreakers, sT won first vs tUs(4-0) and in the Half-Final vs BFU. For the 3rd place, BFU and FH faced eachother and the outcome says that BFU won with 4-0 vs FH and is the proud 3rd of this group.

1. Heartbreakers
2. Slayers Team
3. Bloody F* Users

I want to thank on the first place all clans participating in the cup after a thin first cup, and also the people from GTV who broadcasted the Final on ETTV and lunachick who shoutcasted the final. I also like to thank bullvox for doing nothing except helping with the groups and sending ppl to me with questions :P. Thanks to everyone supporting the cup in a good way and hopefully, see you in a next cup!

The 2nd NxM Cup #2 reached it's final stage this week and will show some Finals on ETTV.

» Division 1
The final match in the 1st division goes between the Polish top clan FBI and the Finnish team SKIT-EVIL. FBI played in Group D and won there matches vs HB and cs3r forfeit, but lost vs group winner FF in a tight match. SKIT aka mYstic Gaming played in Group C and won there first 2 matches vs Polewka team (4:0), aD (1:0) and didn't play vs sFx.
In the Playoffs, FBI defeated in the first round the German clan team-beta (4:2) and in the half-finals Polewka team (4:2). mYs won vs recoil (1:0) and vs FF (4:0).
This will be an exciting match, both clans have chance to play the upcoming EC and might participate in WL too.

I hope that there won't be forfeits in any of these final matches like previous season, Good luck and Have fun to the clans playing the finals and show something nice!

After the old oceans6 squad left, o6 didn't search a new squad, but also nobody asked to join them. We as outRaged took the oppertunity to ask o6 if they were searching a new squad and also because Fazz knows the manager qraigu who played with him in an old clan he gave us the chance to proof our skills and to get some nice results under the oceans6 tag. The old squad with legendary players such as butchji, pumu and others left an empty place behind and we'll try to get some good results.

With our new lineup featuring some old outRaged players and 2 new faces we'll try to fight and prac to the EuroCup as it might be unreachable, also because there are many clans who don't know us / our skills yet. We've pracced high skill the last weeks and we're quite sure that we'll beat some skilled clans, also in the upcoming WL season to show the community what we're worth. The lineup consists of the old outRaged players Fazz, matz and antz who were here in the beginning after oR spitted into 2 teams. They were the old oR.eu team with also players such as blake, anim and b4ttl3. Anim is still in the lineup of this new o6 squad, b4ttl3 and blake went inactive in playing ET. The 2 new recruited guys are floris who came from other games such as RtCW/CS:S and snuble who was the leader of the oR.sca squad which folded some days ago.

After all, the lineup of oceans6 consists of the next players:
fazz [Squadleader]
matz
antz
anim
floris
snuble

NxM [Manager]
b4ttl3 [Inactive]
Lavender [Backup]

We placed 3rd on the 4th FastGamingCup and are going to the 5th edition of the Get-Liga cup Sunday and we'll show some skills in the WarLeagues season.

Btw: We'd also like if high skill clans ask us for a prac, we can play Su-Th at 20:30CET and 21:31CET versus your clan, msg one of our members on #o6.
