FireGamers to play OT against H2k

In a shocking decision, the ESWC has ruled that FireGamers will play against H2k Gaming in overtime for the second spot of the group

The Brazilian team had placed second of their group, ahead of H2k, following a 29-1 victory over Mojawi Gaming, but the Swedish side complained to the referees about the result.

After losing the first half 14-1, Mojawi quit the server half way through the second session, when the score was 19-1, with the remaining rounds going FireGamers' way.

As a way to punish Mojawi for leaving the server, the ESWC organisation has decided to disqualify the French team from the tournament, in order to prevent similar situations from happening in the future.

Mojawi's disqualification would leave FG out of the tournament as all of the French team's results have been removed, but on the grounds of fairplay, the ESWC have opted for a different solution.

FireGamers and H2k Gaming will now play in overtime to decide who follows group leaders SK Gaming into the knock-out stages.
