  Along whit the cheering, heckling and sledging. Ill totaly be doing some wooping, and there might even be some stamping of feets.

  Uh... Mercury vs Evolve or Die never happened because EoD folded mid-season before we even had the chance to play, our scores were all reset to a 4-0 defeat to make it fair for all teams.

  Nice to get some publicity around this, should be a fun match! While we (arc) beat Mercury during the group stage, they've improved tenfold over the months that have passed since then and I don't think anybody should discount them from potentially taking the title.
  
  Blind/Wasabi/Strayan streamteam should make it even better, so definitely recommend loading up that stream come thursday evening.
  
  
  Some clarifications: We're not "mega-Fins" (lol) and we're not led by Zeikko (he's been very busy since he graduated, and regrettably had to leave the team a while ago). We're European (two swedes, one finnish, one french, one german, one austrian and one norwegian) and are led by Scrajm and Koruyo.

  GGs. Mercury played really well the first round, and almost drove us to insanity with the phase gate spam on round two. The last two rounds were not as great, though, mostly because we got a "lucky" egglock on round 3, which meant the last round was just for show.
  
  Stats:
  
  Game 1.
  Game 2.
  Game 3.
  Game 4.

  Congratulations Archaea! A victory well deserved, it seems! Was fun watching and I hope I learned a thing or two.

  Lucky? You walked in and killed them all.
  
  If I may make a humble suggestion: I would use that strategy more often. Its expediency seems unrivalled.

  I'm not even going to try and understand any more.
  
  I merely utter the dreaded word "exploit", in its completely correct English use, and I'm the bad guy. Fair enough.
  He then calls what they did "lucky", and I disagree, and yet again I'm the bad guy?
  
  I hope you know how lacking in logic gang mentality is.
