IEM5 World Championship is very close

Do you want CS? Come and get some!

There are only four days remaining until the big IEM5 World Championship event starts and I am very sure that all of you got enough popcorn and beer for five days of live stream, hltv and high level counter-strike action from your favourite teams and players.

Less than four days remaining until IEM5 World Championship starts, so let's take a closer look at the groups and teams:

GROUP A	GROUP B
1. mTw	1. SK Gaming
2. TCM-Gaming	2. fnatic
3. Moscow Five	3. Na'Vi
4. Frag eXecutors	4. Lions
5. compLexity	5. redCode
6. UMX	6. Evil Geniuses

Taking a closer look at Group A, mTw and Frag eXecutors are clearly the favourite teams to get into the playoffs, followed closer by compLexity and Moscow Five. Based on the performance mTw achieved at the last event (IEM5 European Championship), we really expect to see our guys in the final again! I must say that Group A is the easiest one, so it won't be a big problem for us to advance into the playoffs.

Group B looks like hell! We can't make any predictions here yet because almost all the teams are very strong, got good tactics and a huge gaming experience, so it will be very dificult for all of them to advance into the playoffs. But we can still say that we expect fnatic to secure a spot in the playoffs, or maybe in the semi-finals.

A recent facebook update revealed the medals that will be handed to the IEM5 World Championship

Following the medals announcement, the trophy was also revealed trough another facebook update. The trophy is the same design as last year, which was a nice upgrade from the season three trophy.

We will also get a live stream on 1st March from IEM5 World Championship so you can all watch it live from our website, so stay tuned for more informations!
