Wow, what a match! I had a damn good time, and it looks like everyone else did too! With Round 1 done and dusted we have ourselves a leaderboard! Lets take a look...
Sure enough, we have USA taking the top spot with a full house of 150 kills after dominating Canada through all three of their games. They definitely look to have the strongest team, with the winner of the recent 1v1 tournament, GreatCesar1 amongst them. Europe are valiantly in second place, only dropping 3 kills, with the UK not too far behind them in third with 126 kills, fighting back after a tough first game. And bringing up the rear is Canada with 59 kills. Hopefully they can pick up some speed in their next game after being knocked down so hard.
Now lets take a look at the player leaderboard...
Of course, Team USA take the top four spots with saby0906 earning MVP of Round 1. A solid performance from Team Europe's back up, Shiavona leaves him with the most kills of the round. And check out GreatCesar1, proving his worth only clocking up only 7 deaths over three games! Very impressive performances! However, I'm not too impressed with my own performance...

Here's some gameplay from saby0906 of USA in his 1st game and McSpoish of the UK in his 2nd game!
Round 2 Map
With Opticon seeing enough action for one tournament, it is now time to move on to a new map. For Round 2, also beginning with the letter 'O', we will have the map Orion by SecretSchnitzel! With a Construct inspired design that houses a Rocket Launcher, Sniper Rifle and an Overshield, Orion is a solid map, perfect for competitive games.
Now lets play! This round we have two transatlantic matches which might make it a little more difficult to get together. I have set time slots that most people should be happy with, but feel free to voice any concerns and we'll be able to work out a better time.
Good luck everyone!
