Czm and Harlsom will play tomorrow for the upper bracket finals, so lets take a minute to see how they got there.

Czm:
 Czms first match was with a player named "beer." Czm had NO problem taking out beer in 2 games with a score of 56 - -1 on DM2, and an event high score of 75-0 on DM4. That match would set the pace of every game to follow, and Czm seemed to have a lot of great energy heading into his future matches. Once Beer was dispatched, he grabbed a forfeit win over G4-arfs and looked forward to his next opponent, claw.

In my predictions, I stated that Claw might be able to give czm a run for his money, but I had no doubts that Czm would take the series. Claw was looking pretty good in BYOC practice games as well as previous tournament games. Claw seemed knock quake 3 superstar Succubus into the losers bracket fairly easily. Czm however, just blew by Claw like it was still Round 1 of the tournament. While EVERY other round 3w game was considered a good game, Czm vs Claw turned out to be a blowout in Czm's favor. Czm earned 40 frags on Dm4. Next highest frag count in Round 3w? Fellow quake 3 star, ZerO4 with 25 frags against Thane Cyan.

This is where things seemed as if they would become more difficult. Czm's next opponent would be none other then the real [5] FienD. Czm, yet again, destroyed his opponent on DM4 with a score of 38-8 but DM6 was another story. FienD jumped into an early lead on DM6 leading 6 to -1 with quite a bit of time left in the match. Czm soon realized he was getting beat, and kicked it up a notch to take the map and the series with a final score of 16 - 7.

Up next Czm and Xoque will play in the winners bracket. This Face/Off Finals rematch had a lot of predictions expecting it to be close, yet Czm shows us just how prepared he is for this tournament. He takes out Xoque on DM6 with a score of 28-2, and narrowly squeezes by DM2 (considered to be Xoque's best map) with a score of 6-3.

So czm now sits in the finals waiting for the chance to play Harlsom. Currently Czm sits undefeated in this tournament, with a record of: 8 maps won, 0 maps lost.

Harlsom:
Harlsom started out the tournament with high hopes and the chance to defent his country in the largest quakeworld event of the year. His first match would be against the #63 seed 'beverly' .. but we would not get to see that match due to beverly's absence. Harlsom then moves on to face Acid in Round 2w of the tournament. Harlsom holds acid down pretty well as he takes him out 16-0 in DM2 and a high scoring 48-0 on DM4. At this point, Harlsom has not one frag against him.

Round 3 seemed to be just as easy for the Aus player, as he breezes by Diz without a problem. The scores were a bit closer this time, but good enough to get by with the win.

Harlsom's next draw was the #10 seeded Core. Harlsom is quoted in saying that he was a little scared of Core's abilities and that Core was able to defeat some well known players. harlsom did not seem to be bothered by this in the match however, as he sweeps the series on DM2 (9-3) and DM6 (13-6). This would also mark the first series that Harlsom did NOT play DM4.

After dispatching Core, the name of a Quake 3 superstar stood in his way. Fatality was able to take DM2 away from Harlsom in overtime by a score of 3-2, but Harlsom was just too much for him on DM6 and DM4. Harlsom would score an impressive 45 frags against Fatality on DM4 for the highest frag count of the round. Once Fatality was disposed of, Harlsom began to look at what he has to face on the other end of the brackets.

Harlsom's record: 8 maps won, 1 map lost

So whats in store for the spectators? My predictions are that Harlsom will pick DM4 for this match and Czm will play DM2. Harlsom's 'in your face' aggression will work towards his advantage on DM4, but after losing to Fatality previously I think Czm will see that mistake and try to exploit it. I belive this will indeed head to 3 games, and DM6 is a dead heat between them. My final predictions:

Czm over Harlsom: DM4 = Harlsom's, DM2 = Czm's, DM6 = Czm's.
