Nations Cup Update No. 2

Players have teamed up and practiced, played the National Tournaments and every Nation now has a team representing their flag. The fights where fierce, as we could see in the stream of Siberian yesterday. Blood has been spilled on the battlefields and even professional players like Barton have lost their games to other, stronger teams.

Players

So who are these teams? Which players will represent their country?!
Let's give a round of applause and a warm welcome to all 48 players!!

Famous Names as CieZ, OMGPOP and CaptainSPrice will without any doubt serve us splendid games, but 2v2's are something completely different than 1v1. We saw Barton and his teammate losing in the Polish National Bracket, so individual skill isn't evenly important as in 1v1! We might see some underdogs winning from bigger individuals as their teamplay will be better.. Games will tell.

Brackets - Live Drawings

So where are the brackets? The brackets will be drawn 100% LIVE on RewindTV on Friday 5/12 @ 20.00 CET! Casters will draw the teams one by one, so at the end of the show we will know which country will go up against which country! And it's not over after that, what would a stream without games? After the match, we will stream a showcase on the new 100% balanced map, created and designed by our Map Design Team. We will stream a 2v2 match on the new map 'Rambrouch'!

Maps

Winter has made its presence in Europe and the first snow has fallen. The once green farmlands of Vaux Farmlands are now covered by a thick pack of snow. It's a beautiful sight, but don't let it fool you.
Soon, Allies and Axis forces will meet on these seemingly calm and peaceful lands..
Games will be played on Summer versions of following maps, but our Map Designing Team did a great job by giving them a winterish look.

Players can choose out of the following maps;









To play these maps, subscribe to all 4 maps in the workshop of kreatiir. The maps will be downloaded automatically. Open a custom game and invite some friends to play a game on one of these wintermaps.

!!! These maps are completely the same as their summer variants, so no ice, no deep snow or no blizzards. Just a wintery look!
