Lions & EG through to playoffs

Lions and Evil Geniuses have both survived the so-called group of death at WCG 2010 in Los Angeles.

After winning their first two matches, Lions were in a better position than the rest of the teams of their group, and could even afford to lose their final match if not by a big margin.

In the final match, Lions could not fend off the threat of FACE2FACE, and lost to the French team 18-12 after being up 10-5 at the break. The other match pitted Evil Geniuses against Immunity, and the American side eased past their opposition with a score of 22-8.

These results caused a three-way tie in the group, with EG coming out on top due to a better round difference (+2) between the tied teams, followed by Lions (+0) and then FACE2FACE (-2), which throws the Frenchmen out of the tournament.
