Giga Liga is one of the more prestigious tournaments out there for the German community. Mondragon has been the dominating player in this league but didn't quite make it this time.
The Giga Liga starts with a group play and then proceeds to the quarterfinals with single elimination from there on in. The two finalist, Fisheye and Schnibl0r, made it out of the group stage with minor difficulties.

ESA.Fisheye after the match:
It was a tough battle, I came up on top due to my offline final expierences. Schnibl0r seemed to be nervous and stressed because of the noise and cameras, I guess that made the difference that day. Nevertheless his builds were quite good and without my shuttle harassement it might had been the other way around. |
ESA.Schnibl0r:
I dunno what happend but i couldnt concentrate on the game. Besides this fisheye played very strong offline as usual and i got problems with his drops because i didnt recognize them. I hope i will get another chance to play in a Gigaliga final but it looks like that the gigaliga will close soon. gg’s fisheye |
