Last night the Grand Final of the WGT tournament
was played between MYM and roccat. The match was played until 4am to
decide the winner of this years DreamHack Summer.
A
lot of exciting matches have been played at this years DreamHack Summer
2008, the WGT tournament, but also ESWC Sweden National Final. All-time
favorite fnatic was beaten twice by SK Sweden and got knocked out of
the WGT in Round 1 already.
The last day had hours of delay until all the matches were finished and
the Grand Final started at 2:30 CET last night. Still both teams, MYM
and roccat were on top of their game, and played a thrilling match. The
first map was close with MYM winning 16-12 on de_nuke but the second
map, de_train, was even closer going into overtime.
In the end, MYM managed to take down roccat with 19-15 in overtime once
again winning an event after a few disappointing results. MYM played
amazing throughout the whole weekend and deserves their 1st spot as
well as the 6000€ prize.
The third place decider match does not seem to be played yet and it is
also not sure if it is going to be played at all. Below you can see the
final standings of both, the WGT and ESWC Sweden.
