The left corner: wearing the Black, Red and Yellow oufits and the clear favorite to win this match. The country with the hairiest people and best beer: GERMANY! These fierce lads have gone undefeated throughout the cup so far, hell they havent even really been challenged, not even in the playoffs. They are looking strong and seem ready, their 10-0 in matches and 59-11 in submatches most certainly proves that.
The right corner: wearing the White and Blue outfits and the underdog for this match. The country filled with folks who spend most of its time in the Sauna drinking away Vodka: FINLAND! These guys are the reason I believe in the old saying 'losing makes you stronger' as they managed to find their way through tough opponents in the playoffs after having a hard time in the groupstage; only coming in fourth. These fins have grown a lot in the tourney, but have they grown enough to take down the Germans?
The final will take place on 4 September at 16:00 CET. Good luck to both, I hope it will be a sportive and exciting clanwar; a worthy final to an exciting cup. You can now vote on the new poll, anyone voting "What?" will be beaten by Leg. I asked several people what their opinion about the upcoming match was...
Waxangel: "Europe fighting!"
{ToT}SiLeNcE: "Finland will come up with a tough lineup; they've got some skilled members. I think Germany is the favorite, most german players are in top shape and I don't really believe in an upset. Germany has the best 2on2 teams so they'll go 2-0 in that, and maybe 3-2 in the 1on1s, overall 5-2. Greetings to all my finish friends, like ovvi, muhweli and all the others."
[pG]Archi: "I think it will be a good and challenging nw with a lot of close matches regarding the fact both nations have strong solo players. I think we are going to win though because the 2on2s are a more important factor for us, which can decide about our success in this final."
Leg: "Germany, because they are a nation of ferocious hunters, Finland is but a nation of savages"
Rekrul: "Personally, I haven't followed the ClanBase cup one bit before I read this post, so I had no idea who was playing in the finals. I was really hoping I'd see something like Canada vs. Spain in the finals so I could verbally bash the shit out of both of them for being such horrible SC countries. BUT since Germany is in the finals and they are actually a good BW country all around, I have to say they are going to urinate all over Finland, which totally sucks."
iMuukki: "Germany has 2 lineups which could beat Finland easilly, but we have the thing called sisu, so a miracle could happen. In 2v2s we don't have a chance as the German 2v2 teams are really strong. Muh/Napo did really well in wgtour but there aren't any really good German teams playing in it at the moment. I hope that ovvi doesn't have a hangover this time, every nw I played ovvi had a serious hangover followed by a loss everytime!"
0x64: "My thoughts about the match is that Germany wins 4-3 with Finland winning both 2on2's. 1v1 can be close but they will end in the bo3 at 4-1 to germany. That would be the situation if the match was played right now. I believe the line-up for finland will be the strongest ever seen and that every player will do what ever it takes to be at their top. The best scenario for me would be 3-3 situation before the last 2v2 game."
Muhweli: "Germany has a lot of great players and what we're about to accomplish by winning them 4-3 is not going to be easy, but we, full of self-confidence, look forward in this upcoming triumph! And if Germany is destined to win this match, we won't go down easy!"
