After more than two months, the Team Tournament, which began near the end of November is finally coming to a close. More than 100 teams have taken a part in this tournament, and at long last we are down to the final two!
The Spanish powerhouse Los Reyes Del Mambo faced off against Excello and MicroGamerZ took on the rising French squad, Sexy Team in the semi-finals. Before examining the final match, have a look at how the semi-finals transpired.

| LRM)MIStrZZZ / LRM)ZZZero | 2-0 | xLo.Fenix /  xLo.eXc | ||||||||||||||||||||||
This clanwar went down to the wire. After LRM lost three of the five 1on1 matches, xLo only needed one win in the 2on2s to secure their spot in the Grand Final. They nearly reached it too, with the first 2on2 match ending up in a 2-1 victory for the Spanish duo. xLo had another chance in the second match, but were again defeated by the duo of LRM. After a nail-bitingly close war, Los Reyes Del Mambo was able to earn a great victory and a spot in the finals.
| MgZ (4-3) (9-8) sT | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
 MgZ)Oldy | 2-1 |  sT-Jule- | ||||||||||||||||||||||

 MgZ)TroNiC / MgZ)Oldy | 2-0 | sT-Jule- / sT-Scroll- | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Another epic clanwar, with sT taking the heavy favorites MgZ to the final match, in which their 2on2 could not take both matches needed to give them the victory. Another great semi-final clanwar that showed a very powerful sT team, who has had some very impressive results recently nearly winning, but in the end, MgZ proved to have the poise to take control when it counted.
An interesting twist for the Final
Within the past week, both LRM and MgZ have acquired sponsorship. This will be the Mambos second war as IDGaming while the MicroGamerz are making their debut as the new squad of Excello. This should make the war even more exciting.
The Grand Final of the Team Tournament will commence this Sunday, Feb 17th at 21 CET. The format will be 5 1on1 and 2 2on2 matches, with the starting maps being: Into The Darkness / Vampire, of course the loser chooses among the rest of the map pool.
Good luck to both teams and this will prove to be an amazing clash of titans!
