The time has come for the Losers Finals and Grand Finals of the IGN Pro League Team Arena Challenge!


(Wiki)IPL Team Arena Challenge


IPL Team Arena Challenge General Discussion


Stream Link: http://www.ign.com/ipl


When: Thursday, Dec 22 10:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00) (we will also have a European re-broadcast as usual at Friday, Dec 23 5:30pm GMT (GMT+00:00))

Note: This is 3 hours earlier than usual! 2 p.m. PST / 5 p.m. EST / 11 p.m. CEST



Format

This double-elimination tournament features 8 teams from around the world and is an All-Kill team format. This match is being played for the Losers Finals. The first team to defeat everyone on the opposing team's roster (5 wins, or a best of 9), will move on to the Grand Finals, while the loser will be eliminated from the tournament. Keep in mind that this has a $10,000 prize pool, and only three teams will make it to the money!




THE LOSERS FINAL: compLexity MVP vs. Mousesports!


coLMVP and Mousesports are two teams that have made it to the Losers Finals, only dropping sets to Quantic Incredible Miracle. Both teams have contributed to the mighty SlayerS being eliminated from Team Arena Challenge. sC, Noblesse, and now Keen have been the major players for coLMVP so far, with the entire Mouz roster doing solid work for themselves. The winner of this match will go on to play a potential TWO bo9 series against Quantic Incredible Miracle, and the loser will be crowned third place and earn themselves a $1,000 prize. Here are their full rosters:

THE GRAND FINAL: Quantic Incredible Miracle vs. ???????

When: Immediately after the Losers Final broadcast ends, we're casting the Grand Finals!



Format

Because Quantic Incredible Miracle has not lost a match, and this is a double-elimination format, they will only need to win one best of 9 All-Kill format series to be crowned our first place winners and earn the $6,000 first prize! The team coming from the Losers Final must instead win two full best of 9 All-Kill format series in order to win the tournament! Yes, it is possible that we could have an 18-game Grand Finals. The second place team will receive $3,000 for their efforts!

Come on Complexity. You brought IM to the Ace match, making them bring out MVP to win 3 in a row to keep them alive, they deserve a second chance!

Although, IM will dominate in the finals anyway, but I'd still like to see it again. :D

As much as I'd love to root for Mouz, I think that coL.MvP has a better chance in the finals against QuanticIM, Mouz's roster is just simply not deep enough to pull out wildcards in Back-to-back Bo9's in Winner's League.

both these teams would be so good in the finals...but although my heart says Mouz, i'll root for coL.MvP cuz i think they'll provide more entertaining games against QIM...im praying so hard right now for whoever wins to dig out 4 wins in the grand finals so we can see MVP play in a team league again

mouz does not have enough players to field a flexible bo9 team. Much of team league comes down to player selection, not just the skills of the players.

Please MVP smash mouz. Would not like to see IM vs. mouz again, that was brutal. MVP vs. IM on the other hand would be a sick rematch.

@Alex.IGN, Do you have a somewhat accurate timeframe of when the first couple of games / sets are played out? (cus I really wanna see, and I don't mind staying up 'till 3Am, as long as I get to see them (waiting all night for games that wont be played would really burst my bubble :p )

edit: just saw CP's post :D
If you put RoRo on your anti-team you should be ashamed!
