Pissed Cobs
PC only managed to play 5 games during the season resulting in 3 wins and 2 losses. Their win versus DC1 was probably their best performance while the wins versus CSN and DC2 were more expected. They had some problems with activity and for a while it was rumored that they had quit playing altogether. During the season they added xenic and mipa and especially xenic will be a strong addition for the playoffs. Their strongest map is E1M2 with 100% wins while having 50% on DM2 and a disappointing 33% on DM3. As expected Panic didn’t play a single map yet.

Chosen
Chosen managed to play all 8 games during the regular season winning 4 and losing 4. They were Badly beaten up by A2K and PC while getting close to FU on DM2. Versus DC1 CSN managed to win E1M2 while being obliterated on the other two maps. The 4 2-0 wins were all pretty convincing although the DM2 versus Ax3 was taken into overtime. Perhaps the most unexpected 2-0 win was their last game of the season versus SSC despite them fielding katsku instead of rekk. Chosen have been strong on E1M2 and DM3 while playing kind of awful on DM2

Conclusion
This game can go either way depending on what players PC manages to field. They have been unable to field their best lineup in each game and maybe the activity problems have been the source of this. CSN have used a lot of players but it seems like they will be able to field most of their stronger players for this game, niw is excluded however since he left CSN just as the playoffs were about to start. I expect PC to proceed to the semifinals but not without a good effort from CSN to try and keep PC from achieving glory.

Expected lineups
Pissed Cobs: United Kingdom Pillo, Belgium Furi, Finland Xenic, Sweden Sailorman
Chosen: Sweden Pyta, Sweden Donut, Sweden Sajko, Sweden Hooraytio and hopefully Czech Republic Flamer and/or Finland Vert. Finland Kalma announced he won’t play and Finland Junkass suffers from bad ping.

Previous encounter
2-0 (dm2: 281-93, e1m2: 240-163)

Pissed Cobs wins, 3-1
