Paras
The all finnish side, Paras have taken in some big wins during the season, their starplayers are Domin and feari, the latter havn't been as active, but I'm sure we get to see him in action during the playoffs. Paras stand good chances, they usually prac a lot and have a solid teamplay.
Fallen Angels
Fallen Angels had quite an unstable lineup last season, that's been sorted out by taking in the russian anupko and the swedish feffe, both players have shown to be a great addition to the team. However problems getting games scheduled during the start of the season, forced the team to take in former member Whimp to get their games played in time for the playoffs.
Conclusion
I'll pick Paras as the favorites for this matchup, if they manage to field both Domin and feari they should be able to do quite some damage on both DM2 and CMT4. Fallen Angels however is dependant on the form of Anupko and especially their starplayer Peppe who's had connection problems the past few weeks. I expect Fallen Angels to take home E1M2 as this is currently their best map. If they manage not to choke under pressure, they might be able to take home DM2 as well. While I see Paras taking DM3 and CMT4 ending with yet another kenya decider on CMT1B.
Expected lineups
Paras: Domin, feari, Panjabi, Heag/ netspider
Fallen Angels: anupko, Peppe, ncp, feffe/ Whimp/ Zalon
Previous encounter
2-0 (e1m2: 226-181, dm2: 188-115)
Expected outcome
Paras, 3-2
