Slackers
Slackers is on a run at the moment, beating the Viper Squad twice within the past 2 weeks, first at QHLAN 14 and then back online in their EQL group game! With their solid 3 of Murdoc, ParadokS and zero finally finding a permanent 4th player in en_karl, they no longer have to rely on inactive oldschool members.

CCCP
CCCP started to play late in the season so they aren't in their best shape and a barely active gor doesn't help in making them the strong Russian team we are used to seeing. They have however shined in certain games, beating Sauna 2-1 for one and with the addition of moltas this is a team of very skilled, experienced players.

Conclusion
The late start and lack of activity will make CCCP an easy target for probably the most active clan this season and preseason, not to mention currently the best clan in EQL thus far. I expect Slackers to take this home with relative ease.

Expected lineups
Slackers: en_karl, Murdoc, ParadokS, zero
CCCP: meshuggah, moltas, XN, xpr

Previous encounter
2-0 (cmt1b: 395-52, dm3: 230-150)

Expected outcome
Slackers, 3-0
