On the podium, we see the French finally climbing on that first place, after their silver medal of last year.
After them, Team Sweden, who shown strong matches throughout the whole cup, achieving one of their all-time best performances.
The portugal took the third place, like last year. Falling in semi-final against the french, but winning the portuguese speaking derby.
And finally on the fourth place, we have the Brazil, performing their best result in a NationsCup, after beating all others South American nations who had signed up during the group stage, thus truly being the best latino nation of the moment.

This season was the biggest of all in UrT's NationsCup history (some could argue it also was the longest one, for reasons against our will), with 24 nations at the start. Amongst those, there were several new ones, like most of the Latino's or Russia, who fought the best they could. I bet we could get even more signups next year!

All matches proved to be intense and interesting, with some less-known team drawing, or even winning the old winners, while the others were fighting hard to show the world what they were worth of. This was an exciting cup, and the next one will be even better.

Thanks to all the ones who helped us during this cup, especially the awesome GTV coverage from the guys at #urt.tv. You made a wonderful job, providing entertainment for everyone.

Thanks for signing up, playing, bringing us tons of exciting games, watching those games, and see you next year!

Expected Line-up

This will be the last match of this Nations Cup, opposing the Portugal to the Brazil.
This match will determine who will climb on the 3rd step of the podium, after the French and the Swedish.

The first map will be Casa, played in TS. This is Brazil's pick, proving once more they are a TS team before everything else. Both teams are known to be good in that gametype, let's see who will win it.


The second map will be Turnpike in CTF, a strategical pick by Portugal as they known that this gametype is not Brazil's favorite cup of tea.

In case of a third map, it will be played in bomb, and picked by the teams using the elimination system.
As there will be a GTV - IP will be spammed on IRC - let's hope that this match will be entertaining, with the Samba on one side, and the Vira on the other one.

There's only one sure thing about this match, the future bronze winner will speak portuguese.

Expected Line-up

This final might sound as a rematch of one of the very first match of this cup, opposing Sweden to last year's silver winner, France.
To enforce that, both teams did pick the exact same map than the first time they met.

The first map will be Turnpike in CTF, Sweden's pick, a map on which they have been impressive during the whole cup.
However the French proved during the whole cup to have a very good CTF line-up, who knows what can happen.


The second map will be Casa in TS, the French pick. Despite the fact that the Swedish have always been strong on that map, they already won it once against them, with the strategical choice of not having a single sr8 to counter Chrille.


All in all, the match is likely to be very tense, as both teams have practiced a lot during the whole cup, while at the same time shown strong performance against various opponents, like last year's gold and bronze winners.

A GTV will be there, stay tuned on IRC to have the ip.
Let's hope that the show will be entertaining, and why not, that we will have a 3rd map to watch (played in bomb, picked by the elimination system) !

Good luck both, this is your last fight this year, may the best win!

Expected Line-up

This is going to be the second semi-final of this NationCup, starring two teams which proved to be strong during the whole cup, even eliminating the previous gold winner.

The match will be a kind of turnpikiathlon, as both teams picked it, but with different gametypes.

First we have Sweden who picked in CTF, after beating the Netherlands on it. Even if CTF ain't Brazil's favorite gametype, who knows what our dear latino guys will invent this time to surprise us and try to win.

The second map, or at least part of the match as we won't leave the metro, will be played in TS, Brazil's pick. A smart one, as they won't have to face chrillo's sr8 at narrow on casa for example. The Brazilians have always been known as TS players, as well as the Swedish, the map promise to be quite exciting and tense.

In case of a map tie, the 3rd one to be played is unknown and will be decided by the teams, using the well-known elimination system. However, its gametype will be forced to bomb.

A GTV will be there for the event, stay tuned on IRC (#clanbase.urt @ Qnet) to have the ip.
CBooky odds are set, place your bets.

Good luck and have fun.

After a little delay to get the last matches played, we can finally move on the playoffs stage.
As we will be using a single elimination scheme for this, matches cannot end anymore in a draw. If this happens, a third map has to be played, the gametype will be picked by the supervisors while the map will be chosen by the teams using the well-known elimination system.

Please do not forget to send us what map and what gametype you are picking for your playoff match when you make your challenges!

The first match set has to be played as soon as possible, so start challenging them right now. The gold medal is only a few match ahead of this match so it's time to prove that you really want it!
