With such heavy hitters on this team, was the outcome ever in question? 

Well, the first match might have had you thinking, at least halfway through. Team Slayer on Lockdown was tied 25 each. Finally eXcellence pulled ahead, winning by 13.

The next match was CTF on Sanctuary. eXcellence made quick work of USA and won that match 3 caps to none.

Finally, King of the Hill on Lockdown. eXcellence once again showed it’s dominance. Not only winning by a large margin, but having map control. Snipedown had some simply SICK snipe shots. But would you expect anything less?

So eXcellence moves on to play TCM, winners of the Gamescom Halo 2 Anniversary tourney. That match up promises to be a great one. Likely the best match up of the tourney. Since this is a double-elimination tourney, both teams have the opportunity to face each other again in the Finals.

Who will come out on top?
