Highlander Nations Cup #1 Roundup & Season 13 Maps

Highlander Nations Cup #1

The first ETF2L Highlander Nations Cup has come to a close. 30 teams signed up for this tournament, and they have been whittled down to our winner – Germany. Congratulations to Germany for winning the first Highlander Nations Cup! According to team captain  Thy* they did not play a single practice match and completely relied on their superior deathmatch abilites. Apart from that, he had the following to say

“We are very happy to win this competition after we lost to England in the 6vs6 Nations Cup. It was a really good experience and if there is another tournament like this one day we may play again. Thanks to all teams that competed and a special shoutout to Sweden and France for great games. Now give us our money!”

The full standings are as follows:

• Winner: Germany – winning £972
• Runner-Up:  France – winning £225
• 3rd Place:  Sweden – winning a bronze pixel trophy!

Many thanks go to the anonymous donator who gave £1000 as a prize for this Highlander Nations Cup. ETF2L added another £197 to make it easier to divide the amounts by 9 players. Many thanks also to VanillaTF2 for providing coverage to as much of this competition as possible, you can catch up with any missed VODs here.
