Hypnotik: Iron Raiders - this tourney to be particular: http://worldoftanks.com/uc/tournaments/8-The_Drill_boot_camp/   And the "reborn" MLP didn't come from SSGS - the only mlp that went there were Kensei and myself (although a few helped with battle calling at the start up of pbkac).

dance210:   The tier limit is Tier 7, light tanks only. That means that you can bring any light tank, Tier 1 - 7, up to a total of 29 tier points.   E.g. Four Tier 7s and 1 Tier 1 = 29 points across 5 players

pizzastorm: I feel that I will never be as proficient as I want to be.  Always something new to learn.

TragicLoss: Are you using the wrong client I.E. the EU client instead of NA? (Ignore if you don't have any other clients installed.

TragicLoss: Well, if it wasn't a tragic mistake, it was a somewhat tragic loss of credits...

TragicLoss: I would finish their skill/perk before moving them up and retraining, that way they still can use that perk

Captain_Judo:   If you don't have an opponent tonight, this means your team gets to enjoy a bye for the round. Use the tournament sheet link for a broader picture of Skirmish 8's playoff bracket. You'll see that you're set to face off against 201st Strykers tomorrow.

Hypnotik:   As I said, more info will come regarding Campaign 3 as we get closer to it. For now, no hints.

Quemapueblos: Tank Companies this Wednesday are going to be interesting. I'm pretty sure Hyp will have learned Portuguese by then. He promised!

Quemapueblos:   Nesta edição da serie de Clãs em Foco vamos dar uma olhada na Game Over, O primeiro Clã Brasileiro a estar em destaque. A Game Over consiste de jogadores que são em simultaneo experientes ou relativamente novos na Guerra de Clãs. Vários jogadores do Clã também fazem parte do time de torneio com o mesmo nome que acabou de terminar a temporada na Liga Ouro da WGLNA, e eles têm um time mais novo que está se saindo bem na Liga Bronze da WGLNA.   Nós entrevistámos estes jogadores para saber mais sobre o GAME-OVER:   GANDORFO - Comandante epinto – Vice-Comandante, ajuda no recrutamento HenriqueDante – Soldado, ocasionalmente Comandante de batalha Giggmaster – Tradutor Extraordinário (não está no clã)   Você pode desafiar [-GO-] esta quarta-feira às 8:00PM BRST (3:00PM PDT) em Companhias de Tanques de nível Campeão para poder ganhar algum ouro, e acompanhe as batalhas no Twitch para ver Quemapueblos e Hypnotik tentando seguir ordens de batalha em Português.   Quando o clã foi formado, como ele foi formado e quais são as metas? GANDORFO – Eu já tinha esse clã guardado. Ele foi formado com a primeira leva que saiu do antigo clã ROTA em 2012 e o primeiro nome do dele foi Action Team. Os jogadores do ROTA foram saindo para diversos clãs, MLP, Forge, -G-, e depois quando estávamos na VOLT tínhamos um time BR lá com o apoio da liderança do clã. Entretanto, a situação foi ficando difícil, porque esse time BR jogava muito torneio e o horário de CW não batia certo com isso, e foi aí que resolvemos abrir a Game Over, tirando nosso time da VOLT para jogar a segunda campanha.
  epinto – O início do clã não o conheço bem.
  HenriqueDante – Sim, o que eu ia falar você já falou.   A segunda campanha aumentou a exposição do GO. Qual a importância da segunda campanha para o clã e como o ajudou? GANDORFO – A segunda campanha trouxe muitos jogadores, fomos o único clã Brasileiro a conseguir a missão da campanha, conseguindo assim trazer vários jogadores, de altos e de baixos níveis.   Como é o vosso processo de recrutamento e que características estão procurando num jogador para ele entrar no clã? HenriqueDante – Tem que ser Brasileiro e não ser chato (risos), porque no resto pode entrar qualquer um.
  GANDORFO – A única coisa que pedimos é que o jogador mantenha o compromisso a partir da altura em que entra no clã, respeitar todo o mundo no TS e no jogo também, fora isso no resto nós damos um jeito. Stats para nós não é muita coisa, porque nós temos baixos stats e ainda conseguimos ganhar de vez em quando de alguns times fortes. Pinto, quer falar alguma coisa?
  epinto – (risos) O que queres que eu diga? Estavam a dizer que só deixavam entrar Brasileiros, já tou aqui a mais! (risos)   Há algum requisito ou não só pra brasileiros ou se tem alguma restrição contra portugueses?
GANDORFO – Não tem requisito contra nenhum tipo de nação, basta a gente conseguir falar…
GANDORFO - Português, comunicar   HenriqueDante – Se comunicar, ele tá bom.   GANDORFO – E nós damos um jeito.   Como é que o clã se vira com zona horária, já que a zona horária para a gente é complicado. GANDORFO – É, é complicado.
  HenriqueDante – Dormir pouco (risos)   epinto – Para mim é complicado, muito complicado.
  GANDORFO – É por isso que nós não vamos atrás de confusão com gente grande assim para querer tomar o território deles porque não podemos por causa do horário. Nós conseguimos um time, se o horário fosse uma ou duas horas mais cedo, para nós ajudaria, mas como não ajuda nós vamos empurrando um grãozinho de cada vez.   Qual seria o horário perfeito para CW e como seria a participação nesse horário?
GANDORFO – É, 21h, horário local nosso seria ótimo. Aí, nós teríamos o quê, de 100 fichas teríamos 60 online, 70, para poder jogar. Neste momento, 22h, temos 44 pessoas no TS da GO. Daqui a pouco, vai ser dificil ter um time, por causa do horário.   Como é que o vosso clã lida com a diplomacia, já que a maioria dos Clãs no mapa falam inglês? HenriqueDante – A gente usa o GiggMaster (risos)
  GANDORFO – É, a gente usa o GiggMaster (risos)   Giggmaster – Obrigado! Mas eu não sou do clã! (risos)
GANDORFO – Nós temos vários jogadores que não falam fluentemente Inglês, mas alguém entende um pouquinho, uns escrevem...   HenriqueDante – o Nipp100 - [HAVOK] quebra galho …
GANDORFO – Aí, temos amigos de fora que quebram galho também para nós. A diplomacia que temos feito ultimamente é na bala do canhão; que a gente não faz diplomacia, não. É chegar e jogar e tentar ganhar.   Quanto do vosso sucesso na Guerra de Clãs vocês atribuiriam à diplomacia e à habilidade? HenriqueDante – 70%-30%.   GANDORFO - 30% conversar e 70% jogar para cima dos caras.
  GANDORFO – A realidade é a seguinte: nenhum clã vem fazer diplomacia com a gente enquanto não perdeu a primeira batalha. Primeiro eles vão e testam-nos para ver se eles aguentam, quando eles não aguentam eles seguem para a diplomacia. O nosso pensamento é simples: para nós não tem clã grande nem tem clã forte. A gente vai martelar até o cara vacilar, e na hora que ele vacilar vamos entrar. Nós somos teimosos. Basicamente é isso, não temos jogadores de alto nível, mas nós somos teimosos, a gente martela até furar.   É difícil recrutar pessoas numa comunidade pequena? GANDORFO – A comunidade não é assim tão pequena…
  HenriqueDante – É que há muita divisão, muita gente que não se une e tem vários clãs. A comunidade é grande só que…
  Giggmaster – É, eu concordo.
  epinto – Há demasiados clãs para tão poucos jogadores.
  GANDORFO – E os melhores jogadores brasileiros querem ter uma tag mais alta, querem jogar em clãs mais conhecidos, -G-, VOLT…   Como é ver gente saindo para outros clãs grandes, se arrependendo e voltando para clãs Brasileiros? HenriqueDante – A questão é que os BR que vão para outros clãs grandes, eles já falam Inglês, então eles não sentem problemas nisso.
  GANDORFO – E a maioria que vai, ou quando um vai ele fala Inglês, ou num grupo que vai a maioria não fala mas um sabe Inglês.
  epinto – A gente sente-se melhor num clã Brasileiro, não é?
  GANDORFO – O Brasileiro que joga muito bem, é um BR da antiga, é um BR que tá no servidor desde que quando começou CW, e esses BRs já sabem a malicia dos clãs, aí acaba indo pela malicia um pouco, vamos na tag, vamos ali, tá dando um gold aqui, tá dando um gold ali, ocorre também muito isso.   O que aprenderam sobre Guerra de Clãs e gerir um clã que vocês gostariam de tivessem sabido quando começaram? GANDORFO – Na Guerra de Clãs, poucos jogadores estão pela fama de estar no mapa, de querer estar brigando toda a noite, querer defender a bandeira, e tem jogadores que estão ali pelo gold, que são os tais mercenários. Hoje em dia não tem nenhum clã brasileiro que pague alguma coisa, os que querem ganhar alguma coisa vão para outros clãs. Os que ficam é só pela bandeira mesmo.   Como você gerência hoje as pessoas no clã entre aquelas que querem só jogar, que querem-se divertir e aquelas que são mercenárias?
GANDORFO – Mercenários não temos, porque não temos nada a oferecer. Eu dou algum gold para alguém trocar um consumível…
  HenriqueDante – Ou um módulo.
  GANDORFO – Um módulo, ou coisa assim. A única coisa que o clã fez, que eu prometi na segunda campanha foi que quem jogasse todo o dia pegaria o tanque (VK72.01K), e quem jogou todo o dia pegou o tanque. Fora isso, a gente não promete muita coisa. Estamos jogando CW, mas não estamos jogando contra times fracos. Nós jogamos todo o dia contra times fortes para aprender. Se fosse para entrar no mapa e ficar juntando gold por 2/3 dias, nós teríamos time para isso mas aí não ganharíamos nada, não ganharíamos experiencia, não ganharíamos tática. A única coisa que podemos oferecer é a glória de ganhar de um time forte, mais nada.   Tem alguma decisão que a liderança tomou que se arrependeu? GANDORFO - A única coisa foi acabar colocando muita gente no clã no início para completar ficha, e agora essas fichas estão paradas e estorvando o clã, e é o que eu estou fazendo agora, limpando o clã.   Estando no Brasil, longe do servidor, como é a experiencia de jogar com uma latência forte e ping alto? HenriqueDante – A gente calcula dois segundos e meio em média na frente de onde o alvo está rodando. (risos)   GANDORFO – É isso aí.   Ter nascido de um time de torneio da Gold League ajudou o clã a ganhar notoriedade? GANDORFO – Ajudou um pouco, mas só na divulgação. A gente não mistura o nosso time de torneio com o clã. O que o time conseguiu não é de hoje, nós estamos trabalhando nele há muito tempo, e é apenas mérito do time. O clã está tentando ganhar seus méritos agora. O time GO vem desde o tempo em que eu jogava no clã ROTA em 2011. O clã é da segunda campanha para cá.    Como é que o Clã lida com os conflitos entre partidas de Guerra de Clãs e partidas de torneio? GANDORFO – É difícil ocorrer isso, porque nessa parte somos muito cuidadosos.
  HenriqueDante – A gente administra bem isso aí.
  GANDORFO – A gente só vai para cima de um time de CW se não tiver nenhum time nosso de torneio na ativa, para poder jogar no horário. Um exemplo, hoje tem jogos do time 2 da GO na Bronze League, só que vai ter também CW. No horário da primeira batalha de CW eu vou ter um time para conseguir suprir, e na segunda batalha esse pessoal já vai estar liberado para poder jogar. Nós cuidamos muito isso, mas nós damos preferência para torneio.   Qual foi vossa batalha favorita de Guerra de Clãs, seja da campanha ou em geral? GANDORFO – A batalha que nós ganhamos…
Giggmaster – Aquela da -G-, né?
  GANDORFO – O conflito que tivemos com a -G- na segunda campanha, que eles queriam pegar um mapa que tinha pote de ouro, e nós conseguimos segurar por três dias eles batendo, martelando todo o dia e todo o dia levando uma pisa, foi uma batalha muito… muito boa para nós.   Essas batalhas ajudaram a que a -G- não conseguisse o primeiro lugar. HenriqueDante – Sério?   epinto – A gente sabia.
  GANDORFO – A gente sabia disso. Os clãs em volta liberaram o mapa para a -G-, não sei se a -G- foi com diplomacia para eles ou não, mas eles não vieram fazer diplomacia com a gente e nós fizemos a velha diplomacia com o canhão, entendeu?
  Giggmaster – (risos)  
Se pudessem pedir uma mudança, no sistema todo de CW, independentemente da limitação da WG, mas uma mudança que gerasse uma vantagem tremenda para a GO, qual seria?
GANDORFO – O que ajudaria a gente seria ter o horário da CW mais cedo.
  Giggmaster – (risos) É verdade.
  GANDORFO – Fora isso, para nós tá ótimo.   Tem algum tipo de preparação antes da batalha? HenriqueDante – A gente abre uma sala de treino e vê o modo de funcionamento do time antes de a gente lutar.
  GANDORFO – Meia hora antes. 
O vosso clã tem algumas tradições interessantes?
epinto – Piadas do richtrmoc   GANDORFO – Nós temos um jogador que precisamos de botar ele em todas as batalhas, e todas as batalhas ele dá 0 de dano, e ele é totalmente show, mas ele é muito querido do pessoal do clã.
  Giggmaster – Quem é esse cara, hein?
  GANDORFO – O richtrmoc
  HenriqueDante – Ele é a ovelha negra.
  epinto – E ainda conta uma piada antes.
  GANDORFO – E ainda conta a piada
  HenriqueDante – Ele sempre conta uma piada.
  Giggmaster – Agora me lembro disso aí, é verdade…   HenriqueDante – Sempre conta piada antes e nunca faz nada na batalha.   Quem é o melhor jogador do clã, excluindo quem tá na sala nesse momento? epinto – Para mim é o PublicEn3my
  GANDORFO – É, os melhor jogadores do clã são o PublicEn3my e o Extream. O Extream tem andado meio sumido, mas voltou agora.   Querem fazer algum comentário em geral, ou sobre o segundo time que está na Bronze League ou outros? GANDORFO – O primeiro comentário é agradecer à Wargaming pela oportunidade e agradecer pelo que eles estão fazendo no site já para BR, as traduções, colocando o Capitão_Desastre para poder ajudar no fórum, procurando ajudar o jogador BR em si. A questão do time da Bronze League, nós sempre vamos ter times em torneios. Ganhando ou perdendo nós vamos estar lá, tentando dar o nosso melhor e continuar jogando sempre como nós jogamos.   Giggmaster – Puxa-saco… (risos)  

Quemapueblos: Landlord stage started on June 10th and the last Stage ended on July 26th

pizzastorm: That was awesome.  Nothing exciting ever happens to my tanks when I ram someone. 

dance210: There are two playoffs.   You are looking at the tournament for Playoff 2. Your team is scheduled to play in Playoff 1 (http://worldoftanks.com/uc/tournaments/842-Skirmish_8/single_eliminations/305191-Playoff_1/?draw=1) 

pizzastorm: I like this 

pizzastorm: I used to take make a friend shoot me in a training room to find the best angles. But yes, it is tank dependent.

Quemapueblos:   In this edition of the Clan Spotlight series we are giving you a look into Game Over, the first Brazilian Clan to be featured. Game Over consists of players who are both experienced or relatively new to the Clan Wars scene. Several players from the Clan also participate in the tournament team of the same name that just finished a season in the WGLNA Gold League, and they have a newer team that is doing well in the WGLNA Bronze League.   Check out the Portal Article here! We interviewed these players to learn more about the history of Game Over:     GANDORFO– Commander epinto – Deputy Commander of [-GO-] who also helps with recruiting HenriqueDante – Soldier, occasional battle caller GiggMaster – Translator Extraordinaire (Not in Clan)   You can challenge Game Over to Champion Tank Companies this Wednesday at 3:00 PM PDT on the NA East server and watch it on Twitch to see Quemapueblos and Hypnotik try to follow battle calling in Portuguese.   When and how was Game Over formed and what are your Clan’s goals? GANDORFO – I already had this clan planned. It was formed from the first batch of people that left the clan ROTA in 2012 and its first name was Action Team. The ROTA players left for several clans, MLP, Forge, -G-, and when we were in VOLT we had a Brazilian team with the support of the clan leadership. In the meanwhile, things got tougher since that BR team played in a lot of tournaments and CW schedule clashed with it. That’s when we decided to start the GO clan, bringing our team from VOLT to play the second campaign.   epinto – I don’t know the beginning of the clan well...
  HenriqueDante – Yeah, I was going to say what you already said.   The second campaign increased GO’s exposure. What was the importance of the second campaign to GO and how did it help the clan? GANDORFO – The second campaign brought in a lot of players, and we were the only BR clan to complete the campaign missions, and with that we managed to bring in many players of different skill levels.   What is your recruiting process like and what qualities are you looking for a player to join your clan? HenriqueDante – He has to be Brazilian and not be annoying (laughs), because other than that anyone can join.   GANDORFO – The only thing we ask is that the player keeps his commitment to the clan when he joins and that he respects everyone on TS and in game. Other than that, we can work it out. Stats don’t mean much to us, because we have low stats and still manage to win every now and then from strong teams. Pinto, do you want to say something?
  epinto – (laughs) What do you want me to say? You were saying that only Brazilians get in, I’m no longer needed here! (laughs)   Is there a Brazilian only requirement or is there any restriction on needing to know Portuguese? GANDORFO – We have no nationality requirements, all it takes is that you can speak Portuguese, communicate…   HenriqueDante – If the player communicates, he’s OK.   GANDORFO – And we’ll work with that.   How does the clan handle the different time zones, since your time zone situation is complicated? GANDORFO – Yeah, it’s tough.
  HenriqueDante – We sleep less (laughs)   epinto – For it’s complicated, really complicated.
  GANDORFO – That’s why we don’t go picking fights with the big clans to take their land because we can’t due to the schedule. We manage to get a team together, and if the schedule was earlier, by an hour or two, it would help us. But since we can’t do it, we’ll do it one step at a time.   What would be the perfect schedule for CW and what would participation be like in that schedule?
GANDORFO – Yeah, 21h our time would be great. In that case we would manage, what?, 60/70 chips online out of 100. Right now, 22h, we have 44 people in GO’s TS. In some minutes, it will be difficult to field a team because of the schedule.   How does your clan handle diplomacy, since most of the Clans on the map speak English? HenriqueDante – We ask GiggMaster (laughs)
  GANDORFO – Yeah, we ask GiggMaster (laughs)   GiggMaster – Thanks! But I’m not in the clan! (laughs)
  GANDORFO – We have several players that don’t speak English fluently, but somebody understands a little, some write…
  HenriqueDante –  Nipp100 [HAVOK] gives a hand.   GANDORFO – That’s it, we have friends on the outside that give us a hand. Lately our diplomacy is done with our guns; we aren’t doing much normal diplomacy. We get there, we play and we try to win.   How much of your Clan Wars success would you attribute to diplomacy vs skill?
  HenriqueDante – 70%-30%,   GANDORFO - 30% talking and 70% taking the fight to the other guys
  GANDORFO – The reality is like this: no clan will try diplomacy with us until they lose the first battle. First they try and see if they can take us out. Then, when they see that they can’t, that’s when they go for diplomacy. Our thoughts about this are simple: as far as we are concerned, there are no big clans or strong clans. We will charge until they make a mistake, and when they make a mistake, we get in. We’re stubborn. Basically that’s it, we don’t have high level players, but we are stubborn, we will charge until we go through.   Is it hard to recruit from a small community? GANDORFO – The community isn’t that small …
  HenriqueDante – There is a lot of division, people that can’t unite and we have several clans. The community is big, it’s just that …
  GiggMaster – Yeah, I agree.
  epinto – There are too many clans for our number of players.
  GANDORFO – And the best Brazilian players want to have a better known tag, they want to play for the better known clans, like -G-, VOLT…   How is it like seeing people leave for other big clans, regretting that, and coming back to BR clans? HenriqueDante – the thing is that the Brazilians that go to other big clans, they can speak English, so they don’t have that kind of issues.
  GANDORFO – And most of them, either they go on their own and know English, or they go in a group and one of them knows English and handles communication
  epinto – We feel better in a Brazilian clan, right?
  GANDORFO – The Brazilian that plays really well, he’s an old school Brazilian, he’s been on the server since the beginning of CW, and they already know the clans tricks, so they work a bit through guile, we’ll go to that clan, gold is being given here, gold is being given there, that also happens a lot.   What have you learned about Clan Wars and maintaining a clan that you wish you knew when you started?
GANDORFO – In Clan Wars, few players are there for the fame of being on the map, of fighting every night, of defending the clan’s flag, and some players are just there for the gold, the so called mercenaries. Nowadays, no Brazilian clan pays anything, and those who want to win something go to other clans. Those who stay are doing it for the flag.   How do you manage the people in the clan between those that just want to play, those who want to have fun and those who are mercenaries?
GANDORFO – We don’t have mercenaries, because we don’t have anything to offer them. I give some gold to someone to buy some consumables …
  HenriqueDante – Or to switch a module.
  GANDORFO – A module, things like that. The only thing the clan did, that I promised for the second campaign was that whoever played every day would get the tank (VK72.01K), and those who played every day got it. Other than that, we don’t make promises. We play CW, but we aren’t playing against weak teams. We play against strong teams everyday so that we. If it was just to get on the map and farm gold for 2/3 days, we have the team to do that, but then we wouldn’t have anything to gain from it, we wouldn’t gain experience, we wouldn’t gain tactical knowledge. The only thing we can offer is the glory of winning from a big team, and nothing else.   Is there any decision that the clan leadership regrets? GANDORFO – The only thing was getting too many people into the clan in the beginning to get chips, and now those chips are useless and hindering the clan, and that’s what I’m doing now, cleaning the clan.   Being in Brazil, far from the server, how is it like playing with the high latency and ping that you have? HenriqueDante – On average, we have to think two and a half seconds ahead from where the target is right now. (laughs)   GANDORFO – Yeah, that’s it.   Has being based on a Gold League team helped the clan gain notoriety? GANDORFO – It helped a bit, but only in getting our name out there. We don’t mix the tournament team with the clan, they are separate entities. What the team has achieved wasn’t done today, we have been working at it for a long time, and it’s the team’s own merit. The clan is trying to make a name for itself now. The GO team dates all the way back to when I was still in ROTA in 2011. The clan only dates back to the second campaign.   How does your Clan deal with the conflicts between Clan Wars and Tournament battles?
GANDORFO – It’s difficult for that to happen, we are really careful about that.
  HenriqueDante – We have that part covered.
  GANDORFO – We only go for a CW battle if none of our tournament teams are active, so that they can play in that time slot. As an example, today the second GO team has some matches for the Bronze League, but we also have CW. For the first battle, I’ll be able to get a team together to cover for it, and on the second battle, the tournament guys will be ready to fight. We are really careful about it, but we give priority to tournaments.   What was your favorite battle that you fought in Clan Wars, during the campaign or in general? GANDORFO – The battle that we won …   GiggMaster – The one with -G-, right?   GANDORFO – The conflict we had with -G- on the second campaign, that they wanted to take a province that had a pot of gold, and we managed to hold them off for 3 days. They were charging us every day and every day we beat them, that was a really, really good battle for us.   Those battles contributed to G not being able to take first place.   HenriqueDante – Really?   epinto – We knew.
  GANDORFO – We knew it. The clans around cleared the map for -G-, don’t know if it was diplomacy or not. No one tried to do diplomacy with us, so we did the old diplomacy with our guns.
  GiggMaster – (laughs)   If you could ask for a change on the CW system, no matter the limitations of WG, but a change that created a big advantage for GO, what would it be?
GANDORFO – The thing that would help us the most would be an earlier CW schedule.
  GiggMaster – (laughs) That’s true.
  GANDORFO – Other than that, we think it’s good.   Do you have any type of pre-battle preparation? HenriqueDante – We go into a training room and look at the way the team has to work before we go into battle.
  GANDORFO – Half an hour.   Does your clan have any interesting traditions?
epinto –richtrmoc’s jokes.   GANDORFO – We have a player that we have to take for every battle, and every battle he does 0 damage, but he is really liked by everyone in the clan.
  GiggMaster – Who is that guy?
  GANDORFO – richtrmoc.
  HenriqueDante – He’s our black sheep.
  epinto – And he still tells a joke a before the battle.
  GANDORFO – Every time with a joke.
  HenriqueDante – He always tells a joke.
  GiggMaster – Now I remember that, it’s true…   HenriqueDante – Always tells a joke before and never does a thing in battle.   Who’s the best player in the clan, excluding those present?
epinto – For me, PublicEn3my
  GANDORFO – Yeah, the best players in the clan are PublicEn3my and Extream. Extream has been missing, but he’s back now.   Do you guys want to make a comment in general, or about the second team that is in the Bronze League, or something else? GANDORFO – First, we want to thank WG for the opportunity to do this and thank them for what they are doing with the portal in Portuguese, translating, getting Eurico to give a hand in the forum, helping the Brazilian players as a whole. About the Bronze League team, we will always have tournament teams. Winning or losing we will be there, giving our best and playing the way we always play.   GiggMaster – Ass-kisser… (laughs)    

dance210: If you're talking about how the teams will be matched up in Group Stage 2, the groups will be re-done. While it's possible to see a team you've already faced, you are more likely to see different teams.

dance210: Next week will indeed be against the same group, with a different map.
