The
RtCW-Cup III group stage is now over, with every game managing to be played - with some good tight games over the last few weeks we now go into the playoffs where things should really start to heat up. The Playoff games for the Cup have been scheduled, with a consolation bracket also running for the bottom 2 teams of each group for more games.

Upper Playoff Winners Bracket
Fixed vs. Verdiend
The fins may be disappointed with their second place finish within Group B after such a strong start, but they have proven they have the right stuff already and should be taken seriously by any opponent. The dutch 'deserved' team have proven themselves before online and at LAN, but can they make it count and get over this first hurdle? Both play for the right to play =118= in the next Winner Bracket round.
Fixed players to watch: Jonzi, Sipperi and Sirkka
Verdiend players to watch: 2d, Sir5alL and mAno
KiH vs. raw
KiH come into this game with an unbeaten record, if only narrowly - they look to extend that record against a resurgent raw team who started poorly but finished fairly well in Group B - both teams have the quality to win this game and this should be a great game to watch. The winner plays noPressure in the next round.
KiH players to watch: FeTTe, Ozzy and 
zerom
raw players to watch: abort, 
mAx and viX
Lower Playoff Winners Bracket
team-Omega vs. Indomitus
team-Omega managed a win in their last group game against Cave, showing some potential and could be a problem for Indomitus - although Ind put in some nice performances they never really took advantage themselves, this should be a good game.
team-Omega players to watch: maTze, hAschi and zerb
Inomitus players to watch: homie, 
twister and 
Virus
FallanX vs. Cave
FallanX won their last game in Group B and hope to take this into this game against Hungarian outfit Cave who are yet to win a match. This game could go either way and I think its more down to who wants it more!
FallanX players to watch: phaTe, SaniTy and Steelox
Cave players to watch: d0dy, Isl4m and Yoda
