The path through the playoffs is rarely as straight as a Roman road. For the teams in ETF2L's Highlander Premiership division this season was no exception. Unfortunately, Veni Vidi Vici were not able to match up to their name. They came, they saw, but they were not able to conquer inVision in the semifinal match.
The Grand Final match saw inVision face the defending ETF2L Highlander champions, Super Dickmann's KANNONEN! It was a best of 3 series on the maps pl_upward and cp_steel, with koth_warmtic being the tiebreak. Check out the match between these titans on KritzKast's YouTube Channel!
