BGDonLINE win Gaming Festival

BGDonLINE managed to come out as first placed at the Kaspersky Gaming Festival 2011 in Belgrade and earn themselves a solid 900 euros prize.

The tournament featured 32 teams, seven of which arrived from abroad and were mostly considered favorites compared to the local teams. However, it turned out that Serbian teams managed to put up a much better fight compared to previous tournament, KGB CM Storm, as now only HEADSHOTBG managed to place in the top four of all the foreign teams.

Bulgarian side was however knocked out before the final, by BGDonLINE, who succeeded in that mission which many teams from Balkan failed in previous regional tournaments. The two met in the semi-final where the Serbian team came out on top after 3 maps.

In the final they met with iNation who previously defeated IDZUO and nbk.ro during their road to the last match and were considered one of the most pleasant surprises of the tournament.

The final between two local teams ended after two maps when BGDonLINE clinched the first prize with 16:11 and 16:10 victories on de_inferno and de_nuke, and proved that they were the best team at this tournament, only dropping one map on their title-winning campaign.

In the third place match, a somewhat disappointed Bulgarian side HEADSHOTBG managed to overcome one of the biggest surprises of the tournament IDZUO in two maps. IDZUO previously managed to turn some heads by defeating one of the main favorites, DPS, in the quarter-final.
