Welcome to Week 2 of the WesternDigital CS 1.6 League hosted by CyberGamer.
Tonight we see all teams battle on de_train, notorious for being a heavily-CT oriented map due to key advantages imposed by spawn and lighting. However, semi-professional and professional teams with a strong sense of teamwork are usually able to take between 6 and 10 rounds as the Terrorist side.

Exile5 vs. NORDLAND
Both Exile5 and NORDLAND won their first-week matches so it will be interesting to see who remains victorious after this match-up. Whilst as a team, Exile5 have been practicing train for a whole week leading up to this match, they will be facing online and lan giant davestr1zl. benoR will be looking to make his entry back to team immunity but will he be able to handle the pressure against KRUZ's 8-week mullet?
"I can quote myself because I wrote this article. My name is sommi. It should be a great match because we have a lot of t-side train strats that we are very eager to use, as well as a lot of CT tricks up our sleeves. I also recently changed my sensitivity and bought a new hat which I will be wearing during the match."
My prediction - Exile5 - We have kruz's mullet backing our team.
uprising vs. WuXiA
BurtoN will be leading his team against the almighty WuXiA. WuXiA have now registered teddyT as part of their line-up and they also have "dekkO" who also has great IPGN stats. After the demise of KBS, teddyT will be playing alongside PeteyG and dekkO to try and grab a much-needed win against the BurtoNator.
"In my opinion... BurtoN's strats are so keen that they might implode upon themselves and cause the map to spontaneously explode after executing the first T-pistol."
My prediction - WuXiA - I have hugged both teddyT and BurtoN at WCG 2010 national LAN - and teddyT was wearing Jean Paul Gaultier cologne... so I have no choice but to predict a teddyT 30-bomb.
Archaic vs. Vehement
Archaic will be burning from last weeks loss to BurtoN's team 16-14. So burning, that apoc has probably changed his crosshair to small and black, which is his special delivery for de_train matches. With the likes of simcore, n1ck and apoc, we are expecting to see a game with a lot of flash and smoke spam kills. VHM are lacking practice but expect tiduS to donut as he hasn't been playing ipgn. Expect a big CT half in this game with minimal Terrorist side opportunity.
"sommi: what do you think about tomorrow's match?
apoc: Sir it's actually dreamR I've tagged up as apoc."
My prediction - Archaic - Apoc to hold vines successfully and clutch two times.

reguLators vs. Mayhem Brothers
Regulators will be coming off a hot-streak from their last victory of 16-0 against True Legacy. Regulators are ranked 1st and Mayhem Brothers are ranked 3rd so expect this match to be tight. With the likes of T4T4NK4 and roffEn providing the clutching potential for reguLators, Mayhem Brothers are expected to put up a good fight. The legendary dreamR will be providing deagle headshots at vines and peki will be working on trying to swindle a potential regulator-forfeit via some form of admin ruling.
Whoever can take better control of the CT money system will definitely be the winner of this match as both teams seem likely to rely on their AWP to turn rounds in their favour as teamwork will not be as efficient as the calibre in the Black League.
"To be honest we're expecting this match to be close because it's really going to depend on which team gets CT first. For a top-tier Blue league team, we think that whoever dominates the CT half first will win the match."
My prediction - reguLators - Unless crystal sh4rd can out-ipgn the other team, expect reguLators to take full advantage of AWPs outside on train.

EMC |
Team Immunity Female vs. Eggman's Money Crew
The immunity website reports that Team Immunity Female have finally touched down in Queensland to commence their bootcamping. Yes folks, I am not joking. Anyone that's betting the match to end up in iM's favour will be betting that it's not their time of the month (or is it?). Sporting the legendary females kiRa` and maddy, iM's best chance as Terrorists will obviously be inside because high heels won't get you anywhere outside on the rocky rubble.
EMC was founded by Eggman. And yes, the rumours are in fact true - he does have a head shaped like an egg.
The EMC achievements page is basically just a list of tournaments they have 'Attended' and 'Qualified' for. And for all those tournaments they 'Qualified' for, they basically just signed up. Expect EMC to only last 2 minutes on the field of battle with the iM female team and succumb to their seductive ways. Also EMC have hans in their team, and he's asian.
"Three questions have pondered the cs community since the dawn of time. They are: How old is kalgo? When will ESAU get a new website? And of course, does hans cheat online? Maybe the third question will be answered in this match."
My prediction - iM female - If they wear push-up bras and use decent inside-fake strats, expect EMC to blow their chances out the door.
