Scout and Demoman are the only 1on1 cups that make sense imo.
But other ones with more players could be interesting :D
3on3 Spy…. who can you trust? xD

So what is with the last 2 missing teams?
Are we waiting longer or will there be wild cards for 2 of the 62 teams?
October 6th, 2008 at 9:12 pm
Is it double-elimination or not?

Brilliant, I have been waiting for a decent 1v1 scout cup, thanks!
And to the poster who said about their being an ESL scout 1v1, thats not true. Technically there is, but it is so awful that you can’t really claim it exists.
Thanks <3

Awesome, a 1on1 Scout Cup is absolutely brilliant! =D
ESL sucks badly, allthough it’s fun to play a match every once in a while.
