and fourth respectively. The Master Blasters, Farside, Chicago Aftershock, Annapolis A-Team and the Ironmen would complete the nine team semifinals bracket. There were three, three-team brackets in the Pro semifinals with each team playing two games (round robin style). A max and a stalemate points win would get the All Americans past the Master Blasters (one max) and Adrenaline (two losses) in the first bracket. The second bracket saw Los Angeles get a stalemate points win and a max, again doing just enough to get to the next round and sending home Farside (one max) and Adrenaline (two losses). Chicago Aftershock maxed both of their semifinal round games beating San Diego Dynasty (one max) and the Ironmen (two losses). Chicago Aftershock lost their first game to Los Angeles Infamous on body count and then bounced back with a win against the All Americans. The All Americans then lost their second game on body count to Los Angeles. The finals ended with Chicago Aftershock maxing one and losing one, Los Angeles Infamous winning two games on points and the All Americans losing two games. In the end it was Aftershock with the first place win with 106 points. The two body count wins and 43 points for Los Angeles Infamous was not enough for the win but it put them ahead of the All Americans with 25 points. This was a classic old school final round where sometimes a stalemate win is enough and sometimes it’s not. www.paintball.media 099
