Ocg Season 1 Recap

Well, it's finally over, and we've had a hugely successful run. We're going to be taking a short break before we open back up with a double elimination tournament shortly followed by season 2.

Congratulations to all teams who were able to come out and play every weekend. The playoffs themselves were a huge success, tried out some new rules, and got positive feedback on them. I'd like to thank purvis for streaming throughout the playoffs and to gecks for casting the semi finals and finals. I'd also like to thank all the teams who made it possible for us to run such a successful season.

The Semi finals and Finals can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/user/OCGINC/videos

So without further ado, here are the final placings and prizes

1st: Socks - 500K Zp + 5x Rocat Savu's

2nd: Carbon - 200k Zp + 5 Razer Mousepads

3rd: Fly society - 125k Zp

4th: Flawless - 100k Zp

5th: coolDOWN - 75k Zp

Again thanks to everyone for coming out and participating.

Now start fighting over that wcg prize and get ready for our upcoming tournament and season.

Good luck to everyone

Ps: If all prize winning teams could xfire (ryangi) or email (ryan@ocgaming.org) me the 5 members receiving prizes IGN's and usn's, that would be great.

    why CoolDown 5th place ?

    Because they lost to vloo when they had 2 round bye rounds.

    RTB deserved 5th place but yaknow.

    " 5th place will be the team that lost to the winning team in the quarter finals " . That what they said . If not we should have more matchs to determine 5th place like 3rd place

    I hate that system lol.

    It should be the teams that lost in the quarter finals should all play for 5th.
  • There's lots of room to improve! :)

    The season was a huge success and thanks to every team participating!

    We've got an announcement coming soon which will continue to guarantee competitive play in CrossFire for the next 2-3 months. We've very excited to continue working with the OCG for more tournaments.

    Plus obviously there are still WCG qualifiers going on, and eventually we'll be moving into CF Stars qualifiers and more!

    So between local and regional tournaments like the ones coming from OCG (and soon to be ESG) and the international competitions involving CF, we are definitely growing our competitive base.


    It's very exciting and we're happy everyone was able to be a part of this OCG Season.


    For the winners, once we receive the information from OCG we will be handing out the prizes. We apologize for the delay on the mouse pads from the launch tournament, our turnaround time for the Mice should be much faster! :)

    Note that OCG will be handling the delivery of the Razor pads.

    lol. RTB is a lot better than cooldown js. we deserve the 5th place but k
  • It sucks that teams got the easiest bracket in the world and got a prize while there was 5+ teams way better than them that got eliminated earlier.

    I'm not here to post on who gets 5th place or not.

    OCG is the one running this league. You can direct your questions to them.

    nice tournament

    tho i like





    thought there was still a match to be had for 5th?






    also, you only saved a few of the casts
    what
  • Basically what Reid said. We hoped to play for 5th, but for some reason it was decided by whoever lost to first place (which isn't really a good way to determine a prize spot in my opinion) 4 way tie for 5th but Cooldown gets the prize over PDF, RTB, and Vgangsta So congrats I guess to you but next time we would love to play for it =)

    Overall I like the 8 grops of 8 layout. I feel like you should have made it double elimination within the groups so there would be no ties going into the playoffs. Also a double elim playoffs would be better as well. Just my input.

    Well, its not like fighting over it but for coolDOWN to have 5th place is just unreasonable haha.

    That's what I said, lucky you. My 2-3 members my team are new to the upload SS cause they usually play on bandis so they have no clue where to upload images =.="! sad, I know.

    Well yeah, it was never our intention, just we asked for SS's and took about 25m to upload so OCG staff decided to DQ you guys.
