Yesterday, Sunday, Shane 'rapha' Hendrixson was able to secure himself a place in the Extreme Masters American finals that will be played in Edmonton by beating Sander 'Vo0' Kaasjager 2-1 in maps. Rapha is now first in his group and only has to face 'walter' who has yet to win a single map. If you missed the match, DjWheat was kind enough to stream it on his show Live on three.
Chance went through the tournament confidently, losing to Rapha but beating the old Painkiller legend Vo0 2-1. Vo0 on the other hand has shown an unstable performance, being beaten by Chance on Tourney9 24-1 but beating Rapha on the same map 11-2 and got third place. They will now have to play a relegation round against a third place from another group and Vo0 a relegation round against a player who took second place in another group.
Group B including players like Brian 'destrukt' Flander and Andrew 'gellehsak' Ryder has finished as well. There Destrukt has taken a first place and a tournament seat in Edmonton. He did so convincingly, not losing a single map during the tournament with the only real threat being Gellehsak who took second place and now has to play a relegation round against one of the thirds from another group while Kevin 'KGB' Holowchik will have to play a second seed.
The other groups are going a bit slower, in Group A Thomas 'griffin' Wall and Rafik 'LoSt-CaUzE' Bryant share the first place, however they have both only played one match so anything can still happen in that group, specially with 'relic' having a match won but also one lost.
As for group C the new American hope, Tim 'DaHanG' Fogarty who did very well both at Quakecon and in Dubai is leading his group with two matches played and two victories. Behind him is Daniel 'Carnage' Sturdivant with also two games played but only winning against Brad 'swooped' Olles and losing to Dahang. The group is still not decided however as both Swooped and Jon 'JUDGE_' Leathery have only one match played even though they are losses.
