Just look at the tournament table in Counter Strike at CxG. We tried to predict some matches, which we can call "must see". And we wrote a report with our ideas about it.

First round most interesting matches:

In first round not so many matches will be played. All big teams will skip this part of tounament. So we think that
only this match will be interesting for spectators.

 LAN Matrix vs 3DO  @ de_aztec

In the next stage 2 categories of matches will be played. We sort all battles to "interesting" and "fast".

Second round interesting mathces:

At the second stage of this tournament we can see 7 most interesting battles, all of it will make tournament more beautiful. These 14 teams will compete for their places in winner bracket.

 TEC vs Rival

These guys know each other very well, because they play a lot of matches online and LAN. I think this US derby will be strong. Who want to win, have to surprise opponent.

 Four Kings vs NecroRaisers

NecroRaisers is like Dark Horse in this pair. I did not hear anything about this squad, but may be this match can be kind of sensation in the tournament. But i think 4Kings know how to win these battles.

 Team64 vs Phalanx

Like previous match we know nothing about Team64's opponents, so we have another interesting match.

 infinity eSports vs a-Losers

This pair will show us old european styled match. Both sides have great touranment experience. UK team played very well at WCG 2002, but german five showed great performance at LAN not  at once. So we will see who will save place in winner bracket. They will play at de_dust2.

 The Titans vs Team AMD Gamer

This battle will be interesting for the fans of these teams. Again we will spectate strong match with 2 european teams participation. The Titans played well at CxG qualify in Greece. Also Team AMD Gamer said that they spent a lot of time to prepare. You can read also fresh interview with UK team.

 ocrana.D-Link vs Online

From match to match battles become stronger. Online is a team with very good lineup. Ocrana won WCG 2003 german qualify. As other german teams ocrana is well known as a good online team. So we can see another european derby.

 TSG vs EG

Last match of this wonderful 7. Teams from North America will fight face to face. But i think EG have more chances to win. We can remember canadian school of CS at de_dust2. But TSG playing at home, so we will see how this match will be finished.

Second round - Fast matches

 SK.swe vs [ Delusional vs Zero Respect ]
 Adren[GX] vs [ Gemini vs Wired Gaming ]
 Team 9 vs SYB.grid5
 Fyrezone vs 3D
 mibr vs PCL
 NoA vs [ euphNet vs Chi-Town Players ]

I think only blind can not see winner in these pairs. I think you understnad what i mean. Big names will pass this round easily. But we have not to forget that in this game men are playing, so i can be some surprises here. And we hope that this tournament will open new names, and performance of some teams will be called sensational. So spectate these matches it will give a lot of fun.
