When most teams wrapped up their season in ESEA 4 weeks ago, mLine has continued thru playoffs into round 7 only 3 rounds away from winning it all. The previous four matchups the guys have faced, they were not only predicted to lose but by a large margin. Not paying attention to all the hype the guys stepped into their own and continued to overcome the betting odds dominating their matches thus far.

But as I always say, you can't win em all. June 27th, mLine.css, took on Pick Up The Pieces the team that is widely looked at to win it all. From the get go, we took the lead with a strong 5-0 start proving we weren't going to be intimidated by anyone. After PuP_- battling back they managed to take the first half 9-6 in favor of PuP.

Spirit not broken, the guys reeled back clawing their way to a 15-14 one round away from sending the match into overtime. Something mLine is no stranger too. The 30th and final round in regulation play started out with Pup taking out Hurm, but Downy traded the kill off with a timed bait. As Gray, Surpaz, Downy and Lzr entered the site to plant PhillipS drops both Gray and Suhpaz with a m4 spray, Downy followed up with 2 deagle shots taking him out, and Lzr with the backup plants FarshaD with an awp shot leaving Downy open to get the bomb down. Blindrichard, and C15-UM rotated over in a 2v2 situation with bomb down, took an aggressive approach coming in guns blazing first taking out Lzr with an awp, followed up by C15-UM deagle shot on Downy.

C15-UM defused the bomb wrapping up a adrenaline pumping match 16-14 in favor of PuP knocking mLine to the Lower Bracket semi-finals just 4 matches away from taking it all. Our next opponent has yet to be listed, however no matter who Grayhat, and the rest of the guys are ready, willing, and able to come back strong.

The next match is set to take place around July 4th, 2010 at 9pm CST however, if any scheduling changes take place we'll be sure to keep you informed. Stay tuned to mL-Gaming your gaming resource for all things above the line!
