NHLGamers, Tonight we'll be broadcasting some prime ECL 9 Elite action as the well known rivalry between HAVU Gaming and Butterfly Effect returns for the decisive games of their semifinal series. So far, four games have been played in this best of seven series and wins are split at two each. Let's remember that these teams have met at some point of the playoffs in a vast majority of tournaments they have ever participated in simultaneously, which surely brings heat to the matchup in itself. So far, HAVU has been a dominant force winning all of the played series between these two teams (despite regular season matches), but as we remember, IS Cup 4 was a close one. That series was one for the ages, so our hopes are high for the remaining games of this one too. To recap what we've seen in games 1-4, we could state that close doesn't quite cut it when it comes to these two. As stated, we're now even at 2-2 where the two teams have traded wins on two separate game nights. In game 1, Butterfly Effect scored early and managed to stay in the drivers seat for a majority of the game, before @Buantso showed his offensive prowess, netting two goals in quick succession and sending his team to a victory to start off the series. The second game was a HAVU nightmare. A seemingly tight battle just didn't go their way at all, as Butterfly Effect once again took the lead but this time didn't let up, outscoring the reigning champions 5-1. The series is tied. Games 3 & 4 followed a similar pattern to the first two. HAVU won game 3 in a game that Butterfly Effect made especially difficult for themselves bu taking two penalties really early on. 2-0 HAVU puts them ahead in the series only to see Butterfly Effect come back in the fourth game. In tonights broadcast, we'll have you favourite dynamic duo Arttu @OLVARI Hämäläinen and Joonas @SUPERVIRTA Virta back in the booth. Tune in at 21:00 CET over at www.twitch.tv/nhlgamer for all the action.
