fl0m and friends survive pronax but fall to izak

The lone North American hope in Stockholm has bowed out of the competition.

Eric "fl0m" Flom and his ASUS ROG Join the Republic squad have been eliminated from the event, after a loss to Piotr "izak" Skowyrski's side in the Group B decider match.

To get there, the North Americans first had to go through Markus "pronax" Wallsten and his fellow Swedes. In one of the closer matches of the event thus far, fl0m and his team took the former Major champion the full three map distance. At the end of the day, however, Adam "WolfY" Andersson helped to take down his (other) countrymen, and keep ROG fl0m alive.

After ROG izak lost to ROG HOUNGOUNGAGNE winners' match, ROG fl0m's opponents were set. Things did not go the way of the North Americans, with the Polish side decimating them on Train to the tune of 16-3.

Inferno also got off on the wrong foot for ROG fl0m, with them only managing three rounds on their Terrorist side. The switch to CT seemingly woke them up, as Justin "jerk" Milani pitched in to help fl0m try to bring the back, but it was too little too late, as the Poles held on for a narrow 16-14 victory.

fl0m and his teammates will now return to their various homes (though WolfY won't have to go very far), where they will await the start of the new ESEA Intermediate, Advanced, and MDL seasons.

WolfY has dual citizenship. I'm unsure how people get selected, I only know that retrQ made it from the qualifier

WhiteBlood, as far as we know, had a family emergency and had to go to China. WolfY was available, as he does have dual citizenship, and had played last season’s challenge.
