AIGL - Quake 3 clan final

The Quake 3 clan competition at the "NYC Challenge" in Time Square just finished, with a three map match with an exciting climax. Stickmen won the first game on DM6 by just 144 : 139, only for cK to come back and take the second game 114 : 106 on DM7. The decider was a real nail-biter from start to finish on DM14, with cK pulling out a strong lead at the start, only for the Stickmen to close right up and equalise with just three minutes to go! The game stayed neck and neck until the final minute, when Fatality got the quad for cK and Stickmen's Larsen leaped into the red mist. By the end cK had managed to amass a ten frag lead. A thrilling end to a close match - cK take home $8000!
