Sunday, November 20 -- 18 GMT

Casted by Interjection and WickedCossack
As quickly as it started, the end has come. This weekend, the ESOC autumn championship comes to a close as the defending champion, @_H2O , takes on @lordraphael in a rematch of the 2016 Winter championship finals.

The path to finals has looked much different for the two players. In typical H2O fashion, we have seen a torrid race to the finals. Only WickedCossack and mongo10 have managed to take a single game from H2O along the way while naruto720, Jsimons1289 and Garja both went down without so much as landing a punch.

In contrast, the road to the finals for LordRaphael has been anything but smooth. After a 2-0 win in the round of 64 against bwinner, ageofkiller (aka Breeze) took Raphael down to the wire in a 3-2 nailbiter in the round of 32. The round of 16 didnā€™t seem much easier as Save_Your_Skill showed an impressive series against LordRaphael. While the final result was 3-1, it was very close and could have easily extended to the deciding fifth game if not for some heroic Dutch play from Raphael on Manhac where he lost his town center to an Ottoman Jan/Gren play. In the round of 8 against goongoon, it didn't get any easier as LordRaphael advanced in the elimination game 7 to take the series 4-3. However, it appears that Raphael might have righted the ship as he was able to dispatch IrishFaithful in the semi-finals in a dominating 4-1 final score.

Can Raphael ride the momentum from his semi-final performance and slay the beast? Or will we see H2O continue his dominance? Tune in this weekend on ESOCtv to find out.
In addition to the championship game, we will feature a show match between third place finisher mongo10 and fan favorite Aizamk. Because IrishFaithful chose not to play the third place match, mongo10 has secured the third place prize of 50$. The showmatch will take place on ESOCtv as a warm up to the finals.

Also this weekend on ESOCtv Interjection and Rikikipu will be making a map together. This should be a fun experience as the viewers can go behind the scenes to see what goes into the ESOC map making process and into the mind of Interjection.

Sorry but even WickedCossack's voice is no match for @Rikikipu 's lovely voice. The only one which comes close is maybe @Gichtenlord . If you guys ever have a hard time finding a girl you should come to America, if you can seduce even me the girls have no chance xD.

When will the mapmaking stream take place?

I think Interjection and WickedCossack will form an excellent casting-duo and I'd like to thank the media team for their excellent work. So many casted games!

If there are 3hunts+2mines it's fine.
Honestly a resource heavy map with a crazy amount of TPs would be op (hp has issues.)

It would be fun, to have a completely new map in the finals' mappool, and see how quickly the tops adapt. Maybe next tourney?

No, finals are casted by Interjection & WickedCossack and SoldieR as backup. For the showmatch Aiz vs Mongo at 15 GMT we have SirCallen and Chrisie10101.
