The end of the ESEA Season 3 league stage is finally here.

Unfortunately for you guys, with Menion still seemingly MIA, it's apparently down to me to bring you the remaining fixtures and standings from the final week of ESEA.

As always seems to be the case with ESEA the majority of this weeks games were either defaults or have been re-scheduled and are still yet be played. However, I'm far from complaining as out of the fixtures that were played my personal pick of the weeks games was the re-scheduled week 7.2 game between diamondZ and AfterTrouble not listed in the fixtures below. Janre "wfl" Saat proved he really is a forced to be reckoned with dropping 32 frags and averaging over 1.1 frags per round which is a phenomenal achievement at such a high level. His performance and in particular his ability to come out on top in crucial 1v1s was to be the deciding factor in AfterTrouble coming out on top 16-12.

AfterTrouble were definitely the team to watch all week as a matter of fact. Not even 21 frags a piece from both orga and inCre could prevent league leaders ROCCAT from being overturned by them 16-9 on train with AfterTrouble managing 8 rounds as T and turning both sites into almost impenetrable fortresses CT side.

The all Danish encounter between MoD and ROCCAT so many had big expectations from turned out to be somewhat of a disappointment with ROCCAT running riot and coming away with a comfortable victory. Special mention must go to Morten "frozt" Frost who fragged consistently throughout and looked impeccable in 1v1 situations.

If we take a look at the individual standings, Janre "wfl" Saat from AfterTrouble retakes his spot as the top fragger aided by an outstanding performance against top of the table ROCCAT in which he picked up no fewer than 25 frags . This brought his season total to 385 frags, 41 frags clear of 2nd highest fragger and fellow AfterTrouble team mate Vaino "SeRuMM" Korkka.

Ladislav "GuardiaN" Kovacs still remains the player with the highest FPR (average Frags Per Round) with an average of 0.993, significantly higher than Maximilian "m4xASSI" Barnewitz (0.912FPR) in second and Vincent "EMSTQD" Cervoni (0.905FPR) who are the only others who creep over the 0.9FPR boundary.
