Gametype: Search & Destroy
Well as always twitch.tv/ksilive is off to a rocky start with our normal connection issues. After our bumps in the road we got the games started. First game series of BO4 night was Search and Destroy. The Divisions that came out tonight showed up to play hard. Everyone had a different strategy, from “fast to plant the bomb” to a “low and slow approach” but at the end of they day they all came out to represent their Divisions.
All in all it was a long night a great game play. Last Strike started off with the first win of the night. They played well with great precision. Wicked Destruction came to play tonight. They walked in with some fast and crazy team work, and took some great wins before being knocked out.
There was awesome plays made by our KSI members. Demonic Mayhem had a nail biting last stand. With only 2 tenths of a second on the clock, they managed to deactivate the bomb for the win and continue on in the winners bracket. There were many more edge of your seat plays tonight within each match.
Sadly we were unable to watch the losers bracket but from what I can tell they weren’t taking no for an answer. The final match of the night came down to Wicked Destruction and Divine Warriors. WD, coming from the losers bracket, gave it their all. They managed to turn their losing ship around, reset the bracket, and took the overall win for Search and Destroy!

Gametype: 4v4 Domination
Domination was the name of the game. The stream issue Domination that is… In usual Spirit Week form and fashion, issues hit the games none stop. But the teams didn’t let that stop them! BO4 4v4 Hardcore Domination was a double elimination game.
The first line of matches for the evening weren’t able to be streamed, but it seems that the guys had one heck of a time playing!
Second Match of the night was DM vs ES, and man was it a rumble! The match was kept very close on scoring for the first half with ES in the lead. Second half was a different story as ES pulled away and gave DM their first match loss 200-123.
The third match of the night was DW vs ES. DW started off very smooth and solid, capping their points like a boss. After losing the water and window position on Contriband, DW started falling short giving ES an advantage. Taking the lead, ES never once looked back ending the match 200-119.
Top Three Lineup
The third place finale was DW vs DL on Payload. This was the losers bracket winners game. All I can say is DropShots back must have really hurt, running a KD of 45/17. From the beginning of the match, DL ran the table. Literally. Camping down mid point for spawns, DL straight said “YOU SHALL NOT PASSâ€! Giving DW 3rd place and advancing to the top 2 finalies, DL took the win 200 – 111.
The last match of the night was DL vs ES on Arsenal. This was for all of the colorful M&M cookies and massive bragging rights of BO4 HC Domination. From the beginning it looked like the teams were pretty even and going back and forth. But ES pulled away somehow managing to shutdown everything that DL did. Halfway through the score was 100 – 51 ES. Could DL pull back and win this to reset the winners bracket? It was too soon to tell. ES seemed to play teacher and have an answer for every question that DL tried to put out. Vent? Nope. Window? Nah brah. ES ended up dominating in Domination the whole time through beating DL and taking first place 200 – 104.

Gametype: Knives Only
DM ES seemed to go the hardest with knives and were basically head and head as all of their members went to the final lobby. Tomahawks seemed to be the player favorite as they were destroying each other’s skulls with them, some of the players ( like uppish, shadowo45, Headshot RR, and fast McGee) were all getting triple kills back to back. What seemed to be the highlight of the evening though was when “The Mighty has fallen”. KSI Soap 7, who had proclaimed himself the God of Melee with his hammer on twitter all week, was swiftly eliminated in first round of the Finals lobby.
Winners
First Place – Demonic Mayhem
- KSI UppishB592
Second Place – Dark Legions
- KSI Shadowo45
Third Place – Divine Warriors
- KSI Headshot RR
Even though Knives Only wasn’t streamed, it seemed like all of the members had a stabbingly good time! Thank you to all of the members who showed to play, and congratulations to all of our winners!
