The online phase of EPS Germany Winter 2012 has come to an end, with the tournament now moving on to the playoffs.

The league was initially supposed to have 11 rounds of fixtures, but the disqualification of logiX and the shock dropout of mTw made the competition end earlier than planned.

mousesports, who were previously known as Team xXx, came out on top of the regular season, with 23 points from nine matches, three points clear of the second-placed team, GAMED.DE.

These two teams have been guaranteed direct entry into the EPS finals, which will most likely take place during the second week of December at a location that has not yet been announced by the ESL.
