GosuGamers reported a couple of days ago about the » Gamingeye Ladder playoff where 16 players were qualified for a Double Elimination tour. We also went through the most expected players to win this; TreK[pG], rS.DaZe and iG.Mireille. The latter reached the Grand Final, where he was faced against ash.Fox in a nailbiter match where the Swede in the end won 3-2.
Fox (picture) started off by beating the Sweden B manager Ratan[pR] but the lost in the second round, beaten by uT)DeWa. He then forced his way through the Loser Bracket until he finally reached the Grand Final where the DreamHack Summer 2005 champion iG.Mireille was waiting. With a 1-0 lead for Mireille, Fox could still take home the win, and thereby won 500 SEK (~52€).
In an interview afterwards, where Fox explains how happy he is by wining, especially because of the prize money, he also says that it was an easy tournament. "Everybody I played was easy except for Mireille", he said, but then changes his mind and says that Chaso was also pretty tough.
GosuGamers wishes the StarCraft Gamingeye section the best of luck with their new section, and as the only Swedish-based ladder will flourish as it did once before.
