We are now one step closer to see who is going to get the ticket in Korea to go to WCG in Seattle, USA. They have finished Round of 16 in Korea, and are now heading for round of 8.



Round of 16 iloveoov< Much
Hwasin> Nal_Ra
sAviOr> YellOw[ArnC]
Bisu< Light
JulyZerg> JaeDong
Stork> Anytime
Midas< Free
NaDa< Sea
When we look through the matches, we can see there were a split opinion in the predictions from the comments from last news of the first match between Much and iloveoov, but Much obviously succeeded and #1 WCG from last year are now out. The majority had predicted, that Nal_Ra would defeat Hwasin, but as it turns out Nal_Ra lost to Hwasin.

Unfortunately we were unlucky when looking among the Zergs, who only had mirror matches. Looking at the last matches we see that #2 Bisu and #3 Nada from KeSPA August are out, and only sAviOr remains. Stork who seems to be on a rage at the moment are still in, and have with the others who won, moved further to round of 8.

Round of 8
Much <> Hwasin
sAviOr <> Light
JulyZerg <> Stork
Free <> Sea
Round of 8 will be played 17th August at 5 am CET,* Free vs Sea will be played the 18th. You can see the matches at OGN either at YaoYuan or Sc2.org, if it is working properly.

Results: Round of 8
Much 0:2 Hwasin
sAviOr 2:1 Light
JulyZerg 1:2 Stork
Free 2:1 Sea

The maps they played last round will continue on Sin Peaks of BaekduTau CrossPython
