Tonight we will see Qpad.ZpuX versus aAa.Strelok. The Swedish Protoss is taking on the Ukrainian Terran in a match played in best out of five games. As usual all games must be played, how do you think it will end up? Tonight at 19:00 CET we will all know.
ZpuX tells GosuGamers that last time they played was over a year ago in the AmeriCup 2 group stage. With the game ending up in a two to none loss he said that he got disappointed because he thought he had a chance. This time he's hoping for a closer match.
- If I'm lucky I will be able to get a game or two, but I am not really known to perform 100% when I'm under pressure. I will do my best and hopefully it will be an even match, he says.
ZpuX says that Strelok is a good Terran player but that the match up might help him a lot. Protoss versus Terran has always been his best match up. Strelok the other hand is not as sure about his own performance this time.
- I'm very unstable versus Protoss in clan wars and showmatches so I really can't predict it.

Rush HourThe maps are good says both players, even if ZpuX seems to like them more than Strelok, saying they are good for Protoss and that he hopes to make it to the late game where he has a bigger chance to win. Strelok does not agree and tells us that they are all basic maps, all except two are not really that good or bad for any race.
- 815 is Protoss autowin same as R-Point gives some advantage to Terran, the others are normal, says Strelok.
When asked to give us a possible score for the match Strelok just tells us that his showgames always end up in a 3-2 score and that he hopes that he will be the one with getting the third win this time. ZpuX is a little bit more confident about the score though, answering:
- 5-0 for me, he says and smiles.
Pro Gaming 24 also hosts video casts from the matches, in three different qualities. Sadly the casts are in Czech but at least the rest of us can watch the games live.
It did not end up in a five to none win for ZpuX, but neither did it end up in a three to two win as Strelok predicted. The Ukrainian won with four games to one. Replays can be found in the links below.
