At last the GGNT has finished, with Poland taking the gold, defeating the ambitious Ukraine in the grand final. Poland once again proved it's dominance in the non-korean scene.
After some delays because of Dreamhack and Holidays, the GGNT final was played which featured Ukraine against Poland in what would be a star studded match. However, when all was said and done, Poland proved too tough for Ukraine, taking home a 4-1 victory.
When asked about their chances of winning prior to the match, KubciO, team Poland's new captain said: "I believe in "my boys", and hope we'll manage to win that match. Poland is a nation that has won almost every nation team event that has been run and has a very experienced and seasoned lineup, which was made very clear when he stated I can only try to mobilize my players, however I think that's needless, because, they in front of such challenge feeling the pressure, know exactly what to do."
Ukraine was able to muster up a fight, but without one half of their Monster Duo, they weren't able to take the victory. Poland won three of the 1v1 matches, with Strelok taking the only victory for Ukraine, defeating Paranoid. Gohan, MiSTRZZZ, Yayba, and the deadly Polish 2on2 were able to secure the victory for their country, concluding a fairly successful tournament.

Once again, congragulations to KubciO and team Poland for another Tournament victory, and to Ukraine for taking the 2nd place. Thanks to all teams who participated in this event, and we will surely host more Nation Tournaments such as this, hopefully with less offline LAN and Holiday related delays.
