The two time WCG champion Sky once again showed his great expertise when it comes to competing offline. That, together with a some luck, granted him the victory in the Grand Final versus his teammate Infi.
In an intense and nail-bitingly close final of Neo Star League's second edition, the two countrymen and fellow Human players Infi and Sky battled it for the top prize consisting of €4,500. Although Sky took an early 2-0 lead in the best-of-5 series, where Infi tried to surprise the Human emperor by picking Undead and Night Elf as his races, the series was tied at 2-2 when Infi switched back to his main race. The deciding game was played on Terenas Stand and, with a somewhat lucky Lightning Shield item drop for Sky, the Chinese posterboy was able to end the game in just under 7 minutes.

Earlier on in the tournament, the runner-up Wang "Infi" Xuwen boasted his striking skill by defeating both the previous champion, Moon, and Lyn. Sky, who just recently turned 23 years old, had to be revived before also overcoming Lyn as well as beating his final opponent Infi, ReMinD and more earlier on. His victory in this sets another fine accomplishment in his extensive list of achievements.
