Mana's successes in Europe continue. After two excellent DreamHack runs including a gold at DH Summer, the protoss flew to Paris to rob ESWC of its $20,000 first place prize.
Apart from the obvious, Mana's success meant yet another goldless finish for ForGG, for whom this is the third silver and fifth top four overall this year after never quite seizing the thrones of Assembly Summer, Campus Party, Nvidia HOTS Cup and DH Valencia. This is also the second year in a row in which ESWC ends up European dominion.
