Kickoff tour #4, a2 wins

[s]gg_tour[/s]

The fourth and final kickoff tour was played last night. It went off without problems for the most part and it's now clear who will play the final tournament, except the invited players.



This tour has a little less participating players than the other 3, probably due to the short notice. However, there were some good games, and in the end 3 strong qualifiers. The date for the final tour has not been revealed yet, but will be published shortly along with the names of the 4 invited players. This final however came down to two terran players. One was not surprisingly the strong ToT member, Sweden ToT)DaZe(. His opponent was not someone we had predicted would reach the final however. A russian terran player called giBBonroLLing. After some detective work by GosuGamer's own PI, Artanis, we discovered it was non other than Russia mYm.Advokate


Russia mYm.Advokate 3:1 Sweden ToT)DaZe(
mYm.Advokate > ToT)DaZe( Ride of Valkyries
mYm.Advokate > ToT)DaZe( Enmity
mYm.Advokate < ToT)DaZe( Azalea
mYm.Advokate > ToT)DaZe( Luna


The replays are worth checking out, excellent play by both gamers. Arbiters in both protoss games, and very solid TvT. Now the players that lost to Advokate and DaZe in the semi-final had to, as usual in this series, play a match to determine who was the last qualifier for the final tour. These two players were; Romania Rektile[SoD] and Ukraine uG-ALF-vc. Both are relatively unknown, but ALF has previously won the GGnet and BWM.net MOTW tournament #6.


Ukraine uG-ALF-vc 2:0 Romania Rektile[SoD]
uG-ALF-vc > Rektile[SoD] Ride of Valkyries
uG-ALF-vc > Rektile[SoD] 815


That makes the top 3, and the qualifiers for the final tour, these players: Russia mYm.Advokate, Sweden ToT)DaZe( and Ukraine uG-ALF-vc. These player will fight in the final tour for the prize. That prize is a Razer Copperhead mouse. With this tournament, all the public tournaments in this series are concluded. We had almost 400 participants and I would like to thank everyone, on behalf of GosuGamers and the event team for helping to make this a success so far.
