SearchESWC Groupstage 2 suspense unfolds
Posted by Ghassen "MaelStroM" Soussi 1 year ago
With Green Skins galore filling the first group, the odds were against the Swede to grab a place to the playoffs. Yet, the latter surprisingly managed to take down both Grubby and FoCuS, two high-caliber opponents thus earning honorably the second place in the group behind Lyn. The Dutch Orc from Evil Geniuses grabbed the fourth place sorely to grant himself a ticket to the next round, discarding LucifroN from the competition.
The second group knew a more conventional outcome as the Korean prodigy Moon as well as the Russian star Happy monopolized success to top the rankings with only one loss. The well-attested Mojawi Night Elf could have been on par with them if only he could overcome nicker, the second Russian player in the event to whom he lost by 2-1.
With four players proceeding from each group, the next stage of the competition will be a Ro8. Four Koreans and four Europeans will battle in the upper bracket to make their way towards the next round. The Dutch star player Grubby takes on the almighty Moon tomorrow at 10:00 CET forecasting an epic clash between the two eternal rivals.

| damn thorzain looks sexy in that picture. i really wanna fuck him! |
| its always orc/elves for korean team while 1 for each race for europe team |
| Thorzain really puts the ZANE in INZANE cuz he really played INSANELY good at this tournament. Keep it up my Swedish Brotha! |
| #2 not...Majestic is human player not elf,fix it!! and GOOG EU! :D |
| I really hope ThorZaIN gets it, he deserves |
"Upsets"? He's the new ToD, cheer for him!  |
hehe Moon vs. Grubby epic  |
| Men this ESWC 2010 Jhas ust killed me... A lot of suprises from players =O... Even european players have beat Asian players in a funny shape =D...wtf.. |
I think thorzain vs remind will depend on map .... remind always comes with surpises and has always been perfomin good no matter what .. when thorzain is something completly out of the box....  |
| remind will rape Thorzain NE vs HM is unbalanced matchup like OCvsUD |
| Upper Bracket Matches = South Korea < Europe |
| Lucifron out? :( |
| MOON VS GRUBBY <3 |
| Poor Happy... vs greenskinned again TT |
| Poor Luci ;(, on this pic Thor looks a bit nerdy :P |
Moon 4 life  |
| #15 Sweden gave birth to many nerds. Now we got one that doesn't look like a surfer boy but like a nerd... leave him alooooone! |
| thorzain is the master.. but he shouldnt relax because i think he will be raped by Moon |
| Thorzain did superb coming where he ended up. But his worst match up has always been vs Nelfs and Remind is just a superb Hu-killer. So it was doomed to end right there. |
| He looks imba in that pic :) I was HU when playing WCIII , I miss it . I hope Thorzain or Grubby win this |
| lol awesome picture he looks like darth vader |
| More like his nerdy kid ^^ |
| vortix lucifron aca and demigod :(((( |
| #24 It's alive. But one needs to pay attention to the games to notice that. |
| Alive? when a guy like thorzain beats grubby in ESWC its not alive, the game is dead. time to move on! |
| #25 I advice you to ignore him. He's an obvious troll |
| #24 The existence of the WC3 competitive scene has nothing linked to one's ignorance. #16 YEAH MOON FOR LIFE! If not, Lyn would probably take it! KOREAN PROGAMING HWAITING!!! |
| #26 Then wtf are you doing in a WC3 thread? Please move yourself on. |
| #26, leave |
| I hope happy will win this. I feel he desserves it, somehow. |
| #31 happy is already at 4th place |
| Go Thorzain! FUCK YEAH!!!!! |
