Another great day at MLG Columbus has passed, brining an end to the pool play phase. The winners of each group will now be seeded directly to top 6, while the others will have to go through the championship brackets.

It would appear that Koreans are still very hard to defeat even when away from their homeland. MMA and Losira finished with a perfect 5-0 in their groups, dropping just one and two maps, respectively. MMA's final victory came in the match against July where the SlayerS terran bunker rushed on Xel'Naga Caverns and winning a hard macro game in the second set on Metalopolis. Losira, on the other hand, had an easier time against Major, banebusting twice to climb to the Pool D throne.

In Pool C, Thorzain managed to put an end to Idra's perfect score and defeated him twice in a row and securing a third place in the group for himself.

The final pool game for this night was between Fenix and Slush, as the Zerg was fighting for a chance to push Naniwa out of the top place in the group. Unfortunately, he fell down 1-2 to the Peruvian terran and thus finishes second in what ended up a very close group with four player having a 3-2 score.
