The finals in BW4EVER Kerrigan Cup started this Wednesday. The players qualified by winning the tournaments throughout the season, which guarantees top players. Today is the third day of the finals, and we're expecting some great games!
QUALIFIED FROM 12 DIFFERENT TOURNAMENTS, the players were divided into four groups á 3. Every player in the group faces eachother in a best of three formatted match, and the winner of the group advances to the semi-final. By winning a group match with the score 2-0, the victor gets awarded 3 points, a 2-1 victory gives 2 points.
AS OF RIGHT NOW, THREE OF THE FOUR GERMANS are topping their groups - SoL.ScHnibL0r, BrEaKdOwN[pG] and poxxeLo[pG], and it will be tough for the others in the group to succed in advancing. The only player who's got a chance in advancing is Zerg[S2] after beating poxxelo[pG] last Thursday. He is today playing Playjin (AKA SoL.Selector), in a very important match.
