GROUP STAGE: HayprO, PhoeNix, Adelscott exit DreamHack early

The first half of the DreamHACK AMD Sapphire championship group stage has concluded, and we see the former DreamHack StarCraft: Brood War champion HayprO crashing out early. Bischu, PhoeNix and Adelscott are other notable players who will not be making it to the next round.

Group A saw home turf player ThorZaIN advance together wtih his Terran buddy SeleCT. This on the expense of the Russian former WarCraft 3 professional Abver and Swedish greenhorn Kaeru.

Group B ended as expected with PuMa and NightEnD advancing without much trouble. DreamHack Summer 2011 group stage wonder, Israeli Osho, who defeated both Elfittaja and Jinro back in June, was not able to pull through this time either.

And while last winter's silver medalist MaNa passed through with ease in Group C, neither GoOdY nor RunA were able to clinch the last spot. It instead went to the Belgian player Orly, the Zerg player who made a name of himself back in the StarCraft 2 beta.

Group D and E witnessed few upsets, with White-Ra, ClouD, Stephano and SjoW advancing through to tomorrow's group stage. There they might be paired with the Swedish sensations SaSe and meRz from Group H as well as Nerchio and DreamHack Winter 2010 champion Naama from Group G.

The tournament continues right off with groups I to P, where top dogs as IdrA, HuK, HerO and ret will make their DreamHack Winter 2011 debut.
