Na'Vi playing Pudge, for the first and only time in the tournament. They do this in the $1,000,000 match against EHOME. But did it work against the Chinese powerhouse?

EHOME really liked the combination of Nature's Prophet, Storm Spirit and a Doombringer. Once again they want Doombringer to become huge and manage to give him a rather fast Radiance. Is that enought to stop the Ukrainians push?

In this upset-causing game between the Chinese roster of OK.Nirvana and the Filipinos of Mineski, a beautiful demonstration of distracting the enemy while tearing down the barracks can be seen.

It's all about the early game pressure! Scythe.SG grabs a lead due to pressuring, did the team turn this lead into a success?

Linken's Sphere on a Morphling, hide if you can! This game about farming from the first minute on. Can Thailand keep up with China when it comes to carrying?

And this one is the best nail-biter! Who's gonna win? You'll never know, until the throne has fallen. MUFC and OK.Nirvana.int both didn't want to give up the knock-out game lightly.
