It appears that KT Rolster have no intention of slowing down and they trample yet another team with a flawless 4-0 to hold their leadership position.



This time, it was Wooki who led the charge and not Flash but the end result was very much the same as two days ago: the force that was KT Rolster could not be stopped or even abated. One by one, Dear, Bogus, Mini and Hyvaa fell to the protoss. That puts Wooki at a personal 8-1 score (or approx. 89% win rate) in the Proleague and climbs up to distort the SKT-occupied top of the rankings.

After suffering an embarrassing 0-4 loss last week, fans of EG-TL were worried that another defeat can be dealt by SK Telecom today, especially when Boxer's team led in with Fantasy (currently one of the best performing players in the Proleague).

What surprised, however, was how JYP's dealt with the SKT threat. Known for him subpar PvT and still untested in the match-up in the Proleague, JYP held his ground strongly and eliminated not only Fantasy but also Ssak to give EG-TL an early lead. It was not until soO stepped in the booth that the Korean team was able to re-balance the scales but neither he, nor SKT ace Rain were able to go past EG-TL's final player, Evil Geniuses' newest recruit Revival. EG's zerg performed magnificently, completely outplaying soO and defended adequately against Rain's constant Stalker aggression to finalize a 4-2 win.

With the first week of all-kill matches now over, KT Rolster towers above the other seven teams, boasting a gigantic lead. With two 4-0 wins on their account, the winners of the first round are at +21 points, leaving the second in the overall ranking Woongjin Stars nine points behind. Third are SK Telecom T1 with +7, followed by CJ Entus at -1. Just a smidgen below the top four frontier are EG-TL, who are tied with CJ Entus with points but lag behind due to fewer wins.
