STX continue their ascend through the table as they 4-1 CJ Entus while Woongjin overcome SK Telecom in the battle at the top of the rankings.
Epic struggles opened STX Soul vs CJ Entus. Innovation came in first and as is his good tradition, played a stellar and majestic, 40-minute long TvZ in which bio/mine went against Effort's fungal/ultra composition to give STX the first win.
Two equally spectacular late game matches followed as hero[join] tied the score by beating Classic and Dear returned the lead back to STX as he crushed soO. The final two games turned out much shorter, though, and after an early ling play and a bunker rush, Hyvaa and Last coined the final 4-1.

Copying from the previous match, a grand ZvT between Zero and Fantasy gave start to Woongjin Stars vs SKT. Fantasy brought on a stellar performance and, like Innovation, deleted the Zerg on Floating Island with the power of marine/medivac/mine but this was one of the only two kills that SKT secured today.
After the initial loss, the Protoss line-up of Woongjin Stars collapsed onto SKT and sOs and Flying turned the score around into a 2-1 for Proleague's leaders, marking the end of powerful contenders like Rain and Soo. Brown was able to give SKT a room to breathe for just a while but his triumph over Free made no difference. Soulkey's ZvZ play and Last's mid-game bio timing attack with SCV support were too overwhelming and awarded Woongjin Stars yet another victory.
