[s]event_326[/s]

The first PGL Starcraft Open tournament is near to its end ; and we now know the top5 of this tournament which brought us some very exciting battles between the best Korean non-Korean Asian players.

The PGL Peugeot Starcraft Open tournament was divided into five stages. After the first three ones, only nine players remained, before the fifth stage where only five players had to battle it out to get the title via a "Survivor" mode. Thus, after many games and several days of competition, we knew who would end in the tournament top five:

PGL Stage 4 rankings
Rank	Player	Win/Loss	Pts	Qualify
#1	STX_Thestc	6-2	17
#2	ToT)SEn(	6-2	17
#3	Ehome.Super	5-3	15
#4	Sparkyz_flOwer	5-3	14
#5	Tosslife[fou]	5-3	13
#6	Sz.1	4-4	10
#7	Legionnaire	3-5	7
#8	SoZ.Phoenix66	1-7	2
#9	Regog.kcg	1-7	1

After a great tournament, Peter the great, aka Legionnaire did not qualify to the last stage. Congratulations to him for his very good results after a bad WCG trip, and also to all the other players who did not reach the fifth stage either.

Let's get the party started

Now is the time to start the fifth and last stage. This one will use the PLU and FBL format for the last part of the tournament, which means that the player ranked #5 will face the one ranked #4, then the winner will face #3, etc. Two of those matches have been played, see the results below.

ToT)SEn( getting interviewed

For this tournament held in China, six non-Chinese players have been invited: four Korean pros or semi-pros, the Australian legend Legionnaire and the famous Taiwanese player ToT)SEn(, here on the picture getting interviewed by a PGL official. Along with the Chinese players, SEn and Legionnaire have appeared very strong against four rising Korean stars, like Tosslife[fou] who has already won a Courage tournament. Of course Korea do not need to prove that foreign Starcraft gamers can not compete with its best ones, but it is still good to see some players like SEn, Legionnaire or Super offering us some very nice victories about those fou Korean dudes.
