Today was jammed packed of games in the Korean leagues. MSL and Proleague were both played today and there were some really good games. Also there's a map pack of all the maps being used this season linked at the bottom of this news post.
Airforce ACE has not done too well so far this season, despite the fact that Boxer seems to be finding his form again. They are in fact the only team yet to secure a victory. CJ Entus has struggled in 1v1s but done very well in 2v2 and due to that find themselves in the middle of the table. eSTRO is, and I am tempted to say will always be, near the bottom. Their stats are almost as bad as ACE's but they have at least one win. Samsung Khan, who were the champions of season one this year are not doing too well either. They need to step it up a notch if they want to win this season as well.| eSTRO 2-3 CJ Entus | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

On to the MSL. The group stages are over and it's single elimination best of three time. The games are split up into two days each week, where half the players play one game of their best of three. Next week they will play the third game, if needed, on the same day though. The first game was InteR.Mind vs iloveoov. Mind is a very new Terran. He's had some Proleague games, but this is his first StarLeague. iloveoov is of course the veteran and has been on a very nice win streak lately. He's beaten keke, Reach, Bisu, fOru and NaDa twice in his last six televised games.
The next game was Free versus Lomo. Free has been around quite a while and has never really taken that last step into stardom. Lomo on the other hand is another one of the new Terran players of the season. Like Mind, he is going to have to prove he belongs in this company. Next we had Nal_rA versus fOrGG. fOrGG had a bit of a terrible streak at the end of the first season of ProLeague this year but seems to have gotten back into shape. rA hardly needs an introduction, but he's on a three game win streak, the same as fOrGG. It should be mentioned that neither had really top competition.The last game of the night was probably the one everyone was looking forward to. Hwasin versus Bisu. Both are doing well in ProLeague and they are both in EVER OSL as well as of course the MSL playoffs. Highlight of the day? No, that has to be the previous game between rA and fOrGG. Be sure to check out that VOD if you missed it. There's a SCV with 10 kills! TEN! And that's not the best part.
