Despite a few bumps in the road, the fourth group has played. Everyone played well; but in the end it was the heavily favored Mondragon and the Russian player Advokate who claimed the final two spots of the tournament.

Advokate was originally scheduled for the third group that took place a couple of weeks ago. He was unable to make it then, but when we learned Notforu couldn't show, he was the first on our list. Also unable to make today's games was Micro Media's Ret, who was replaced with the up and coming Polish player Mana. Mana is relatively unknown, however, he was eager to play. The two replacements completed the groups and the games began.

This was a tough group for everyone, and only our two winners finished up with a winning record. The games were back and forth, and nobody really dominated like in some of the other groups. We got a chance to get a statement from Mondragon following the games.

Mondragon: "I'm not confident"


When asked why he isn't very confident, he says it's because he is "really playing sloppy lately and all my match ups are really bad". Maybe this is just Mondragon's way of being modest- he went 4-1 today, only losing to his former team mate iNcontrol in a PvZ.

Playoffs begin next week!


Next week the eight players will play in best of three series, single elimination bracket until we are left with the final two players. The finals will take place in two weeks. We are planning some things for the glorious conclusion to the tournament, so keep updated as we will release more and more info throughout the week. GosuGamers would like to thank DJZeus for his support with the shoutcast, the players for being well mannered, and the viewers for their support and insight. Replays are being collected and will be released shortly.
