HeRoMaRinE and ShoWTimE tops EPS groups

Is there a correlation between skill and mixing lower to upper case in the nickname for German players? Regardless, HeRoMaRinE and ShoWTimE moves on to the EPS playoffs alongside Socke and HasuObs.

The groups of ESL Premier Series Germany 2013 are finished and playoffs will be next thing to follow. The four Germans taking part of the final stage are HeRoMaRinE, ShoWTimE, Socke and HasuObs, which also were the four players to top the rankings chart after the initial stage of five cups.

No real upset occurred during the groups other than possibly where Socke got overthrown by HeRoMaRinE in his group. Socke was ranked number one after the cup stage, but despite losing the winners' match he still makes it to the playoff where he will face off with ShoWTimE. Worth to note is that all Zerg players have been eliminated and only one Terran play is left in the competition. It remains to be seen if the MaRinE indeed ends up the HeRo or if it will be a Protoss reign this time around.
