At 1-5 before yesterday's match, MVP had no chances to make playoffs whatsoever and all they could do is trip Samsung. Putting out an all-Zerg line-up, Samsung marched in with their heavy guns in Shine, Roro and Solar and also tested the B-teamer Armani to walk out with a 3-1 victory and take the temporary fourth position in the Proleague rankings. Their next match aginst ranking runner-ups SK Telecom (as well as IM's game against JinAir) will decide whether or not Samsung will be in the playoffs.
