So far, the favourites in this first qualifier round have been successful, no big suprises came along. Sure, the most interesting matches won't be played in this first round, but the second one will be more interesting and the final round will be exciting for sure.

The players that advanced to the second qualifier round are corugnoll, NightWOlf, DeMusliM, Lose and FuRy. They were all able to beat their opponents, but unfortunately two of the matches have been overshadowed by forfeits: While corugnoll defeated CaMeliriS by a default win, NightWOlf only played the first map against Rabbit - who forfeited the rest of the match after losing it. DeMusliM was able to clearly beat his opponent PiNoi from Switzerland with 3-0 and so did Lose against Infantrist. The only result that could be seen as little suprising was FuRy only winning 3-2 against Geno.

As you can see, five out of twelve matches have been played so far, meaning seven games being left. The most interesting ones might be Zeus19 against TargA, Rob facing Vankor and elfittaja vs. NightEnD, although elfittaja, Rob and ZeuS should be the favourites.
