ImageWith the playoffs brackets now known we will see a clash of the titans as Dutch Orc player Manuel "Grubby" Schenkhuizen will face Chinese WCG champion Xiaofeng "Sky" Li.



Grubby finished 2nd in his group, losing to Lyn but also had a bumpy start against Iranian player Shahriar 'Demigod' Shaki losing the first game but then making it up for it in the following two.

Three players came out of their groups unscatched, Mykhaylo 'HoT' Novopashyn, Xiaofeng 'Sky' Li and June 'Lyn' Park, winning all four of their group matches. The roster for the playoffs is an extremely strong one with four of the six South Koreans at the event qualifying, they are all however, in the lower part of the bracket.

HoT who played a very convincing group stage now faces ToD who he has an impressive record against, most recently at the SEC which he ended up winning.

All the playoff matches will be played later today with only the Lower and Winner Bracket finals being played tommorrow.
