SK Gaming triumph over archrivals Meet Your Makers puts them right back on track with an impressive 2-1 victory for Seong Deuk "Soju" Lee versus MYM's Jang Jae "Moon" Ho.The line-ups predicted a close war with June 'Lyn' Park vs Jung Ki 'Susiria' Oh meanwhile Seo Woo 'ReiGn' Kang faced Deok Man 'SocceR' Youn. It was MYM's latest addition Deok Man 'SocceR' Youn who brought them their point with a strong performance against Seo Woo 'ReiGn' Kang with a particularly exciting first game on Terenas Stand.
We caught up with Sung Sik 'ReMinD' Kim to talk a bit about his games versus Manuel 'Grubby' Schenkhuizen below.

Game 1 - SK.ReminD vs MYM.Grubby on Lost Temple
One grunt a huge loss? "Yea, it is 200 gold and if Orc has to make 1 more grunt they get a late tech, which means they build lodge or other buildings a bit later" explained Remind, "now I'm playing orc for so many games I understand orc's point of view very well".
Game 2 - SK.ReminD vs MYM.Grubby on Gnoll Wood
Game 2 was a close-spawn on Gnoll Wood with both going for some early creeping, ReminD soon ran into trouble when he went to hit Grubby's base despite killing his lodge. "I don't even understand how I won this game," said ReminD, "after losing all of my bears and heroes. It was a big big comeback".
"I think the big point was I destroyed his lodge so he did not get many walkers," explained ReminD, "so I could make a comeback I think".
Favourite micro moment?
So did ReminD pull off any moves in the series that he was particularly proud of? "On Lost Temple I used the wand of the wind 3times on one kodo not to let him eat my bear, it was pretty cool I thought," said ReminD.

"Remind: Now I'm playing Orc for so many games I understand Orc's point of view very well"
So how did Remind feel his games went? "First game on Lost Temple I had an okay position to play but I let him creep a spot because I went to shop to buy stuff" says Remind, "I kept harassing him and fortunately killing a grunt (I think this was a big loss for Grubby). I went mass bear without making any dryad and with my 2nd hero kotg I crept jack the healing fountain and got those great items"One grunt a huge loss? "Yea, it is 200 gold and if Orc has to make 1 more grunt they get a late tech, which means they build lodge or other buildings a bit later" explained Remind, "now I'm playing orc for so many games I understand orc's point of view very well".

.. while at the same time slandering all competition in their way.
Where is TheSlash and bds in all of this to restrain their henchmen? Is that G7 membership just for show?
MYM has a rumor central that strives to be first with a news that is bound to happen - As good as every rumor they post turns out to be true. That some of the players or teams in these rumor-news are in an awkward predicament has nothing to do with the factuality of the news. Some teams and players simply mistakes these rumors as a way for MYM to maliciously get to them.
What SK does is downright slandering albeit disguised in witty pictures, deceiving titles and misleading "articles".
NOT
And what comes to this article it was just a joke, it wasn't ment to slander or put anyone down (Remind was presented in same kind of means as ToaD) just like say political satire isn't supposed to do that. It isn't about laughing to them, it's about getting a laugh out of them. SK is just a bit more relaxed and chilled, not having as strict banning/post deleting guidlines etc.
comment posted when partner2 got +2 thumbs.
The mistake was infact the interview prior to NGL, Toad is just a passionate fan but the interview drew needless attention or perhaps too closely highlighted his extreme "fanboyism".
Toad will obviously attract haters, sometimes he perhaps deserves some of the flames but other times he is just a victim. He is a very emotional guy, so as with bullies in real life he is easy to get wound up which makes him an easy target for bullies.
If people got offended I apologise but sometimes you have to laugh at things like this. Perhaps it just drew even more unneeded attention towards him but this will die down like every other ridiculous trend "n1 madfrog"etc..
This was not done in a vindictive way, I've always been friendly to Toad, but he does do some silly stuff :) At least this way people are discussing the issue =]
I don't blame you, It's not an easy task to keep being impartial.
all hypocrites! :]
there is nothing illegal about it, and toad obviously deserves the bullying.
he was an attention whore, who intentionally wanted 'publicity' calling himself the biggest fang, arranging interviews, whatsoever. so its the logical step for the 'press' to make fun of this own-free-will-public person, if he goofs-up. and Toad seriously screwed it up.
so get the flame-campaign back on, this is what we want and this is what toad deserves.
(ps: maly, if you do more articles of this kind, i will consider you equal to evan)
- Grubby was not very intelligent, if he had attacked when ReminD lost both heroes the game would have been over.
- Grubby did not have dispell, so in the final battle he had his kodos entangled and had to fight against t3 bears + roar + rejuvenation, which is unbeatable by orc ground units if u dont have dispell.
