x6 is still undefeated in Anaheim, despite the finest efforts of SK EU.SK Gaming EUROPE will feel disappionted after narrowly losing 2-3 against the beastcleave of CheckSix . The series was typical of the beastcleave setup, with only one game lasting over a minute - a game which went the way of the Europeans.
It started perfectly for SK, as they took the lead on Blade's Edge Arena. Some nice kiting from Patrick 'Inflame' Costales meant that he survived long enough for his team to score a kill onto x6's hunter before Michael 'Toez' Edwards even had time to bubble. But game two was an example of how ridiculous beastcleave can be. Inflame simply got blown up, in the words of the commentators, "as if it were nothing."
Game three went on a little longer, but it was the same story again, with x6's uncontrollable damage proving to be the only difference between the teams. SK pulled things back on Nagrand in game four, thanks to some poor play by x6. Un-lusted Spirit Wolves and a complete lack of coordination gave SK the chance to run Toez out of mana, and that tied things up at 2-2.
Just when you need a bit of luck, though, SK didn't get it, as Dalaran popped up for game five. It was over in a flash, with Inflame being trained from start to seemingly instantaneous finish.
The result puts x6 top of the table with a massive +12 round difference. They are almost guaranteed to qualify, while SK will probably need to win their last three games to make it to Sunday.

its so painful to watch Check6 win while they play so bad, if this is how blizzard want this game to be then wow as an esport will be dead very soon.
Wow is a game where the skill should be finesse and outsmart your opponent, you should not be able to stick to one target and click 2 buttons and expect to win.
And yes i know that wow is a fucking joke as a esport game but its just out of hands atm.
This is about Check6 playing like shit and still winning, you should just give up because you are proving with every post that you dont have a clue what you are talking about.
Without them, how would we know what stupid people act/look like?
Yes, the damage is stupid. But RMP s1-2 and WLD S3-4 was equally stupid.
That was the time where rogues could do nothing but complain. Didn't see a single RMP in those seasons. Maybe it was just my realmpool, but that setup became really popular in s3 with the bunch of rogue buffs.
i mean come on, they even killed an DK like that, how is a clothie supposed to live through this? Only blades edge is managable, and even there, the chance to get gibbed is so extremely high. for me this has nothing to do with skill, its plain stupid. Did any of you here the strat from check6? Its fairly simple, "KILL HIM KILL HIM" THATS what i call skill ...
i never play wow, what is RMP/Beastcleave/Shadowcleave and blahblah?
Beastcleave = Enhancement Shaman, BM Hunter and a Holy Paladin(in some cases a Discipline Priest).
Shadowcleave = Death Knight, Affliction Warlock, Druid
Oh wait, they don't o_O
x6 have the best comp and know how to win with it, isn't this the entire point of WOW? to win? or maybe we can get them to use 3 dps for some fun and then lose 6 games in a row? nah. What do you whiners want? do you forget when WLD was always used and won more often than not, and the fact it was a boring as fuck comp?
What is so skilled about SK's comp? get over it noobs.
If beastcleave is so ridiculous, why is noone else using it?
How is that different?
Wait it's a SK-team.
big sigh.
They (c6) hold the top3 stops worldwide in 3s, they are skilled players, all of them. Bashing them because of setup WAS weak, but now that everyone knows what they are running, even weaker.
