cadiaN will be playing for TSM instead of device. Will be awkward if they somehow won.

Pretty decent lineup of teams even without the Swedes. Should be a fun tournament.

Group A is ridiculously stacked. That's pretty much the #2, #3, #4 and #6 teams of the tournament in the same group.

Meanwhile you have the #1, #5, #7 and #8 teams in Group B (I rank VP, TSM and Na`Vi ahead of Titan and the current Dignitas above CPH and 3DMAX). TSM playing with a sub though so it probably drops them to Titan's level.

I would rank 3dmax above Dignitas actually.

Absolutely not. Given recent results, Dignitas all day over 3DMAX.

Dignitas has been doing extremely well since they replaced FeTiSh against teams outside the top 7 (Fnatic, nV, NiP, VP, TSM, Na`Vi, Titan) while 3DMAX is still floundering against FlipSid3/LGB/CPH Wolves.

Na`Vi, please go practice Cobblestone or it's just gonna end up being your new Nuke.

Dignitas hitting nasty shots. They're about to beat Navi in a BO3 on LAN.

Does anyone know the music that plays during the breaks? Is there a playlist? There's this one track that I find really catchy, they've also played it during SC2 tournies. I quickly tried to Soundhound it...but Soundhound didn't recognize the track
