Knockout is a new Starcraft II show where we pit two players against each other in a bo7 show-match to see who will come out victorious! The winner will receive a $50 prize and obvious bragging rights. After introducing the players we will let them have at each other with some friendly trash talk, as well as predictions on how the series will go. We want to use players who already have a bit of a friendly rivalry to make that desire to beat one another that much more intense.
Episode 1. The Battle of Atlanta.
FXOFuture and QuanticMaSsan are both residents of Atlanta Georgia and have had a friendly rivalry for years. Both players are formerly of team Flow Gaming and both are always trying to claim to be the better player. This Friday we will have an answer to that debate.
Players
FXOFuture is a professional Protoss player from team FXO. Future has been playing Professionally ever since the days of Brood War, a true veteran player.

Excited for this, Talex is hilarious, he could cast the phone book and I'd watch, but Future v Massan, I have to admit that's better.
