2022-23 ESL Pro Tour - Open Cups: Week #198 (October 23th)

by Wax

Week #198 of the Open Cups was most notable for the updated faction colors on Liquipedia. No, but seriously, there were some interesting results that went down, even though the ultimate winners were somewhat predictable.

The week began with (Wiki)ByuN winning on the Korean server, going through Solar, GuMiho, and SHIN (formerly RagnaroK) on his way to the cup victory. SHIN himself made a very impressive run to the finals, taking down both Cure and Dark before being toppled by ByuN.

Next was the European Cup, which concluded with the familiar MaxPax vs Clem final. This time, (Wiki)MaxPax edged out his regional rival by a 3-2 scoreline to take the weekly cup. In notable upsets, Kelazhur kept up his recent trend of intruding into the top four, but was ultimately shown the door by his former Liquid teammate Clem.

The ESL cups concluded on the American server with a rematch from Europe as Clem and MaxPax faced off once more. (Wiki)Clem got his revenge in the return bout, winning 3-0 to take home the final EPT tournament of the week.

In non-ESL Cups, (Wiki)Serral made a surprise appearance in Kung Fu Cup Winter #4 and won it all. The KSL returned after a break in the previous week, and Oliveira emerged as the champion with wins over GuMiho, Dark, and Solar.

He also had some shaky results lately in WTL, so I'm glad he is picking up the pace again. Right on time I guess

Is there a way to see how many times a player who was actually from one of both American continents managed to win the American Cup?
Have a nice day!

Would not be a pretty sight to look at the details.

But the liquipedia page for the american open cup does list who won and who got second
I'm just a cynical video game enjoyer who is probably unfazed by many business dealings many would find utterly distasteful, while not strictly illegal by the law as seen in a general sense in the world.

I checked the stats for the fun of it:

Astrea IIII
Neeb IIIIIII
Special IIIII
Scarlett III
Cham
Future
PiliPili

Most of the wins were Season 1 though.
Have a nice day!

TriggeR did win one in season 3 but the field was weaker so like grain of salt

Even during the first season there was already the idea that home server advantage would not be close to enough if Korean or EU players are used to play through ping and would be able to win anyway, and it became worse and worse over the seasons. Outside the big names you could see the others taking home a couple of dollars and points, but winning is out of the question.

Waiting for Waxangel to write the summary for the #199, but it almost ended up the same way than the #198 (the only difference is that Dark spoiled ByuN during the Asia one) :p
