2022-23 ESL Pro Tour - Open Cups: Week #226 (May 6th)

by Wax

Week #226 of the Open Cups was played the day after the EPT regionals concluded, but many of the regulars still turned out to give us a series of competitive events.

The Korean server cup concluded in an unsurprising (Wiki)herO victory, with the #1 Protoss going through the gauntlet of Creator (2-0), Dark (2-1), ByuN (2-0), and GuMiho (3-2) on his way to the weekly title. There was, however, a pleasant surprise much lower down in the bracket, as (Wiki)Trap played in his first official competition since returning from military surface. He was immediately eliminated in the RO32 with a 1-2 loss to Classic, but it wouldn't be the last time we saw Trap on the week...

Moving on to Europe, (Wiki)MaxPax and Clem clashed in the finals for the sixth straight week, with Clem having won four out of their five previous meetings. MaxPax got some revenge this time around, defeating Clem with a 3-1 victory in the finals. This match also happened to be a rematch of a bout that happened somewhere in the EPT Regional playoffs, giving it some extra intrigue.

+ Show Spoiler [EPT results] +
While it probably wasn't much consolation to MaxPax, he 'avenged' his 3-4 finals loss to Clem in the EPT Europe grand finals.


Next up was the Americas competition, and this time (Wiki)Trap put in a solid performance for a player who's barely a month returned from military service. Trap made a run to the RO8 with notable wins over Mixu (2-1) and ByuN (2-1), but bowed out in the quarterfinals with a 1-2 loss to herO. As for the weekly championship itself, (Wiki)MaxPax went on a perfect, loss-less run in the Americas competition to earn a weekly double, defeating Astrea, GuMiho, and herO in the final three rounds.

In non-ESL cup competitions, (Wiki)Classic took his second straight victory in the Kung Fu Cups by winning Summer tournament #2, going on a very impressive run that included wins versus Cure, Rex, ByuN, MaxPax, and Solar.

No mention of Reynor who was the other finalist?

Classic killing it in the kung fu cup while doing meh in everything else and missing GSL and Kato is surprising. Despite the lack of EPT points that's definitely the most valuable weekly cup too. Just thee 2 wins should near guarantee he'll be in the next masters colosseum.

Trap's unit control was sick, he looks like he can be the best protoss and contend with the other championship players to be at the very top once again. Will be excited to see how he will do, especially now that things are a bit better for Protoss than a few years ago.

Serral Clem Maxpax and Maru Rogue Trap... that's 2 nice trinities

Where did you find it? yesterday, when I was not in the mood to write my assignments, I found this website https://domypaper.com/ which I wrote for you. I ordered an assignment from them and it blew my mind. If you also need, you can also contact them to do your work.
