The Altitude ISL3 is climbing to great heights, soaring through the clouds with our 16 remaining players. Over the last two weeks we lost half of the 32 players qualified and the tension is rising as we advance one more step in the final rounds. Come Saturday the 19th of May, these brave warriors will once more enter the arena, battling it out in eight Best of 5s, to determine who will advance to the Quarterfinals, and guarantee themselves at least part of a total of 500$ in the process.

The match-ups for this week are listed below. The full bracket, as always, can be found on:

AltitudeISL.net



Round of 16

Sziky vs Bizzy
TechnicS vs AstrO
Bibiane vs LancerX
DragOn vs Pro7ect

dOTY vs Karate
Kolll vs Sneazel
Southpark vs Semih
Dewalt vs Michael



Repeating their feat of getting to the Ro16 from ISL2 are AstrO, Pro7ect, Michael, Sneazel and Bibiane, with Sziky and Southpark as well-knowns having managed so in ISL1 and ISL2 both.

Interview with Kolll



You beat skzlime in the Ro32. How did that go? Everything according to plan?

To be honest, I didn't really practice for the Ro32 and I think skzlime would've beaten me had he played standard. But instead he decided to try some strange cheese/semicheese/1base strats, and this stuff rarely works against me plus he made a few crucial bad decisions/micro mistakes which made everything even worse. So I'm lucky to be in the next round =).

You're playing Sneazel next. Are you confident you can win? Are you well prepared?

The last time I played Sneazel was a while ago and at that time I felt that he would be a guy i would definitely beat in a bo3 or bo5, but since then I have not seen many games from him so I can't really tell for myself if I have a good chance or not. But I definitely am always confident, not being confident in any game would be disaster for anybody, including me. Altough I don't know yet how well I will prepare myself against him, I will definitely ask some guys about his playstyle as of recent and download some replays.

If you beat Sneazel you have to play either dOTY or Karate - who would you rather face and why?

ZvZ being my favorite matchup I would really prefer Karate altough he might be the better player of the two. But that decision is based purely on matchup, I haven't really followed how good they both have gotten in the last months. Karate, I think, has always been kind of good. dOTY, though, I have no clue about.

How about the rest of the tournament - what do you think about the overal results so far, is there anyone you're rooting for and would you like to say anything else?

I haven't really watched any of the games but I'm definitely surprised dOTY beat Ace 3-0 I definitely wouldn't have expected Ace to drop out so early. And the only one I'm rooting for is me, with so much money on the line, but I wish everyone all the luck they can get.



Interview with Southpark



You beat Bakuryu in the Ro32. How did that go? Everything according to plan?

I think the outcome would be different if Baku has not committed a few errors. Fortunately for me, SC: BW is also a game where just such a mistake can change the outcome. In ZvZ I handle pretty well because I had a good chance of winning this well and made it

You're playing Semih next. Are you confident you can win? Are you well prepared?

Semih is a strong opponent. Playing with him will be very difficult especially since everyone knows my style :D But I think everyone is to be overcome and that if I win it already soon. Are they getting ready? Neither the game nor the Baku now nothing I trained and I will not (except for a few games, 2x2) because of that I feel like a little game In this game the first time I put on his rival because he feels that the chances of winning are much, much smaller than vs Baku

If you beat Semih you have to play either Dewalt or Michael - who would you rather face and why?

However, if I manage to win it's obvious that I would rather play vs Michael because that would ZvZ where I am strongest. Dewalt But I think it may be that I could be even better with him than with Michael but unfortunately in a duel winner Michael Dewalt vs. I'm 100% sure of course, will be up again, zerg.

How about the rest of the tournament - what do you think about the overal results so far, is there anyone you're rooting for and would you like to say anything else?

As for the fans. Of course, cheering Sneazel that if he wants to reach top4. And who will be my opponent if I win anything up to this point As in every tournament Sziky is the most powerful but it is not indestructible. Anyone can lose to anyone. Almost everyone is very prepared for their opponents, maps, each preparing any strategies and this is interesting From Sziky I play only in the finals and such would be the most enjoyed, but for now this can only augur. Haha I wanted to greet fans and wish everyone good luck.

Cheering for Project!
The best storyline would be a foreign Terran standing tall in a red sea filled with weeds.

No TvT? I'd think that it'd be a really good matchup for Foreigner v Foreigner since not many players do it. Just 3rax Firebat rush or something.
