White-Ra is a player known for his creativity and well mannered approach to games, and with the ever-present “Special Tactics” his PvP is guaranteed to be entertaining to the fullest. With tactics developed since White-Ra's days as one of the best foreign Protoss Brood War player, since which time his inventiveness has shined through winning many tournaments, White-Ra truly is a master of the RTS genre. Feast on the other hand placed 4th in the IEM World Championships, Top 8 at various IEM stops and is constantly proving he has what it takes to go up in the ranks. Having been signed to team Millenium, Feast has become a significant force to be reckoned with.
This event will showcase some of the highest level PvP in Europe and will show how what used to be considered a coin-flip matchup has developed into a dynamic, exciting micro focussed battle of minds between some incredible players.
Not only will the event be broadcast from both players points of view on their own streams but PokerStrategy.com has taken it one step further. Should you wish to watch as a spectator with casters too, there will be an English cast provided by Z33k. This allows the most detailed viewpoint of the games possible short of being an in-game spectator yourself.

Feast 8:4 White-Ra
Predictions:
Robert "PandaTank" Botha: I think this should be a fairly close one. From my own observations both players have pretty strong PvP. I believe the nature of a BO15 will favour Feast in terms of stamina. Although on the other hand WhiteRa's very creative style helps keeps him unpredictable in such a long series. I'm going with 8-5 in Feast's favour.
Samayan "BlinG" Kay: In such a huge series i think white-ra will have the upperhand here. Everyone knows him for his creative and unique playstyle and with so many mind games in PvP as it is, white-ra will have the slight advantage here i feel. On the other hand, feast's micro and overall solid play will be really tough for white-ra to crack so i have no hesitation in saying that the series will be a close one!
Prediction: 8-6 for WhiteRa.
Vesa "Welmu" Hovinen: Both players are really good, but I think that Feast will barely win it 8-5. I've played many games against Feast recently in ladder and his play feels very strong at the moment
Jon "BabyKnight" Anderson: They're both good players, but I think their worst matchups are their pvps. I would give a slight edge to Feast, 8-7 :D
