The round of 16 saw some amazing games and some of the closest matches of the tournament so far. Some of the more notable story lines include
Radley upsetting 
Octzerg 2-1 and Technics taking down 
WandS 2-1 in some highly entertaining and close games. Zergs seemed to fair the best overall as there are 5 in the round of 8 compared with only 2 and 1 . At least we're guaranteed to have a Terran in the semis 
.Maps have been updated again. There is a change to the natural choke on Hazard Black to make walling easier. Download the updated map pack. Post any bugs, balance issues, and any feedback in this thread.
