Many had looked to Jin Air to benefit from the all-kill format of the Round 1 Playoffs, but in the end it was SK Telecom T1 who scored the all-kill. SKT_PartinG, who had only recorded a modest 4-2 record (by his standards) in the regular season, exploded for an all-kill in his first appearance in the playoffs.
PartinG would live up to his reputation as a master of all-ins and micro. His famed Soul Train all-in with immortals and sentries took down Rogue, heavy 3-gate pressure punished sOs' fast expand, and a blink all-in allowed him to defeat Maru and complete his all-kill.
SK Telecom move on to face Samsung Galaxy on February 10th.
