EPT
During week 1, some games were played to help divide the teams into two groups (though the groups don't seem to mean much at the moment) for the first round. With week two, the 'surival matches'. With 2 teams already in the round of 8, 2 of the 8 non-seeded teams need to be weeded out.
Group A: GO(seed), Samsung, KTF, AMD, Ktec (old IS)
Group B: Soul, Orion, POS, Hanbitsoft, Kor
The way it works is the 3 of the 4 non-seeded teams in each group make it to the next round. The teams pair up for best 2of3's, and the two winners go to the next round. The two losing teams play a final match, where the winner goes to the next round and the loser is eliminated. After the first round, the remaining 8 teams play in a single elimination tournament, where the games are best 4 of 7 (unless they're bastards and change it midway ;p).
Anyway, here we go with the first surival match results!
The group A games were played first~
Samsung vs KTF
1: Autumn(KTF) > Shinya(p, Samsung) on Dark Sauron
2: TheMarine(KTF) > Ggon(p, Samsung) on JR's Memory J
Samsung 0 : 2 KTF
AMD vs Ktec(IS)
1: Sindoki(Ktec) > Jinnam(AMD) on Dark Sauron
2: V-Gundam(AMD) > Mumyung(Ktec) on JR's Memory
3: Busan[s.g](Ktec, p) > Elky(AMD) on Plains to Hill D
AMD 1 : 2 Ktec
So, Ktec and KTF go on to the next round, while AMD and Samsung will play for the last spot in 2 week's time.
Next week, Orion vs POS and Hanbit vs Kor.
