After two weeks a look at the standings shows Dandy up 3-0 in series but Dewalt, who has only played 2 series, winning on individual matches. The unique format of BBT where the prize pool is divided equally between all matches make every match counts and in matches Dewalt, who is 9-1, has a 90% winrate compared to Dandy's 11-4 (73%). On the other end of the scale we have vOddy, who has lost all 3 series he's played, but has a 27% winrate in individual matches which actually puts him ahead of DragOn and trutaCz. It's still very early in the event though with excellent such as cRoSs who we've not yet seen.

You should watch all of the games so rather than do an old fashioned battle report I'm just going to compile all of the links for you in this post and give you my personal picks of the best games.

I Recommend Game 3 on Eclipse. A very close PvZ with a strong performance by both players.

Game 5 on Dies Irae is my game of the series, mostly because it was the longest ZvZ in the series. Maybe it's pure Protoss bias but I find entertainment in ZvZ games to be proportionate to game length.

Game 4 on Demonio Azul is the one I recommend the most. Plenty of cool moments and impressive micro without any TvT stagnation.

Game 3 on Eclipse. A nailbitingly close 20+ minute TvZ with everything that makes the matchup fun to watch. Just a generally fun game.

If you want an example of how to play PvZ against a top tier opponent then you must watch Game 2 on Sylphid.
Oya vs TerrOr

The excellent usage of Spider Mines in Game 2 on Sylphid makes the series for me, an absolute must watch!
Overall I think Oya vs Terror game 2 is my overall pick for the week but I am biased towards both of those amazing players.
