+ Show Spoiler [Dreiven's Upset] +
In the laddering prior to the Razer TSL, Mondragon had been crushing opponents on his way to #1. In particular, his overpool ling runby had given him a miraculous 44-1 record against protoss. Can Dreiven, the protoss from Poland find a way to upset the Razer TSL favorite?
Game 1
Game 2
+ Show Spoiler [BRAT_OK's folly] +
It's the 3rd/4th place match, and BRAT_OK has completely dismantled NonY in games 1 and 2. NonY tries to turn the series around with an extremely aggressive proxy 9-10 gateway build designed to end the game quickly. BRAT_OK uses great scv and marino micro to deflect the attack. NonY has a late core and gas, while BRAT_OK has a factory up already. What can NonY possibly do to come back, and how will BRAT_OK respond?
+ Show Spoiler [JianFei's Reavers] +
Draco is up 2-0 and on the verge of winning the Razer TSL championship. JianFei has been beaten in both prior games without using his trademark reavers. With his back against the wall, JianFei spots an opportunity to attack Draco. Draco sees it coming and builds a shield battery. Can JianFei's reaver micro carry him and spark a comeback in the finals?

Mondragon is poised for a deep TSL 2 run. Old school player Shaman is fighting for survival down 1-2. Yamatos, infested terrans, queens and plagues, oh my.
+ Show Spoiler [Ret's Extractor Trick] +
Ret began the TSL 2 facing a gauntlet of potential zerg opponents. His first round matchup against Castro opened with him going 12 hatch, which gained him a slight economic advantage over Castro's 12 pool. After that, the game can only be described as crazy.

Down 0-2 to Defending Champion IefNaji, GosI[Terran] finds himself in a bit of trouble. 2 Horror gates and a shield battery have been made in GosI[Terran]'s base. Can he get a vulture out in time to save his TSL 2 life?

MVP has recently been demoted to Code A on the back TvP losses. AdelScott has a unique heavy gateway unit style. Despite this, MVP is the overwhelming favorite to crush AdelScott.
Game 1
Game 1
+ Show Spoiler [QXC's reversal of fate] +
QXC had recently showed poor form, but surprised everyone by taking game one off of Genius. It's game 2, and Genius is really showing his form. Genius is up 38 supply, and has a gold base for his third while QXC has a regular base for his third. How can the Guerrilla Terran come back from this?
Game 2
+ Show Spoiler [Goody's Last Push] +
It's all tied up 1-1 and it's the deciding game 3. Goody and Nestea are in cross positions on Tal Darim. Goody pushed early to siege Nestea's natural. and took it out. However, Nestea counterattacked Goody and took out nearly all of his SCVs. Goody then sent in his 3 hellions and took out about 13 drones to close the gap in harvesters of 40 drones to 32 scvs. The Panzer King has also lost all of his hellions recently and is down 30 supply. He has decided that this will be his last stand. The Panzer King sieges up outside of Nestea natural, while Nestea counterattacks with roaches. Are those really Panzer Tanks?
Game 3
+ Show Spoiler [Mondragon's Guide to Unit Counters] +
Mondragon has been an unknown going into the TSL3. Predictions have been all over the place as to how well he would do. In his opening games vs Zeerax, Mondragon showed us an interesting counter to voidray/colossus/phoenix.
