SK Gaming's tournament so far has been a roller-coaster ride. They started off well with a flawless win over Pandemic. Kintt even went as far to say that after that match, SK would be the team to beat in the tournament. Following that match, they went on to play fellow Europeans in Nihilum.

The entire team spoke with GotFrag about their match with Nihilum.

"First game was WLD for Nihilum, we simply tunnelvisionned the warlock and he died pretty quick. The second game they ran double melee druid and it came down to a 1v1 against our mage which we were lucky enough to win."

They would finish off the series in the next game, giving them a perfect record in the tournament.

Their third and final match of the day would be against the winless GotGame East, where they were expected to roll right on through to an undefeated record.

However, that wouldn't be the case as GGE jumped out to an early lead with a quick win in under a minute.

"We cant focus any viable targets off the start, but they can all three jump on the mage quite easily, especially cheapshots would put him at 20% hp...so from there on, it was impossible to recover."

This would be the story of the match, as SK's RMP wouldn't be able to put up even one round against the RMD of GGE.

When asked to comment on the new patch, and if they feel confident for the rest of the tournament, Xom spoke for the team.

"We hope to do good in this tournament, but it's a whole new game with the patch as no one has ever played it before. And with the new abilities they have, they havent had time to get used to it, so they cant use it at their full potential...so the game still needs a couple of weeks to adapt to."

They will finish off their group play match against EG on Saturday.
