Two of the three SK teams will play one another for their first matches of the day, and both teams will look to get off to a fast start in group play. The big question for this match, is what lineup will each one run as both have several strong teams.

SK Gaming (EU) is coming off a disappointing 3rd place finish in the Euro Championships, but they will not let that effect their game play come the Global Finals. This team is very experienced when it comes to tournament play, especially in group play. They were 5-0 in these recent Euro Championships, and were 3-1 in the Montreal Global Challenge. Great chemistry is what this team has developed, and they will use this to their full advantage throughout these Global Finals.

SK Gaming (US) was a team that just recently rebuilt their roster. The famous Serennia is still the team captain, but he will now be joined by sck and Realz. Individually these players are very skilled and perhaps some of best to play their appropriate classes, but WoW is a team game. Most will be watching SK US to see if they can really work together and pull out a strong finish in this tournament, despite their lack of practice and team chemistry.

It will be interesting to see what composition each SK team decides to run with against one another. Most likely we will see things start off with SK EU going with Paladin/Rogue/Death Knight and SK US using Paladin/Hunter/Death Knight. But with SK EU beating x6tence twice in the Euro tournament, who ran Paladin/Hunter/Death Knight, SK US could look to switch up to a mirror lineup. SK EU also has a strong RMP comp of course, but will probably not be used.
