Keith "Igoaf" Trahan recaps another one of today's highlight matches.


GotFrag.com - The third series here at BlizzCon opens up a battle between the US and Taiwan. DKP known for their rogue, DK and priest comp are going to be faced with the cleavage of TSG’s warrior, DK and paladin. The full plate line up of TSG should prove to be a problem for DKP.

Game One

Dalaran – Pressure onto Veex as he tries to establish onto the priest of DKP but is forced to escape as the pressure is too much. TSG finally establishes onto a target and it is too much for the team from Taiwan. The first game goes to TSG as Zilea did a great job of keeping his team up.

Game Two

Ruins – A lot of pressure onto Veex at the start once again, but once TSG establishes onto the priest of DKP it becomes too much. TSG showing the power of cleave versus a priest healer based composition. The series advances to 2-0 in the favor of TSG and things don’t look good for DKP.

Game Three

Ruins – No changes for either team, Valrath comes out with an early grip onto DKP’s rogue and immediately swaps to the priest who pops pain sup. Both teams doing an insane amount of damage and cooldowns are being burned. Big damage onto Veex as he dies in his bladestorm and the priest of DKP goes down followed by Valrath giving a close game to DKP, TSG still up 2-1.

Game Four

Ring of Valor - Veex comes out with sword and board out onto the back of DKP’s rogue. DKP is slowly being worn down, as Veex hits bladestorm with a one hander out. There is still a lot of damage onto Veex and Zilea is forced to Bop him. DKP’s priest in a lot of trouble and eventually goes down to the constant pressure from TSG, TSG 3-1.

Final Thoughts

TSG doing what cleave does best, mowing over anything in cloth. DKP did a great job of pressuring Veex but it just wasn’t enough when in the final game he spent most of his time with a shield out. Both teams from America showing they are here to win along with an impressive win from x6.
