The third day of our 34th IEM StarCraft® tournament saw eight top players battling it out for a slot in the semifinals. After two days of exciting group stage matches, we couldn’t wait to see what herO, iAsonu, TY, Dark, Rogue, INnoVation, soO and ByuN would show us in the quarterfinals. The results did end up being more or less one sided with the exception of herO vs. INnoVation, which needed all five maps to be played out.
After four world-class series, it will be herO, TY, ByuN or Rogue who will lift the IEM Shanghai trophy during tomorrow’s finals.
Results and highlights
- TY vs. iAsonu 3-0
- INnoVation vs. herO 2-3
- Rogue vs. Dark 3-0
- soO vs. ByuN 1-3
