The returning champions, RattleSnake.Int had an excellent start to their playoff bid. Their momentum has seemed unstoppable moving into the Semi-Finals versus Evil Geniuses. They looked like a team that could easily repeat a third run in a row at the Bigpoint Battle title. In spite of putting up a valiant fight, Jacky 'Eternal Envy' Mao and company could not manage a win.
Noteworthy play from the newly formed SSD impressed both the audience and competitors alike. They took down Power Rangers, who were just coming off a solid performance in Star Ladder Season 7, followed by Virtus Pro and Team Empire. Their ability to secure solid drafts ahead of other teams, coupled with high individual skill play spoke volumes of what this team is capable of. Provided they are consistent, this will be a team that will turn heads in the near future.
Talented play and a spot of luck is what it takes to win a quick tournament like this and Evil Geniuses proved to have just that. They were able to maneuver themselves through the tournament with steadfast play, not dropping a single game.
