Finally, the Master's Coliseum qualifier comes to the last tournament, we believe that will be most exciting wildcard qualifier. In this tournament, we have four players remaining and all of them are from different races, it show the energy of the players and how balance of this game...... I think we  are far away from the the topic, let's have some review together.


Lucifer is really good Undead player on counter to Human, before that, he just defeated TH000 with 3:1, seems unstoppable. However, according to the record, HawK usually defeated Lucifer with 2:1, so we shouldn't make a judgement on the result right now. HawK always like to expansion and develop when facing Undead, at the same time, Human's heroes can always counter to Undead and with like playing RPG, so HawK is possible to win in this match up. So, let's us watch their battle afterwards.




Right now, I want to ask Coco: Tolkien(a important staff in China's Warcraft) is the principal that draw those match up right?
Coco(another staff): Yes he is.


Emmm...Lyn has already met Colorful at least three times in the last few tournament, Colorful lost a lot of those but all of those were close games. Colorful showed us his potential, his strength and proof that he is the hope of the Chinese's Night Elf player. However, Lyn, the man who always defeat Moon, Lawliet, Foggy, and always show the great mentality quality in the crucial time.

So, Colorful is facing a very strong opponent, so I am looking good on Lyn, we believe their battle will be a close game and the main topic tonight.




I have to remind you, this is a Double-elimination tournament from now, so it is unable to guess the result of match. There is not my matter if there are any mistake, and also not my DUNAI [1], go find Tolkien, he has the responsibility.

Remarks:
[1] There is a situation when someone is confident and proclaim someone definitely win the game, but after his announcement, the situation reversed, the situation is considered as DUNAI in china.

The July race come to the end last night. After the matches between Lyn, FoCuS, Moon, Fly100%,  Lyn won the title. Moon and Fly100% got third and fourth place, and FoCuS defeated Moon in the Lower Bracket's Final and got second place.


Double-elimination is a chance to the players, but it is also a challenge for them, you have not any chance again if you drop to the lower bracket. In the winner bracket, Lyn defeated FoCuS with 3:1 and wait on the Grand Final. At the same time, Moon won Fly100% with 3:0, he used Dryad for 2 times and Talons only once.

However, Moon was really struggling when facing to FoCuS, the Chinese's Friend--FoCuS[1] really mighty when facing to Korean Players, maybe he knows Moon well, this made the tactics of Moon wasn't useful on FoCuS last night, such as the tactic with KOG as 1st hero, this tactic made Fly100% really struggling at the Lower Semi-Final. At last, FoCuS face to Lyn again on the Grand Final.



Generally, the BO7  in the Orcs Mirror should take a long time, however, Lyn had time to rests enough and FoCuS deplete a lot of power in the fight with Moon, meanwhile, FoCuS's micro wasn't better than Lyn last night and the god of destiny stood with Lyn. Finally, Lyn defeated FoCuS  with a big win, 4:0 and won the 1st place of July race.


**JOKE
Moon: Hey, Lyn, Why you can beat FoCuS easily?
Lyn: Maybe you should in China.



Remarks:
[1] FoCuS always defeat Korean Players in a lot of tournament, but not Chinese Players, so the Chinese audiences make fun with this.

The games last night was beyond our imagination. The former teammates in WFM, Moon and Lyn was playing great. Lyn used the Far Seer, the hero has been buffed in version 1.29 to get a good start in the game, and took the victory in the middle game. Moon was playing steady and advanced to the winner bracket's semi final.

Another two Orc players are FoCuS and Fly100%, FoCuS always play well when facing the Korean NE player, so he defeated Lawliet and Moon and moved to the winner bracket's final. And Fly100% dropped to the lower bracket after he has been defeated by Lyn, after that, He knocked down Lawliet and move to the Lower Bracket's Semi Final.

There is a man.
He is a low-key person, after all these years, a lot of audiences still thought he is a freshman.
He love war3, he still adhere to this game, and held some tournament with his own money, while some of others player quit.
His game is amazing, the first man to use bug in the game(unlimited TP and use the Staff of Preservation on Zeppelin ), and his Warden is flexible and smart.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that you has already knew this man, he is the guest of this interview, a NE player from Korea, Lawliet.

He is still a student, so he is playing Warcraft and studying simultaneously. And he also plays Starcraft 2 and some RPG games.

Lawliet is one of the greatest NE player, so we will ask him about the situation of NE in the new version(1.30)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Hi Lawliet, first of all, is Night Elf still playable?

L: A lot of units have been nerfed (DH, Bears, Talons), but the units in early game become better, it seems like a new Night Elf. However, We can't judge good or bad right now, we haven't try, but basically I think it can.



Q: You defeated Lyn in the Master's Coliseum Korean Qualifier, Do you have any comment about that game?

L:  In version 1.29, NE is having difficulty when facing Orc and HU, and I was not in the state, and I used HU to play a lot of matches. However, I prepared a lot for this match, I talked and practiced so much with So.in, and he gave me a lot of help. I think my state and luck is better than Lyn that night, so I qualified.



Q: A lot of people is talking about the Orc can upgrade the Reinforced Defense in tech of two(Stronghold), what your comment about this change?

L:  umm... Orc is good on their management, this change let the Orc become more unbeatable, I think this change is a mistaken, it has to be deleted.



Q: In the new version, Talons become more expensive, Is them still the main power on countering to Orc?

L: Yes, I think Talons still very good on countering to Orc, although it is more expensive. So I will still using it in the situation I have to play without Archer and Huntresses.



Q: Let's talk about your life, Is Warcraft III still the main in your life?

L: It is hard to play Warcraft with all the time, however I won't reduce the time on Warcraft III.



Q: Last question, talk about your target in WGL winter.

L: It is too early to talk about this, it is just qualifier right now, the first target is qualifier to the main playoffs,after that is resulting better than last time.Finally , same as all the players, get the title.

WGL's July race has continued last night, Group A and B has finished and C, D will be continue tonight. The elimination of 120 and Infi is surprising, let's have a short review of what happened.


Let's take a look at Group A, in the match against Lawliet, 120 is playing recklessly as he has a plane to catch, resulting in a 2:0, he surrender soon after that. Fly100% won Sok with ease, after that Fly100% fought against Lawliet. Lawliet is playing Human as he gets too confident, however he lost. Then Lawliet fought Sok, his roommate, in the lower bracket. Surprisingly, Lawliet won Sok with Human race, Emmm...looks like he won't be his roommate for some time.

As for Group B, no matter how dispirited Focus is, he still 2:0 when playing against Lucifer. Infi thinks that if he wants to be the best Orc player, he must win against Xiaokk. Xiaokk is no joke, he succeed in kicking Infi to the lower bracket. Infi loses his sharpness and got revenged by Lucifer.

Winner bracket's Xiaokk helplessly met FoCuS, the player that no other can beat but Lyn in Orc Mirror, in the end Xiaokk was forced to guarantee FoCuS outline. The last battle is between XiaoKK and Lucifer, recently Lucifer's Undead vs Orc improved significantly, got a clean elimination against Xiaokk and advanced to 8 strong, congratulations!

Master's Coliseum Wildcard Qualifier's open audition had already finished last night. Then the Semi-final and Final will be continued in next week.



Last night, the former best human player Hawk was on fire, knocking down all the Chinese amateur player.

On the other hand, Lyn also defeated all the player he met, we thought that the world's third Undead player, Tbc [1]could had a big fight with Lyn at first, but Lyn defeated Tbc easily.

Furthermore,  Colorful was playing steady, the micro of the Talon seems like "Remind. Jr", there was really surprise he had defeated FoCuS and Sini ,and went though to the Semi-Final.

The last area was the area of death, unfortunately WFZ quit after a big fight with Chaemiko, and we thought that Chaemiko become better at countering on Undead, however, he had been defeated by Lucifer after a moment. In the last round, Zhouxixi was seizing the chance for the semi final with Lucifer, although Zhouxixi is a good player, he lost the game to Lucifer.

And if you are asking for Life, we can tell you that he was too tired to continue, because he is still a student, so he gave up the chance and go to sleep at 11:00pm.

Finally, Lyn, Hawk, Colorful and Lucifer will play on next Tuesday in Semi-Final.



By the way, we found out that there are four races in the three of the qualifier(China, Korea, Wildcard), isn't that meaning the Warcraft is balance between the races?




Remarks:
[1]Tbc call himself the world's third Undead

One of the most popular player 120, and the man who just eliminated Lyn in the Master's Coliseum Korean Qualifier recently, Lawliet, Both of them will be the first game tonight, we believe they will be having a great game for us.

On the other hand, we also really expect the game between Fly100% and Sok. Sok is an unpredictable player, he had defeated the greatest player sometimes, so let us are expecting their performance tonight.

Master's Coliseum Korean Qualifier had finished last night. Before we go forward to the game, it is worth mentioning about the narrator, ScBoy (Xiaose and F91), one of the best narrator team in Chinese Starcraft, featuring our sponsor and Zhou Ning, a narrator of warcraft's WCG.

First, there is no surprise that Lyn defeated FoCuS while Lawliet defeated Chaemiko. But in the winner bracket, Lawliet cracked down Lyn by losing the 1st round and had a comeback, resulting 2-1 and stopping the winning streak that Lyn had against him in this year.

In the lower bracket, FoCuS seems out of state today, unluckily he meets Chaemiko, the Human player who is famous in countering Orc players. As a result, FoCuS became the first player who quit last night, he failed to defeat God[1].

In the first half of this year, Chaemiko knocked down Lyn many times by using TR(tower rush) with Firelord, and he was using the same tactic last night, but we know that Xiaose is famous DUNAI[2], he just showed us how powerful he is. After a great TR, Lyn's base almost collapse, and Xiaose said "Come on! Human already won!" after a moment, Chaemiko's Firelord went back to the battlefield with low HP and got killed by Lyn. Well...congratulations Lyn!!!






After that, Lyn went through to the grand final with Lawliet, with Lawliet starting 1-0, because of the winner bracket. In this game,we could see Lawliet was well prepared, ending the game in last round with the map LR, double killing Lyn in one night.

The audiences were discussing after the game, was Lyn out of state? Or was Lawliet playing too well? They have a conclusion that it was actually Xiaose's DUNAI!








Remarks:
[1] In China, the players and audiences like to call Lyn as "Lyn神" , means the God, Lyn.
[2] There is a situation when someone is confident and proclaim someone definitely win the game, but after his announcement, the situation reversed, the situation is considered as DUNAI in china.

WGL July will occur on July 26th 19:00(GMT+8).  After going through the GCS summer, the players have adapted to version 1.29,  developing more tactics and ideas, thus delivering lots of exciting matches.


















Group A:
Can 120 take the revenge on Fly100%?
Lawliet is having a big challenge

In GSC, Fly100% is the most formidable opponent to 120. In 2016 spring, Fly100% stopped 120 become the champion; In the last summer, Fly100% prevented 120 to go to semi-final, the formal champion. On the other hand, Fly100% used his great micro to crack down the 120 that with using Crypt, Banshee and Dread Lord as 3rd hero. Furthermore, Fly100% also played with changeable tactics, this made 120 become passive in the game. However, Undead is having a new tactics that with Frost Wyrm, we believe that 120 won't give up the change for having the revenge on Fly100%.

For Lawliet, it may be the one of the hardest group stage for him. It seem like we have to search about the game two years ago, for we find out that Lawliet defeated Fly100% and 120 in the game last time. But Lawliet is a miracle player, for example, he defeated Moon with start as 0-2 behind in the last summer,what a game. We hope Lawliet can show us the miracle again.





Group B:
Lucifer surrounded by Orcs
Infi's Orc is facing a great opponent.

Lucifer is facing a lot of Orcs, again. Although Lucifer defeated a many Orcs from the last group stage with his great macro and micro, Infi, Xiaokk, FoCuS are the player that really strong and big different style, the fans of Lucifer may have a worried night.

Maybe Infi is practicing for version 1.30, so he is using Orc to join the game again. We saw that Infi's Orc is improving with he defeated Moon in the last group stage. But in the version 1.29, the orc mirror didn't changing too much in the game. So Infi's Orc is having a test that prove he is a great Orc player. As we remember, 120 was using Orc to defeat FoCuS in April race, can Infi do it again? Let's us figure out in the game.



Group C:
Lyn vs WFZ, a fight between the leader
Colourful may become the x-factor

Lyn, one of the best Orc player duel with Undead; WFZ, a man who didn't lose any game when duel with Orc in 2014. Absolutely, Lyn and WFZ are the leader to their own race in Orc vs Undead. The fight between them is game we shouldn't miss. Let's wait and see.

Colourful should be the x-factor in this group. After a month of the GCS summer, Colourful improve himself significant, defeated Sok, Life, Chaemiko, and almost win WFZ recently, on the other hand, the tatics developed by Colourful, KOG with Hippogryphs Rider is really useful. In this group stage, he will have the change to challenge Lyn and WFZ. By the way, he played really well last night, but his IQ going low again.





Group D:
TH000 vs Moon again!!!
The fight between master of tatics

The games that TH000 vs Moon are uncountable, they have been giving us a lot of great game: in GCS April race, the last WCG final, the game between them always make us so exciting.In the version 1.29, Alchemist has been summon by the Alliance a lot of times and this make the human become greater, so let's expect how Moon figure out.

By the way, seem Moon hasn't figure out his weakness recently, he become weaker when facing to Orc, this make Soin have a change to qualified from this group, as we know, Far Seer become stronger in this version and make the Horde become active when facing to Night Elf, Moon have to play harder for his qualified.

In the Master's Coliseum qualified, 120 had a great performance, he was showing his great micro and reverse the situation. As the tradition, we had gone to watch 120's streaming after game,to see him fronting himself.
