Trivia[edit]

  • GOMTVs First Super Tournament
  • The tournament took a break for MLG Columbus, affecting June 3 and 4 (the 5th will be a regular Sunday for GSL). This also marked the first time there was a solo caster for the English stream, as Tasteless and Artosis were at MLG and Moletrap was to return to the United States, leaving Wolf to cast by himself for a few days of the Round of 32.
  • Only Terrans reached the Semi Finals.
  • MMA made it through to the finals of the Super Tournament facing only Terran opponents the entire way.
  • Prior to the actual matches of the finals, the finals of the LG Cinema 3D Special League were played. There was also a performance by the Kpop band RainBOw.[3]
  • Capital ship watch: Number of games where these units were a major factor in the outcome:
Unit W L
Battlecruiser 1 2
Brood Lord 1 0
Carrier 0 0
Mothership 1 0
