Mouse-keyboard Archon FFA[edit]
3 casters joined 5 finalists in a Mouse-keyboard Archon 1v1v1v1 Free for All showmatch, where within each archon team, one player uses the keyboard, while the other controls the mouse. The archon teams were selected by the tournament hosts to maximize the language barrier. The showmatch took place between the semifinals and grand finals, and was casted by Day9 and Husky.
