Sky won his match against ToD in the Grand Final in two pretty short and one-sided games. ToD said he played extremely badly, while Sky says ToD was one of his toughest opponents.
- I was really excited that I got to play against them, he says in an interview after the game.
The Grand Final of the WarCraft 3 tournament was between the two international superstars, Sky from World Elite and ToD from 4Kings. Both players having mastered the Human race, the anticipation for a great Human mirror final was great. ToD's team mate Grubby thought that the match would be really close, ending 2-1 either way, but it turned out to be a victory for the Chinese player Sky with 2-0.
- It was a very good match, says Sky when asked to comment on the matches. The first match was played on Twisted Meadows, with both players going Archmage and Pandas, accompanied by Footmen and later on Spellbreakers. Second game was pretty much just like it, with Sky coming out on top.
This is the first time someone in the WarCraft 3 tournament has won the medal twice in a row. This shows once again that China is one of the strongest nations in the world.
Sky tells that he prepared a lot for this, practicing very hard every day. He had a hard time qualifying in China, and he was very excited to face the other players. Sky had no doubt had the hardest road to the grand finals, defeating GoStop, Grubby and ToD. We asked what players he thought were the most difficult in the tournament, and he said Grubby and ToD.
- Not too much, I have played games where I was more nervous, he says.
You could tell that ToD was very disappointed and sad. At the start of the press interview, the photographers asked the two to shake hands, but ToD declined and said that "Do we have to? It is up to us to decide". Afterwards you could see him walk away with tears in his eyes.
GosuGamers wishes ToD and Sky the best of luck in the upcoming events, and hope to see them again next year. Will Sky be able to take the medal again next year?
