ESL Open Cup #149: ByuN, Clem, MaxPax win

Week #149 was the last week of Open Cups prior to DreamHack Atlanta, but it provided limited clues as to who might play well at the event.

ByuN continued to be an online powerhouse, taking down Solar, Dark, and Cure to win the Korean server cup. However, questions still remain about his ability to go deep in an offline event. Clem was triumphant in Europe, taking down his regional rival HeroMarine for the second week in a row. Finally, MaxPax won the American server cup with impressive wins over ByuN and Solar—unfortunately, the online-only enigma will not be attending DH: Atlanta.
