The initial bracket draw for Super Tournament 3 suggested the round-of-sixteen might be full of one-sided matches, but several of the favorites ended up having to grit it out against spirited efforts from the underdogs. Cure, Trap, and Zoun all had to come back from 0-2 deficits, reverse-sweeping ByuN, RagnaroK, and Ryung, respectively. Even Dark had to play all five maps against Creator, though he wasn’t put in the dramatic situation of being down 0-2. Interestingly enough, the underdogs didn’t have to rely too heavily on cheeses or all-ins to take their maps, showing solid all-around macro play.
The one player who did manage to pull off the upset was herO, who won his first offline match since returning from the military by defeating Zest 3-1. Not surprisingly, herO utilized Blink-Stalkers heavily in his victory, showing that he’s still a master at using his signature unit (VOD).
The Super Tournament will continue on Monday, Nov 29 8:00am GMT (GMT+00:00) with the quarterfinal matches.

Rogue and Dark look like Apollo Creed and Rocky going against each other. Just ready to kill each other at all times.
Solar checks under his bed for Maru at night before he goes to sleep.
