MLG Columbus

MLG Columbus is unfortunately coming to a close today. We saw competitors from all over the world come to compete for a cash prize in games such as HALO, Black Ops, but most importantly, Starcraft 2!

We’ve seen some great games and great commentators like Sean ‘Day9’ Plott, Nick ‘Tasteless’ Plott and Daniel ‘Artosis’ Stemkoski. If you missed any of the awesome Starcraft 2 streams or if you just want to see who won you can click the link below.

The epicness of Idra

The popular Zerg player Idra is known for his "bm" and rage quitting in games when he loses, without offering a 'gg' to his opponent.
In this MLG, however, he quits.. while he was WINNING?!! A self-explanatory must-watch!

mOOnGLaDe dominating the SEA scene

FXOm00nGLaDe has been absolutely bulldozing through any SEA tournament he decides to take part in.
After already taking the ESL title last week, Glade took this week's ESL tournament in a Finals rematch from last week against a top SEA Zerg, inF.

We also saw Glade go undefeated throughout the entire Masters Cup, taking out one Beethoven in the semi-finals 2-0 and overcoming top Thailand player NeoRedArchon 3-0 in the finals to take home the $145 first place prize and all the bragging rights he could ever wish for!

Will Glade dominance over the region's tournaments continue? Or will someone finally figure out how to knock him off his throne?
