Starcraft 2 will take a new shape in 2013 for ACL with the implementation of a pro players corner as well as various other point based incentives which were not available in 2012. Featuring some of the best players of Australia and New Zealand including arguably Australia's biggest talent in GAMECOM Nv mOOnGLaDe, along with New Zealand's superstar Frenetic Array Petraeus, earning those valuable ACL points was never going to be easy.
First and second round games saw many expected wins but also a number of upsets. Frenetic Array Iaguz went into the tournament seeded 4th, qualifying him for a second round birth. Evidently his first match of the day would be none other than KingKong. Going into the set to many as the underdog, Iaguz dropped the first map on Ohana unable to hold an infestor and roach timing. Moving into the second map on Entombed Valley Iaguz didn't falter showcasing some amazing triple pronged attacks and shredding through KingKong's forces.
