==Tournament summary== | |||
{{Sm|SHADIC}}'s run in the group stage was particularly notable, as despite being the 12th seed, he is the only one with #2 seed {{Sm|Miya|p=Honshu}} to win all of his round robin matches, upsetting #5 seed {{Sm|Dabuz}} 3-2 and #4 seed {{Sm|Shuton}} (Upset factor 3) 3-1. Conversely, the first seed {{Sm|Zomba}} underperformed as he lost all of his pools matches, against #16 seed {{Sm|Peabnut}} (UF 7, the biggest of the tournament), #9 seed {{Sm|Aaron}} (UF 6) and #8 seed {{Sm|Asimo}} (UF 5), all in game 4 sets. The other notable upset during group phase was #14 seed {{Sm|BeastModePaul}} win over #3 seed {{Sm|Light}} in a close game 5 set (UF 5).<br> | |||
