The time has come for our third IGN Pro League Fight Club! This is a weekly king of the hill showmatch series. Basically, there will be a 1 vs. 1 best of 9 showmatch each and every week, where the winner will earn a $500 prize and a $100 bounty on their head. For example, if a player wins three weeks in a row they will have earned $1,500 and a $300 bounty. If a NEW challenger defeats him, they will earn $500 for the showmatch, take the $300 bounty home, and have a new $100 bounty placed on their head for each week that they win. (Similar to IPL Team Arena, but without the teams!)
When: Sunday, Dec 04 1:00am GMT (GMT+00:00) (we will also have a European re-broadcast as usual at Sunday, Dec 04 5:30pm GMT (GMT+00:00))
The competitors of IPL Fight Club 3 are two titans of their respective races. Liquid`Sheth has earned the "First Blood" achievement by knocking off White-Ra in Fight Club 1 and began a streak with his victory over SlayerS`Ryung in Fight Club 2. RGN.KiWiKaKi has remained a top seed for Major League Gaming since it began and recently earned some more notoriety from his incredible game against Mill.Stephano at IPL 3 in Atlantic City featuring perfect mothership play and decision making. Will KiWiKaKi have what it takes to topple Sheth and claim the $500 prize and $200 bounty?!

I love you IGN keep putting out this great weekly content thank you
|
Sheths defintely got this. He's been playing real well lately. Prediction: 5-2 Sheth
|
interesting matchup kiwi always delivering some entertaining games i think sheth will take it
|
Kiwi might be able to pull one or two games with his unique tactics, but given this is Sheth best matchup expect a 5-0.

Umm..it's a best of 9. I would say 5-2 or 5-3 Sheth. Kiwikaki is too good in my opinion to lose 5 straight games.
|
Does Kiwi still mostly do FFE -> 2 gate zealot -> fast third in PvZ? Last time I watched him he lost to early roaches a lot with that, and Sheth loves early roaches.
|
|
Go KiWiKaKi! But plz don't keep using your 2 gate zealot FFE each game if Sheth is beating it!

Probably a 5 - 1 But seriously, Kiwi is has a 36 percent win rate against Sheth.
|
Hmm.. KiWi might take a game, but I do believe Sheth will take this pretty ez.. He seem to play so good atm! ^^
|
Sheth will probably win, but Kiwi will not give him an easy time, 5-3 Sheth-Kiwi probably but maybe 5-4 upset (imo) Kiwi-Sheth.
|
This is awesome! I think Sheth has a great shot at taking this series but I think it's going to be close. IGN keeps producing primo content all the time. I like.
|
|
i love kiwi for his mad builds, but sheth has this... 5-3!
|
Sheth 5-3 IMO. I hope he can continue his streak!
|
Go Sheth! Liquid fighting!
|
|
Score line would be 5-3 or 5-4. Close games all the way. I believe it could go either way but go KIWIKAKI!
|
Gah I don't know who I want to win, but I predict Sheth taking it 5-4.
|
I think 5-2 or 5-3 for Sheth. Kiwi can definitely take games with some weird shit, but I don't think he can manage to keep it up for a Bo9
|
I, too, shall be rooting for Sheth in this one.
|
|
hopefully KiWi wins but Sheth had his number lately so my head tells me he's gonna win 5-3
|
I think it'll be fairly close, with Sheth having maybe a slight edge. I honestly think KiWiKaKi is really underrated; even if he's not quite up to par with Sheth's PvZ, he's pretty close.
|
Depending on whe this is played, sheth should win 5-3 if it is recent. Kiwi had poker coming up iirc.
|
|
Congratulations to Liquid`Sheth, winning $500 for his 5-3 victory over WhiteRa! Congratulations to Liquid`Sheth winning 5-2 over Slayers`Ryung and earning another $500!
The results speak for themselves ladies and gentlemen. 5-1. Thanks for helping Sheth make a little change Kiwi, so manner of you!
|
Kiwi is awesome but Sheth's best matchup and he is playing even better than usual? I don't see how Sheth loses, but hey you never know I guess.
|
|
Kiwikaki cant keep it up and Sheth takes it 5-1.
|
|
Sheth got this, he has sick ZvP.
|
Kiwi is like my favorite player and it really hurts me to see him in such a slump since ROOT disbanded.. He's not playing half what he was before :-/ Rooting for him but i really don't see Sheth losing this.
|
I think the entertainment value of the games will be pretty good.

wow, seeing the mad scientist there!
|

Nice attack there by Kiwi, that cannon rush really did some heavy damage to Sheth
|
Anyone else think Painuser looks like his eyes are half closed? Maybe its the Angle of the camera with his glasses or maybe his eyes are half closed but it kinda looks weird, or is it just me?
|
Wow, singing Stayin' Alive? Painuser and HD make me embarrassed to watch Starcraft with other people around.

So why didnt you just watch it then? instead of looking in a thread of an all ready played game?

There were problems airing then so people weren't sure what was going on, plus a lot of us can't watch it when it airs anyway.

Posters should have spoilered.
