The time has come for our eighteenth 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: May 19 2012 15:00 PDT[local] (we will also have a European re-broadcast as usual at May 20 2012 10:30 PDT)
Last week, Polt was unable to play and defend his throne, so we had an interim match with Socke and SjoW. SjoW came from a 4 game deficit to come back and win 5-4, so this week our two champions will battle it out to see who truly deserves this top spot!

| Polt will win, obviously, but we'll hopefully see some good games. |

| I expect Polt to win 5-2. Last time they met, Polt won 2-0, so the consistency is somewhat in Polt's favor, and the skill gap is fairly wide. Too bad we couldn't get DRG vs Polt though. Last edit: 2012-05-18 06:51:02 |

Originally it was going to be the winner of Socke and SjoW to play the winner of Polt and DongRaeGu, but DongRaeGu didn't want to play cross server (which he might have to if he won and then faced a foreigner) so he forfeited.
Anyhow, I think Polt will win this but I think SjoW will give a few surprises. I am predicting SjoW takes at least one game. |

Polt 5-0.
Too bad no DRG/Polt. With Polt's newly upgraded TvZ and his series vs. DRG at MLG, it would have been extremely close. |

Sad they couldn'( get DRG. I'm sorry for Sjow but he don't really compete in the same level as Polt do. |

It was on due to MLG Arena and during a weekend with the GSL Finals, MLG Arena and Proleague Opening. And it was a 5-0 squash. |
