A Recap of the Round of 8 of the Grand Tour Playoffs
What's happened so far?

Written by @occamslightsaber

In the Northeast section, two Nilla Ninjas, Knuschelbär and iamturk, went head to head in a best of 7 series last Sunday. For those who don’t know, Knuschelbär is a renowned team player from Austria and he is no push-over in 1v1 either. His defensive play style with an emphasis on macro-management often means that his score can snowball rather quickly unless his opponents are always on their toes to stop him. On the other hand, iamturk, hailing from (you guessed it) Turkey, is recognized for his exhaustive micro-management skills and mechanical gameplay, which earned him his title "iambestmechanics". He is also known for his remarkable patience and persistence even against overwhelming odds, to the point that a drawn-out struggle is always anticipated by his opponents.
In the first game, the two players faced off in a German mirror.

Written by @Vinyanyérë

Down by the Southwest, we have two lone cowboys with something to prove. tabben — the 2019 season's poster boy — hops off his saddle after a long trek from Orgrimmar. After claiming a piece most of the Grand Tour's bounties, he's a man with few wants, besides a cool drink from Dirty McGertie's. However, the challenger of high noon, Conquerer999 is in town, and looking for vengeance. The last time these two desperadoes met was in the finals of the Two Towns Tour, a blistering best-of-5 series that left Conquerer with a hole in his hat and a chip on his shoulder after a 3-1 loss to Texas Tabben. One last attempt for vainglory, we have our jabroni's meet for a final showdown, a best-of-7 series in the Grand Tour Playoffs - who will be the first to throw in the towel?
The players started off with one of the classic matchups on a classic map.
