Three pairs look interesting. @browery ended the League Stage 9th and @fredkese 24th, so in theory this is a no brainer. However, the total score of the former was 96, while @fredkese scored 119 and simply had bad luck with his opponnents.

Then we have two derby matches. Polish one between @sk1920 and @cezary-io. Also two representatives of East Asia, @itz.inno and @revlat35 will play against one another.
