The juggernaut fell in the group stages
Kranich could not make it out of the swiss bracket of the Asia-Pacific Summer Playoffs.
ANALYSIS
Still one of the best players in the APAC region each and every season, Kranich did not have his best result in this tournament. Kranich played well but couldn't make it out the swiss stage of the event. What may have hurt Kranich the most was his Evolve Shaman lineup. The deck is popular enough but ends up being a victim of nearly all of the other popular archetypes in the meta. The choice hurt, but credit other talented players in the region for Kranich's early exit. Kranich's lineup consisted of Jade Druid, Midrange Paladin, Highlander Priest and Evolve Shaman.
