ESWC Masters in Paris - Blog 2

The ESWC Masters was an exciting event for MYM who scored two Gold titles - MYM]Moon in Warcraft III and MYM.Ladies in CS! I was at the CS tournament area twice to watch our girls play. But I wasn't there during the finals, I heard that everyone was cheering so hard after MYM.Ladies defeated SK.Ladies. Well played girls! Our Dota team played well too I think, they got into the semi-finals.

For Warcraft III TFT, MYM]Moon and MYM]Grubby will be playing in the ESWC Grand Finals in San Jose, USA on the 25th - 28th August.

 

And now, it's pictures time!

Me and PGS.Knoff (now known as nGize.Knoff).

 

PGS.LiiLD.C (now known as nGize.LiiLD.C). I went for lunch with Knoff and LiiLD.C at 3 plus in the afternoon and found a lot of restaurants were closed during the mid day! We forgot that it's common in France for a lot of restaurants to only open for lunch, close for a few hours and then open again for dinner. Eg. 10.30am - 2.30pm and 7pm - 10.30pm.

 

MYM.PMS.Rinoa, me and PMS.Furryfish (They look so sweet here! Furryfish is also my friend from Singapore).

 

Craven from Readmore.de doing an extensive interview with Grubby.

(Note: Grubby is wearing Adidas sports shirt, Adidas sports pants and Adidas sports shoes.)

 

Grubby: "Elect me as the Prime Minister and I will make Warcraft III a compulsory subject in all schools!"

 

Grubby: "Those top in their Warcraft III class will have a shot to join the National Warcraft III Team and play for their country. And of course they will be well-paid."

 

Grubby: "I will make Warcraft III as big a sport as tennis."

 

Craven: "Will you keep your promise if I vote for you?"

 

Lucifer at lunch.

 

Fov plays while Moon watches.

 

Who, the upcoming Orc player. Who is the upcoming Orc player? Yes, Who is!

 

Who's face looks a little pale. And sometimes his eyebrows are hidden behind his hair.

 

ToD played both ESWC Masters and ESWC France qualifiers at the event venue.

 

Lucifer has an evil grin as he plotted some plan to nuke the enemy's hero.

 

FoV playing excitedly.

 

Grubby likes his new team wear.

 

HoT lost in the quarter finals, same as Grubby, Lyn and Reign.

 

Lucifer the superstar signs autographs! ;)

 

Lucifer and the Who..?

 

Lucifer and the Who..?

 

The PES tournament on stage is so cool! The contestants sit comfortably on a leather couch while playing games, while the shoutcaster casts the game to a big audience on a big screen.

 

The MYM Dota Team!

 

They got into the semi-finals. I wanted to say hello, but decided against it, because it wasn't the best time, they looked sad after losing in the semi-finals. Hopefully they have better luck next time.

 

Nevertheless, they played well.

 

Les Seules - The new MYM.Ladies CS team!

 

Their pretty coach - Aurora, is - MaDFroG's (Warcraft III legend) ex-girlfriend.

 

Me with PMS girls again. ^^

 

DayNightAbuse(DNA) with Grubby.

 

DayNightAbuse(DNA), together with Grubby, sits amongst the audience and watch Moon play in the finals.

 

Me and the trophy holder, Moon.

 

Losemann: "Where you want eat? You choice, we go."

 

Grubby: "Not Korean restaurant again please"

 

Moon takes a rest.

 

LiiLD.C looking like a soccer star! :)

 

LiiLD.C and Moon during lunch.

 

LiiLD.C and Moon.

 

After lunch, we took the metro to go to an internet cafe.

 

Grubby shares his dreams of being THE HULK! (Grubby originally auditioned for the Incredible Hulk, but decided they'd need too much photoshopping skills to remove Grubby's excess muscle tissue to make him look enough like the Hulk. Original quote from Grubby.)

 

Grubby can speak some French, so he helps to ask for directions.

 

Knoff happily getting a tan.

 

FoV also joined us in the internet cafe.

 

Grubby's eye was swollen from crying. He forgot he had handled spicy red peppers with his fingers, thus he was in pain when he rubbed his eyes.

 

Knoff obsing Grubby, and inspired to be like him.

 

That's the end of this picture blog. Hope you enjoyed it. For those who had not watched Grubby's interview - Click HERE. Grubby shares his thoughts about ESWC, new patch and more!

how old is DNA?

He looks very young. Probably I would guess 16.

But he had been on many WCGs, so maybe he is older than he looks. Maybe 18 or 20?
