WEG groups revealed

china, grubby, moon, weg

WEG 2008 administration committee releases the group drawings, two weeks before the tournament.

World E-Sports Games is an all-star tournament comprising eight of the best Warcraft III players, across Europe and Asia.

These eight players will be gathered together fighting for the $33,000 prize money.

Players are divided into two groups where Group B can be easily tagged the Group of Death, convencing Grubby, Moon, Sky and WhO in one group prmising exciting battles.

Group A:

Ukraine Nightelves HoT
China Human Infi
Korea, South Orc Lyn
France Human ToD

Group B:

Korea, South Nightelves Moon
Orc WhO
Netherlands Orc Grubby
China Human Sky

Absence of the players like Korea, South Lucifer, FoV, China TeD and Russian Fede- Happy as top-notch Undeads, is quite noticable among the names.

The tournament will be held from October 26th to November 1st in Hangzhou, China.

Yeah but being on blizzcon and winning it with a much more higher prize is better. Anyway not that the ones who qualified on blizzcon didnt deserve em, but beating some of the "stars" participating on WEG, you have to give them credit for that :)

On a fan's point of view yeah maybe. For players, lets just say it would have been better for them if they could have joined both non-star studded Blizzcon and star studded WEG, but cant always have em both. Sometimes I get tired of seeing old same faces on a tour. Blizzcon with a mix of stars and underdogs, with upsets, gives spice to the tour. Who knows, maybe some of the participants in blizzcon will join the list of "stars".

sky, moon and tod failed to qualify, that's it. I prefer blizzcon as the most deserving player (those who earned their ticket) attend. WEM is great too but if a qualifier was held, i'm pretty sure some big names wouldn't be there.

performance > fame

That's what im saying. Although I thought WEG has qualifiers no?

i know, my reply was for koozin.

No weg's attendance is solely based on invitations

In the real world, fame > all. Good performance make you famous. Being famous makes you good in everyone's eyes. Being good in everyone's eyes makes you good in your own eyes, and finally, having that kind of confidence surely affects your entire performance overall, not to mention the feeling of having to answer to hundred's of fans with good games and, specially, wins. Normal people crumble under that kind of pressure. Really genious players use it for their advantage. Aaaaand, perhaps some of the big names would not be there, but that would be just because some other big name is (moon got beaten by lyn and remind in blizzcon qualifier, for example). Gotta face facts, in this game, big names are just better than nonames (the fact it's a job, etc makes all the difference imho), upsets like lucifron's at Blizzcon are one in a hundred events. www.groovy-gaming.com

group 2 is really a Death-group. I hope sky can do well in this tournament !!

(last month) #14 Mirhi

Even though Group B is really hard, don't act like Group A is easier or something, haha. Infi Lyn ToD HoT is no cakewalk. Even though HoT hasn't been as great as he was last year, Infi and Lyn have been really good in 2008.

no Undead. But will be a very fun tournament to watch! :D

Looks like Lyn should win this tournament. He plays Infi on EI, Hot on SV and Tod on TR.

Guess this tournament is going to go to orcs (again) so no point in really getting excited about it. Proves that blizzard really needs to work on the balance........
