To begin with it wasn't clear which games were to be played, so many countries picked players that were overall good, in order to compete in the case the game was ex. FIFA, Need for Speed etc. which is why some players are not known in the WC3 communities. This is why eSport Danmark ex. made a deal with DBG (Danmarks Bedste Gamer).

We would very much like to get in contact with WC3 players from DK, as this is most likely not the last time WC3 is played in IeSF :-)
