At last, all 10 Summer Incups have been played, and with 6 victories for the  Koreans and 4 for  Europe we are now ready to set the last Incup Summer Final on fire. And representing team MYM.Hanbit is, no one else than,   T.MH]Lucifer who, with 3 victories, goes into the finals as a major favourit.

The format of this Final is, unlike the other Incups, double elimination and the prize for an overall win is 500€!

Following 16 players are participating in the Finals:

•   mTw-WinneReseT
•   TeRRoR[FX]
•   BenQ.GeiL.Happy
•   Pentagram.LinKin
•   T.MH]Lucifer
•   4K.Grubby
•   SK.ElakeDuck Replaced by   SK06.Fisch
•   TmG)HomeRunBall
•   play.eNvious
•   Fnatic.Bjarke. Replaced by   Satiini
•   iT-Cherep
•   aLw]RaXoZa
•   SK.HoT
•   Fnatic.SaSe
•   mTw-DIDI8
•   We.Check

Let's have a closer look on some of the favourites:

  T.MH]Lucifer is with 3 Incup win the season the most winning player and is before the finals ranked #2 overall and #3 in Summer season. He have been playing on a constantly high level through out the entire season, and must be considered a top candidat for the win today.



  We.Check was probably the best player through out the Summer season 2005. He has participated in 9 out of 10 Incups and only once finished out of the 1/8 finals. Besides that he has reached the finals 5 times with 2 overall victories and is sitting fat on the #1 spot this season.






  4K.Grubby, need I say more? One of the most winning players in Warcraft 3 TFT. Currently reigning WCG Champion and #1 at the overall Incup ladder. This guy is a serious threat for all the players participating today and is a huge favourite to take the title, like he did in the Spring Season final against   T.MH]Lucifer.





MYM.Hanbit is represented by our Undead star player   T.MH]Lucifer and we will keep you updated on how he, and the rest of the players, performes today.

UPDATES:

  Fnatic.Bjarke is not participating in today's Finals. An explanations for this could be that he feels tired after this weekends WCG Denmark qualifier, which he won after an amazing Final against   T.MH]Wralth.
  Fnatic.Bjarke is now replaced by   Satiini.   SK06.Fish is to replace   SK.ElakeDuck who, like Bjarke, didnt show up.
