I still thought they were qualified, but oh well.

2013-10-16 22:14

expected.

Shit place though

2013-10-16 16:19

why is that?

2013-10-16 16:41

the stands are really poorly placed, you can't really their screens and the players unless you're the first to arrive. I remember last year, Nip's stand was way too far from the spectators, same for ESC. Only Stephano when he played in the final bracket, navi.dota, dignitas and VG were close. (I'm talking about match during the groupstages ofc, the stage itself is normal). Stands like at DH are way better for example.

When will the 2 French teams be announced?

i would prefer a chinese team instad of an african shit team like c3 (ive played against them on MM and i was laughing and im a noob in csgo :P). and a brazilian team would be better. i hope that the list for dreamhack will be 10x times better

2013-10-16 16:37

I would be hypocrite if I said that I disagree with you, but lets imagine ourselves in their position. Being in ESWC would be a tremendous experience for them or even for some of us.

2013-10-16 18:17

some of us had that experience
