suiGeneris wins WCG.ie
With the WCG finals nearing ever closer and closer we are slowly finding out who the participants from each country will be; today saw the finals for the first ever WCG Ireland and for once the number one seeds at a WCG event will not be packing there bags ready for Italy... The event comprised of the 7 best Irish teams today and it turned out to be quite an event to watch; every team did there bit to show off the skills the Irish community has to offer and nobody disappointed, the only problem was... everybody knew it was a 2-horse race before it even began...
The two top teams in Ireland today are known around the UK and somewhat world-wide, these are
wink and
suiGeneris; and when the day dawned it was 99% certain in everyone's mind that one of these two teams would be taking home the grand prize, and unsurprisingly enough, that's exactly hat happened... The final saw
Wink take on
suiGeneris with a place in the WCG finals on the line,
suiGeneris coming from the lower-bracket finals needed to take two maps while
Wink who had made there way through the upper-bracket needed just the one. The first map played was de_nuke,
suiGeneris started strongly and managed to take the first map 16-12; this seemed to really shock the favourites
Wink who had simply expected to pick-up the win over
suiGeneris there and then. This took the game into a second map on de_train; still obviously shaken from the first map loss
Wink never looked right and didn't managed to settle into there strats properly,
suiGeneris took advantage of this and managed to take the 2nd map 16-4. This means that
suiGeneris will be going to Italy to represent Ireland at the World Cyber Games finals later this year.
Ireland are in group D of the WCG finals and there group looks like this:
Estonia / H2k.Thermaltake
Finland / hoorai
Hungary
Ireland / suiGeneris
Japan
Moldova
Switzerland
It will be interesting to see how the relatively unknown Irish team
suiGeneris do against world power-houses such as
hoorai at the WCG event, we look forward to seeing all of the action and wish them the very best of luck in there quest for the WCG title.
