ESWC applicant list increase

18-5-2010 12:08

The Electronic Sports World Cup has published an interim, compiled list of teams which have applied for an invite to the finals.

Just last week the ESWC organization made it possible for teams wishing to attend the ESWC 2010 event to fill in an application. Not surprisingly, several teams were quick to sign up.

As qualifiers have not been announced in desired countries, such as the United States, Germany and Denmark, it is believed that numerous teams will make it to the finals through the applicant form.

Up to now, the ESWC has published the list containing 63 teams, as seen below.

crashers	Team LZ	DarkPassage	Canibais Gaming
Newave	K1ck	Archaic	FireGamers
Equiped	MiSERY	Andre Saraiva	Panic-Gaming
dakarma	KaoS	Online-Kingdom	eLetronic Minds
TEAM FDNL	Q8 Team	New Generation	Evil Geniuses
Ultimo	K29	To Be Announced	1st Generation
Beskmarg	united5	High Rollers	Team Artyk
Yperano	Shadows	Delinquent Habits	alchemists
Synergy	mTw	freSh-eSports	Team Moldova
seven	Playzone	WeMade FOX	InfernoGaming
r4pe	T.Y.T	Ruben calado	GoldenGlory
evilSide	Art of War	Mop the floor with	Buksna team
compLexity	HEADSHOTBG	Antwerp Aces	Phantoms
eXelon	aNimus	Gamewise	CSBROS
teamteam	Martin Gerchev	Choudhry Omar Saghir	NecroRaisers
Apollons	LedPC	ENTiTY

The sign-up process lasts until the 31st of May, and it is expected that several more teams will have found their way to the list. Teams that have not signed up yet are still able to do so at the ESWC's official website.

alchemists lineup?

If you follow the link, you will also be able to check out their lineups. alchemists is the Expert-Gaming lineup we announced earlier. There's a dispute going on regading the tickets.

The ESWC will pay for accommodation; hotel, food, license. The trip itself must be covered on their own behalf.

2010-05-18 13:17

I think from this huge list ESWC will only select one team from each country, meaning for example that altought there's like 6/7 teams from Brazil there will only be one invited team. With that in account im thinking: WeMadeFOX, mTw.dk, FireGamers, Playzone.fi, K1ck, Evil Geniuses, Online-Kingdom and who ever applies from Germany being that n! or attax probably.

Also i think it would be completely ridiculous if ESWC doesn't select the teams i just said. Because they are clearly the teams with better results on both national and international events and they seem (don't know about the economic situation of a lot of teams here) to be the teams with better organizations ergo the ones who can afford the travel arrangements for their players.

ESWC was always a multi-nations tournament. Some good teams, world wide, are not top teams in international scene. This list is like a reminder of world best teams, not top teams. For that type of tours - top teams tours - you have Arbalet, GameGune, Dreamhack, KODE5 etc etc. This challenge around the world made ESWC. In my point of view.

If its only 8 teams (which i think it is) then these would probably be by far the best choices: 1. mTw.int (zonic, ave, sunde, trace, minet) 2. Firegamers (bit1, FalleN, fnx, nak, bruno1) 3. WeMade FOX (solo, termi, bail, glow, peri) 4. Team EG (lurppis, fRoD, Storm, n0thing, goodfornothing) 5. PlayZone Gaming (BASiC, danzer, Freon, jigetus, VIDI) 6. compLexity (dboorN, Xp3, evolution, herotowN, thoMz) 7. K1ck eSports Club (foxj, coachi, SHOUW, axoN, mutt) 8. Canibais Gaming (prd, spacca, chucky, BTT*, mkr) Then with maybe a couple other teams as possibilities like: - Alchemists Unleashed (KF3, OmeN, zEn, PAH, FNX) - LedPC e-Sports Club (MusambaN1, sioKR, xhiroz, Kairi, FeldmaN) - Loaded (steno, hostile, djibouti, Adrenaline, PhamtastiK) Hopefully both top brazilian teams (FireGamers & Canibais Gaming) get chosen, been too long since we've seen them in tournaments and i think FireGamers could easily be one of the best teams in the world.
