Of course our SEA boys will be playing in this too so lets wish them the best. Here is what they had to say after meeting Blizzard.

Caviar Napoleon "Stellar" Marquises-Acampado (formerly "EnDerr")

Where are you from and how did you get into StarCraft II?
A: I joined StarCraft II because of my friend "BLaZeR" and my older brother "Sonnet".

Q: How do you think you’ll finish in the Asia Finals?
A: A Korean will win the tournament. I think I'll be eliminated in the first round.

Q: Is there anything you’d like to say to people in your home country cheering you on?
A: Thank you for always supporting every player that represents our country. I promise to do my best! GG GLHF!

EnDerr plays Warcraft 3 superstar

Infi

in the first round. Infi is currently practising both games as Warcraft 3 is still popular in China. If he wins he faces

Liquid`Hero

in round 2.

Marcus "Revenant" Tan Yin Sik

Where are you from and how did you get into StarCraft II?
A: Hi. I'm from Singapore. I started Starcraft II as a transition from Warcraft III. Starcraft II absorbed much of that community upon its release.

Q: How do you think you’ll finish in the Asia Finals?
A: I don't think I will be able to perform too well, because I stopped playing after WCS Singapore in anticipation of enlisting into National Service, only to have it deferred. Also, with 29 Korean, Taiwan and China pro gamers in the Asia Finals, even reaching top 16 may be hard. I'll try to do the best I can and not let Singapore and SEA down.

Q: Is there anything you’d like to say to people in your home country cheering you on?
A: Keep cheering me on and I'll try my best to not let you guys down and try to make the games as entertaining as possible!

Revenant plays Starcraft 1 legend

F91

in the first round. A very skilled but now low profile Zerg not to be underestimated as he made it out of his group of death with GLaDe @ WCG last year, over Sen, Socke and others. If Revenant wins he moves on to play Dual Royal Roader

SKT.Rain

in round 2.

Thanapol "RedArchon" Kuachat

Where are you from and how did you get into StarCraft II?
-_-???

Q: How do you think you’ll finish in the Asia Finals?
o_O???

Q: Is there anything you’d like to say to people in your home country cheering you on?
"Me No No English! O_O"

RedArchon is going to 2 rax

Curious

out in round 1, and then hes going to give

Parting

a new parting in round 2. GL Thanapol!

Have faith!
