The legacy continues. The main event of one of the longest running international esports events has already begun and despite having a drastically reduced number of countries holding qualifiers the tournament is still held in high regard by many.

With a line-up of games I can only describe as strangely redundant, the two most recent iterations of Blizzard's RTS Warcraft 3 and Starcraft 2 are in attendance along with the Warcraft 3 powered DOTA All Stars and it's modern Source engine powered iteration DOTA 2. Filling out the line-up is Crossfire, a freemium team based shooter in the vein of Counter-Strike along with Counter Strike: Online, a Nexon published game of a similar linage.

Good on him then, cannon rushing at that level is actually quite hard to do. Props to him, hopefully he can beat parting.

why was there no SEA qualifiers for this WCG? :S

[syfSoundwave]

"Is this guy ******* serious?" PartinG chuckled to himself as he saw the strategy CombatEX was employing. A probe was in PartinG's base, attempting to wall himself in with pylons behind his mineral line. The strategy was quickly blocked however, by PartinG's good reactions and correct response.

CombatEX sighed, as he left the game with no gg. How could this EZ scrub have possibly blocked his patented cannon rush? CombatEX racked his brain, thinking of the appropriate response to such a scenario. What did one do, when the cannon rush failed? CombatEX was in trouble, he realized. Cannon rushing was the only strategy he knew.

Except. Except for one more. CombatEX's face lit up as he almost jumped for joy out of his chair. "Of course!" CombatEX exclaimed. "THE 4 GATE! I'M GONNA EZ THIS SCRUB ****!"

As game 2 began on Daybreak, PartinG sent his probe to CombatEX's base to see 4 warpgates finished. PartinG was unable to believe what he was seeing and in one massive chuckle, all air left his lungs and PartinG fell out of his chair. PartinG rolled around on the floor, laughing hysterically. "Oh. My. God. This guy. This ******* guy." he said to himself. PartinG struggled to get back into his seat, but the laughter was just too much. "****, I can't micro! I'm gonna lose to a ******* 4 gate from some random Canadian!" A new wave of laughter hit PartinG as he typed in GG and left the game.

Upon seeing the GG, CombatEX jumped out of his seat and threw his headset on the table. He ran up to PartinG and gave him words of wisdom: "EZ EZ SCRUB EZ EZ U MAD SON?"

CombatEX sat back down and readied himself for Game 3. The map was Cloud Kingdom. He decided he would play the ultimate mind games and go back to the cannon rush. He'll never expect it a second time! CombatEX thought to himself.

It didn't work.

CombatEX left with no GG. A single tear fell from his eyes as he sat in disbelief.

"But this guy is a scrub! I'm CombatEX, son! I said I was gonna EZ him! How can this be? Am I...not as good as I think I am? Should I use this opportunity to turn over a new leaf and start anew? Should I try and redeem myself to Team Liquid?"

CombatEX pondered in silence for a good few minutes, before deciding on his course of action.

"NAH **** THAT! EZ EZ EZ EZ EZ SON!" CombatEX yelled to the heavens.

Quick Comments

Zealo:

(it was a joke)

[PulSe]

Dissapointed that CombatEX couldn't beat PartinG. On a side note, if he had, would that have made him the best player in the world as PartinG won BWC?

Quick Comments

	Bash:	no
	syfSoundwave:	NO
