Fnatic, MiBR, eSTRO, and X7-Hacker were all invited to compete in the inaugural e-Sports festival known as e-Stars in Seoul Korea. Although the field is small, the prize money is quite large as the top spot takes home an impressive $25,000.

Representing Sweden, Fnatic is coming fresh off of a scorching performance in Paris, France at the ESWC World Finals. MiBR, also on top of their game lately will be bringing a little bit of South American flavor to this event. China's X7-Hacker will be alongside Korea's eSTRO to play for the host continent. This is such a highly skilled field that there will almost undoubtedly be an upset with most matches being very close. Fnatic has to be the favorite skill wise as we take a look at the clans, however eSTRO will have the home crowd backing.

The tournament structure features a standard round robin first stage that will decide the two teams that progress to the finals.

1. Sweden

This is going to be great. Go cogu and fnx, go solo. Go f0rest. Go everyone.

WHERES TURMOIL

f0restttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt...

now go home and get your fucking shinebox!

omg where's nak? MiBR is playing with a stand-in =/ anyway, I'm cheering for you guys :)

wait where is nak? who is chataum??

fnatic or mibr will win

HI!

not sure if mibr will do so well, since they are using a stand-in, my bets on maybe one of the Asian teams seeing as how the tournaments in asia + fnatic usually ends up making it to the finals in a tournament in asia and usually blow it in the finals. But hopefully fnatic can break it ^^

oh god

in addition to brazillians whining about chinese commentators(yeah i realize it's korea) they're going to be whining about real starting 5 ;[

nak??????
chataum what?�?�?�

#25 they always do

Asian teams really put up a fight at home, but it looks like fnatic from here.
25 large is pretty damn impressive.

#8 i don't think you realize how different is to play with a stand-in instead of the starting 5, specially when nak is the one being replaced. Maybe it doesn't affect your team (if you have one), but on this level, teamplay is what takes a team to the championship. So before you start throwing your crap over brazilians fanboys, think for a second. That comment would be made if any of the other teams were with a stand-in. Too bad that's mibr.

Predictions

1-fnatic
2-hacker
3-estro
4-mibr

Just to add, if i'm not wrong, chataum used to play for Revoltz a long time ago, but nowadays he's the manager i think.

Why don't they use jimmy, their coach? (ex-g3x,cubesports) i think he would fit better, since he is the COACH. O well... whatever

1.fnatic
and the rest

GO fnatic FTW !

#37
ur wrong, chataum always was a manager, since the times of redLaw!

nak will play instead chataum... it was only the editor/writter mistake

and he lived happily ever after

go mibr!

brazilian style ROCKS!

[<o>]

GO BRAZIL . . . . GO Mibr!!!!

=D

;D nkDEE !

For idiots who want weep because their favorite teams aren't there, I will translate this sentence "Fnatic, MiBR, eSTRO, and X7-Hacker were all invited to compete in the inaugural e-Sports festival known as e-Stars in Seoul Korea."

Here you go:
Your favourite team hasn't been invited because they invited other teams and there are only four spots to fill. Clear?
