By: Gotfrag Announcements - Published October 15, 2007 at 1:44 PM EDT - Writer Archive
The Intel Extreme Masters Los Angeles qualifier is just days away with some of the Worlds best competitors competing to qualify for the $285,000 USD main event.
Ten of the World's best Counter-Strike teams and Warcraft III players have been invited and will attend the Intel Extreme Masters LA Global Challenge this weekend at E For All. These teams will battle for a large cash prize purse along with a shot at qualifying for the Extreme Masters II Finals.

The Extreme Masters will also be holding a pre-qualifier tournament on Thursday where the two finalists for both CS and WC3 will qualify for the main qualifier on Friday through Sunday. From there, the top two non-European finishers of the LA Global Challenge will qualify for the Extreme Masters. Even though European competitors are not eligible to qualify for the main Extreme Masters event, they are still able to win the large cash prizes.

Today we can announce the complete list of participants of Intelฎ Extreme Masters Los Angeles. From 18th until 21st of October these players and teams will compete against each other in the Los Angeles Convention Center. 65,000 US-Dollar prize money and two non-European Intelฎ Extreme Masters II slots are waiting!

NoA can't go there so it will be emuLate but they can't too because they lost a lot of schooldays since WCG don't forget that they're not professional players but students (one of the reason of the last place in kode5 qualifer..but they suck online:p)

I'll cheer for MIBR, but I think they'll get rolled.
They are not ready yet.
Even thou btt is out (and he was the only one not really playing well) and bit is in, I still think they'll struggle.

although its good that most of the top teams are attending for the prize. its disappointing to see only 4 American cs teams able to participate in the event. after all this is a qualifier for the main tournament, so y not allow more us teams :S
