Dragon may surprise serveral teams...who don't take them seriously. wNv, after losing sakula, i really don't know what to expect from them...btw, i really don't think x30 or MoB are ready for higher level of international tournaments...

안녕, 갓프랙 꼬꼬마 친구들?

this is a chinese tournament

of course there are going to never be any usa teams playing in china since coL stomped the chinese fanboys, also, ESWC in USA got all bad american teams so its only fair for a CHINESE tournament to include their 2 best teams, wNv and DRAGON and we all know how amazing chinese teams are in china

preds:

1) wNV
2) Dragon
3) eSTRO/MYM
4) mTw
5) fnatic
neo is the best cs player ever, if you disagree, you are a scrub.

They are just mad we got the highest medal count. Or maybe they just dont want another crazy chinese guy stabbing an american family, one of the two... anyways i think that coL should really start practicing 1.6 all day everyday and begin the comeback of straight rollin over all teams.

1.)fnatic
2.)mTw
3.)mouseports
4.)eSTRO
5.)wNv

I thinks its a punishment for not sending any American teams because they didnt let Sakula go to the STATE XD
*****************************************...

#6 that's funny because if I remember correctly from ESWC, x3o rolled eSTRO, beat mTw and gave MYM a run for their money

I'm chinese,but i agree to add an American team or a southern American one.
of course,another foreign team will add more cost...............
believe me,DRAGON is not a bad choice.Remember what happen on E-STAR?
they just haven't a good chance to show what they can do.
whatever,the party between the ASIAN TEAMS AND WESTERN TEAMS is definitely expectable.
LET'S SHOW OUR WISHES TO EVERY TEAM ON WEG2008
see you in HANGZHOU,guys............
