World of Warcraft: EM III Tournament, no RNG

The EM III WoW Euro Finals have some interesting rule changes.
With the EM Euro Finals getting underway in Hanover, Germany, there are some very interesting rules the tournament organizers decided to add.

First, there are no RNG stun talents allowed to be specced into. Some of the more popular talents that this will effect is Hunter "Explosive Shot", Mage "Impact Stun", Priests "Blackouts", etc. This added rule alone will make it very interesting to see if we spectate the powerful Paladin/Hunter/DK lineup, or if teams will run the less popular ones.

Another change the EM tournament organizers decided to make was removing the new WOTLK arena maps, which include Ring of Valor and Dalaran Sewers. There has been much complaint from the WoW community on these two maps because of the poor mechanics and bugging within.

With these changes, the tournament is turning out to be even more appealing to those who thought it was going to be the typical lineups. I am sure we will see plenty of surprises with this tournament, and if these changes are liked, other tournaments may follow.

Stay tuned to GotFrag to see how it plays out.
