http://war3.replays.net/page/20120618/1695666.html For the China Wildcard brackets. Fly and Sky were seeded, while Infi, TH000, and JN qualify for the finals of the qualifiers. Not sure how many people they are sending to WCG out of these five though, in the end. (Fly is going to have a blast though. So many HUs.) If Korea holds a qualifier (finger's crossed, I haven't heard anything about it yet), I wonder if Moon will give it a go. | ||

I haven't heard of anything from Korea's side, but I assume it'll happen, since they have quite a few good War3 players still playing, and it'd be borderline insane not to let Lyn play for them. http://war3.replays.net/page/20120618/1695666.html For the China Wildcard brackets.

Speaking of fly and human players , it seems (to me at least) like after all this time he finally figured out how to beat the t2 tower rush for good. I saw a few casts on SBK's channel recently, fly 2-0 vs infi , both times infi did the t2 tower rush , and fly did something outstanding in my opinion , he went for serpent wards on his SH with a preemptive tower located in a godly position for defense , both times. I hope this WCG proves my point. | ||

Also, keep in mind that Infi's somewhat rusty with his play lately. (Him and Sky both, eh.) Fly did lose to TH000 recently too. We'll see when they play each other again. I think TH000 should be used as the litmus test these days; his HvO has been on a roll lately. Lyn's been having such a hard time against HU lately, lol. + Show Spoiler + Lost 2-3 to JN at SW7, lost 2-3 to TH000 at AWC, lost 0-3 to TH000 at G-League like two days ago. Poor guy. | ||

http://w3g.replays.net/doc/cn/2012-8-7/13443757354062513787.html (Just off top of my head.) There are also a lot of games in the G-League where he went FS first (esp. vs. HU), but replays aren't released for those yet. Check most of the games out here: http://www.youtube.com/user/videoLJS. I feel like I see FS first at least once in every set he's played recently against HU. | ||

Also, AWC team games are happening in like one or two days: Team KR (Lyn, FoCuS, ReMinD, Lawliet) vs. Team China (TH000, JN, Yumiko, Fly). Thoughts/bets? :D | ||

Where you see "使用地图：[mapname]" ... click the greyed-out button next to it. It should extend to "下载 请按地图位置保存[老粉]" and then right-click and save to the path given in the previous line.

Damn , these teams are really hard to pick from....it's near impossible :S , but if I have to give a small edge , I would give to team Korea | ||

Also, Lyn's w/o a doubt the strongest player on his team, but he's lost to 3/4 of the China team very recently and had a close series with the fourth. But ReMinD is getting back in shape, so I do hope Team KR pulls through. ^^ It's not healthy for China to go unchallenged, lol. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Yumiko > FoCuS Yumiko > ReMinD Yumiko > Lawliet Yumiko < Lyn Fly100% < Lyn JN < Lyn TH000 < Lyn China 4-3 Korea. Thanks, Lyn, that could've been otherwise very one-sided. Replays are here: w3g.replays.net (click the latest ones tagged AWC) VODs aren't out yet, though they should be soon. I'll link to them when I find them. @ Silencioseu: Most people these days play on BNet or Garena or (if in China) VSClient (which is like Garena, but it's more difficult since all the pros play on this one these days; don't bother with it unless you live in Asia though, as the lag is horrible). ZOTAC Cup is weekly, but it is one of those "don't expect to get far unless you're at least semi-pro level." (You have people like JN, TH000, ReMinD, FoCuS, Reprisal, Lawliet, etc. competing in it regularly.) The next tournament to watch out for is HAD (Aug. 18-19): http://war3.replays.net/page/20120815/1718421.html --- ALSO: For all you UD players out there, a ton of Believe VODs were just released. Over 100 games apparently, some never before seen. Someone is uploading them all to Youtube. Have fun. | ||

And where do people play 'cause all i find are dota rooms, even in the TFT section, and is really annoying me. Also In what regions in b.net do most people hang, and will i have alot of latency if i play on the US(generally in US servers i have 250 ping, is it bad for wc3?)? | ||

All I encounter are angry, extremely bad mannered Eastern Europeans with barely any English whose computers take literally 15 minutes to load the game. How do I ignore people again? | ||

I think we have quite a few people in USEast playing ladder. I would suggest just giving the different servers a try; you never know, your lag could be manageable. Coming from SC2, the lag will probably be noticeable even if you're playing on your own server. Anywhere from 1/4 to 1/2 second delay is normal even with good internet. (Garena is no-lag LAN mode btw, so it's more enjoyable to play on Garena, but if you can't host games or don't have practice partners already it can get pretty annoying ... kind of like iCCup, I guess, lol.) | ||

I haven't used Garena for a while, but you can try trawling through the rooms or finding groups of War3 players to play with. I think WCReplays is usually pretty decent for finding practice partners, and it looks like the War3 Reddit community is pretty active these days too (more newbies though?), so you can try that as well.

The thing is that, i can BARELY find any games for wc3 in garena even on Europe room 2(which i have been told is the go-to room for wc3?). I played a couple of times though. | ||

No qualifiers were held. The top three players from last year were chosen to represent KR in the WCG. Yes, that is Moon, Lyn, and ReMinD. There are quite a few fans angry about the lack of chance for players like Reprisal, Lawliet, Lucifer, FoCuS, etc. to prove themselves. I'm not sure what this means for Moon. He's stated before he would prefer to play War3 at WCG, but unless it's stipulated in his contract, I don't see it happening. | ||
