Wins one torunament - has to be the most consistent and the best palyer in the world? I think this Round up is about constant prove of your power and not about 1 shotting in the turnament scene (even though he won the qualifier for the finals too. I my self am a bit confused. I read that SEA hasnt a lot of tournaments and thats why there i no real competition. (in an other thread). Now I read through this and notice to have the same amount or even more of cups than any other server in the world. Sure there are bigger ones in Europe/Korea/Armerica but thats a shitload of tournaments. Hopefully someone will step up and show that SEA can prove to be competitive. (other than moonglade) | ||

(other than moonglade) As far as the Puma thing, players on Korean teams are currently ineligible for the little ranking thing that I do, as this is meant to showcase talent outside of Korea. This may change in the very near future, as SC is becoming much more globalized. It's a tough call, as it seems wrong to overlook these players, but at the same time I'd rather not have Koreans constantly overshadowing all the top foreign talent that this is intended to showcase. As far as SEA, they normally don't have this many events packed into such a small space, however there's been more notable events lately. It should also be noted that the SEA community isn't as well-covered as it should be, and many events go un-noticed. | ||

To this Puma thing: I like it, that there are no koreans in the roundup. When I wan't to know korean domination, i just watch GS(T)L. But its hard to follow all these EU/US Tournies to see who does well outside of korea. | ||

![]() Both of these events took place at the same time in Lille, north of france. Something to note is that the french world cyber games qualifier took place at the same time in Paris so several top french players were not able to enter these tournaments (such as Adelscott and Sarens). These two tournaments were actually linked, if I recall correctly the first players of the masters were automatically seeded for the medion challenge while the other had to go through an open qualifier. Another thing to note is that seeding for the masters des jeux vidéos finals was acquired through playing in the master des jeux vidéos circuit, which consisted in several Lan events all other France in the previous months. As mentionned before I could not catch most of the games so i cannot really talk about them. More informations there (in french and english) : http://www.lilleaujeuvideo.com/fr/masters/ http://www.lilleaujeuvideo.com/fr/arena/medion | ||

If it wasn't for TL user ElTiozo, I wouldn't even know those events existed. iNViCiOUZ, that's exactly my feeling as well, but it's going to have to be something that's re-evaluated as the scene changes. | ||

Had I known I would have write right after but since I did not watch much of the tournament and several team were there (Millenium, cybernation, virus...) and wrote reviews at least for their players I though it got bigger coverage than that. Anyway, I'll be more careful about that If get the chance to attend another event of this kind. (well I know i'll be at gamescom but it will be covered already ![]() | ||

They took place at the same time but WCG qualifiers were in Paris while ESWC qualifiers (master des jeux vidéos finals) and Medion challenge were in Lille. | ||
