Not anymore. WoW was dropped from IEM and MLG, and Blizzard still hasn't released proper spectating tools, replays, etc. Recently players started their own tournament with curse backing, but it's going to take a lot to push WoW back into the e-sport scene..

what a pickup for fnatic
Not a chance. He is good. But not top 3.
MMA, MVP, SuperNoVa are better and MKP has 2-0d him in a TvT very recently
Dont be too sure about the latter two.
I think he would beat them in todays shape. MKP is overrated and often struggles in TvT
4-0ed Round 16, GREAT JOB ALIVE !!!
How dare you.
How dare you insult the MKP like that.
MKP's TvT is amazing, he lost in Code A to Ganzi who is also a top level TvTer and has not been knocked out a GSL by anyone else in TvT except MVP or MMA.
lol calm down boy
just so happy for fnatic, who must be pretty excited right now...understandably every foreign team would be happy to add such an player.
You might as well wanna play mech in TvT now at least to get used to , because in HoTS mech will be a lot more used . It's a tough thing to learn if you didn't play terran in BW , positioning and defensive skills are really important .
I didn't even realize that was a real team....I thought it was a sponsorship thing kind of like Whitera and Grubby.
its one of the biggest eSports Team around atm, it has been since allmost 15 years
Correction, it WAS one of the biggest teams around. Lets be honest, after the entire GuX debacle it started to go downhill The only saving grace was their WoW guild, who left shorty after their true call to fame.
yes last year I am disliking them more and more, but still they are big
That raises a good point: how much of a roster do they even have now? Their Dota 2 team is no more now...Quake, CS and MC only now?
don't they have a WoW arena team?
I thought they all left for Ensidia
Their arena team was separate from the Eu guild SK-Gaming(aka Curse) after the merger with Affenjungs.
Alive looked very, very good today. Its going to take more than a good day to make him top 3 in the world though, are you guys kidding me? Almost every player looks godly sometimes, and then they flop. It takes a period of dominating consistency ala MVP MMA etc to be considered top.

I LOVE aLive. Ugh, I'm so happy he's succeeding.
We'll see how MoP changes things for arena. Monks may totally destroy any balance options as it stands.
Then again, Blizz may just abandon WoW as a competitive aspect and focus on Diablo 3 and SC2 more, as well as Titan
EPT
