It really sucks, because 2 French cs tournaments will be held at the same time. Really want to see all those top French teams at 1 event (Virus Gaming, nSydia, LDLC.com alonside with eSahara, Millenium)

Check match pages for lineups. Theres another event in France this weekend (Finales des Masters du Jeu Video), where the other French teams have gone to.
2011-07-01 16:12:32
Okey, thx. Missed the match posts if they where up when I made the comment. ;C
2011-07-01 16:37:23

Not sure yet. Maybe.
2011-07-01 17:21:05
what's the prizemoney in that tournament? can't believe the two tournaments collide and on top of that 2-3 of the top5 teams are prioritizing the "random" event before the wcg qualifier.

but yeah, i guess they know they dont really have a shot against beating Millenium or eSahara so naturally they choose the one where they got a chance to win some prize money. sad :[

1. 1250€ + spot at ESWC
2. 600€ + spot at ESWC
2011-07-02 08:52:17
oh, ESWC-qualifier. that makes their decision a lot more understandable.

terrible to have those two important qualifiers colliding though.
2011-07-02 14:07:53

2011-07-01 16:14:43
boring.. without good enemies as nSydia, Virus and LDLC this is not a good qualifier.
2011-07-01 16:16:21
-M- vs eSahara will be fun though :D kinda like Real Madrid - Barca

Yes, but it's just one match... while we could enjoy more from another great matches.

2011-07-01 17:48:44
Yep. It's sad to see the french scene is killing itsself :(
2011-07-01 18:53:01
Yeah... once the French scene was interesting and actually watching a match of emuLate was something special!

Now watching Millenium/eSahara isn't the same as watching the legendary emuLate.
2011-07-01 20:55:59
eSahara <3

2011-07-01 20:22:19
this kinda sucks, if the winner goes to korea and looses his groupstage he gets nothing


while the 2nd place gets atleast 1000 euro + prizes :/
2011-07-01 19:39:48
well the winner gets the experience and they get to stay there for another 2 days, which means that they can see the town and all of that.
2011-07-01 20:22:19
Millenium
2011-07-01 19:48:15
