Nomad writting news. World is doomed... :D

A "big" 1.6 event in Asia. That seems a rarity nowadays.
2012-09-20 15:13:19
Asian scene might keep 1.6 "alive" in some way :)) Sure, you won't get to see the top teams, but hey, it is a tournament, right? :D

why would an all american team be in an even called "Asia Esports Cup". 1 - 2 players yes, maybe. but a whole team? think for a second. you dont have to be a genius.

plus how can u say "hybrid have better chance" when you dont even know who they are? what are you basing your so called "facts" on?

come on, boy.
2012-09-20 19:26:41
lool, i thought it was american flag for a while
2012-09-21 14:43:55
the rest four singaporean guys also have lots of pro-game experience.i know randy and strykerx are from ex-titans,and insanity was from aeon
anyway...we'll see
and sorry for my broken english
2012-09-20 17:29:30
Gogogoogo hybrid!!!!
2012-09-20 15:59:44
good luck Hybrid
2012-09-20 16:00:15
Tell iem that's how we get team's from Asia rather then having championships and allowing the best teams from the world and then complaining we never get teams from those continents..
2012-09-20 16:02:39

2012-09-20 16:06:56
