WCA postpones 2017 event

23/11/2017 - 00:09

The WCA 2017 Finals have been postponed to next year, the event's organisers have announced.

World Cyber Arena has revealed that, "after careful consideration", the 2017 Finals, originally scheduled for December 17-22, will run at an unspecified date in 2018.

According to the announcement, this postponement is not only "due to the events, tournaments schedule and player plan conflicts", but also because of "Christmas and other major tournaments like ELEAGUE Major".

Luminosity have qualified for the WCA 2017 Finals

Although the ECS Season 4 Finals do not affect most of the teams that are confirmed for WCA 2017 Finals—only Luminosity are still battling for a place at the Mexican event —, the fact that the dates of the two competitions clashed is believed to have influenced the decision.

With only the Chinese and the Wild Card qualifiers still to be played, here is how the list of participants of WCA 2017 Finals, which will be held in Yinchuan, China, currently looks:

BOOT-d[S]	Chiefs
Heroic	Gambit
Luminosity	Isurus
Next Generation	Valour

uff almosted got hearth attack

With that team list, I doubt anyone cares

Are you mad because a team from Argentina will actually attend a LAN that HLTV notices the existence of and I said it wasn't a good tournament? Lol, in the context of pro CS Isurus must suck because I've never heard of them. They're not even top 100

2017-11-23 00:45

+1, even though they don't actually suck that much as they're one of the best teams in SA. The fact that he says that the players are better than you is stupid.

2017-11-23 02:56

don't mind him, he's been doing nothing else than copy pasting in every thread involving Isurus or any other national team, without really paying attention to what the comment he's replying states

2017-11-23 06:44

still 1000000000000000000000000000000 times better than you. So shut up and respect amateur

GF was a total disappointment on the qualifiers for this tourney, they won't get invited in LG's place

2017-11-23 06:48

Disappointment? LOL, they lost both maps 16-13 and 16-12 against fucking onliners which beaten SK on EPL, you call that a disappointment? What a fan of your team :p

2017-11-23 07:10

beeing a fan doesn't mean you have to deny the negatives, they lost on first round in a qualifier most people especulated they could win, that's a big disappointment if you ask me

2017-11-23 07:28

IT WAS COMPLEXITY, HOW IS THAT DISAPPOINTMENT? Those guys are in EPL, top #29 in the world, one of the biggest Orgs in the world, and you call that a disappointment? They can't beat that team because its a fucking onliner team

retarded fanboy here, no point in explain

2017-11-23 14:34

I don't care if they lost to coL, SK or freaking Kitsune, they ended last place, end of the story
