| xqR WCG Wrap-up |
August 09, 2008 |
After a long 2 days, there is finally a conclusion to the WCG Singapore Nationals. Just to clear up a few things, xqR did have two teams playing, under the flagships - xqR and xqR.AG.
The xqR lineup consisted of:
Daniel 'myztery' Seaton
Chris 'spitty' Seaton
Isaac 'Isaac' Wejie
Nicholas 'nic' Ho
Zul 'zul' Fadli
xqR and xqR.AG were unfortunately drafted into the same Group (G) with xqR coming out on top, getting the relatively easier side of the draw. Again this year WCG chose to play a single-elimination format and the results for both teams are as follows:
Top 16
xqR 16 > 9 Noobs Incoming!
xqR.AG 16 > 3 RtL
Quarter-Finals
xqR 16 > 6 oOo
xqR.AG 16 > 13 Rage Faction
Semi-Finals
xqR 16 > 13 wwts
xqR.AG 16 > 4 WwF.
And last but not least the finals with both of our teams meeting, a repeat of the GXL finals from late last year. Ultimately xqR triumphed over xqR.AG and took the title again after a 1 year hiatus, with the only original member from the WCG winning 2006 team being myztery I took some time to ask him a quick question.
How does it feel to win?
It's great to be able to represent Singapore again, it was very disappointing losing last year and to be able to redeem myself and the team was amazing, it's a little sad that I did not have a few of my old team mates by my side though. With all things said and done though, I am also grateful, especially for Nic's efforts this year, he pulled me out from under the rough and basically forced me to play this year even though me and Chris were reluctant, and ultimately it paid off.
xqR will be keeping you all updated on everything leading up to our campaign in Cologne, Germany to represent Singapore once again. A big shout-out to all the fans and supporters that were there over the two days. We would also like to extend personal shout-outs to Lawrence, Darren, Grace, Angel, Kelly and Emily all for being there through thick and thin! We love you guys. Last but not least, the people behind rapture, notably the head admins, Andrei and Fudgie for their hard work. |
