The first games of the WarCraft III tournament at BlizzCon were played yesterday. Tonight 22.00 CET we can look forward to a winner's bracket final and a couple of loser bracket matches.



ReMinD over ToD, and Creolophus over Moon equals ReMinD against Creo in the winner brackets final. In the loser brackets, Grubby will take on his teammate ToD, and Moon will face Shy. Nilknarf and Kiwikaki were the first two to leave the tournament.

Final Update: 4k.Creolophus has finally won his first major tournament which ironically is so close to his retirement. Many people wondered and criticized Creolophus when he was nominated for WC3l's MVP, but now he has proved his worth as a top notch WarCraft 3 player and has a shiny trophy to shush all the critics. Congratulations to Scandinavian player, and we here at Gosugamers wish him the best of luck.
