Erm... will there be a qualifier for everybody else? Cause I think it's a waste that only german teams can go to China only to get wrecked.

Restrictions: minimum age: 18 years
I think the age limit is good although the thing with 3 germans is a bit wierd since most teams with 3+ germans are german teams full on witch makes it pretty much a german-team-only cup. Unless new teams will be made I dont really see the point of this tournament beeing on ESL EU rather thatn ESL DE.
its only for old players again lol
So it is 100% for 18 and above? That sucks :), next year maybe then
ahaha what a joke
see thats my point , now this will be a flame thread instead of posting this in the german section it wouldnt be a problem .
Germans, Germans everywhere!
Germans everywhere and why? Because its about TEAM GERMANY when you get the chance to go to the WCG in China.
Nice to see that something like that happens in a F2P game. I will definatly go to the Gamescom and watch those games.
so in theory uk players could link up with 3 german players and play at wcg, tho were not supposed to be allowed play cf eu ?

Hahahah,well this is soo pathetic.I dont understand...there has to be 3 germans in team???,Why???,and that team will represent German team??..So u think that German Country(team) is the best in Eu.,but ur wrong..Germany team played last wcg in busan and got raped so,i dont see the point of this.U should put normal National Cup(and the winner will go to Wcg bc that country(team) will be the best in eu...-.- so lame!
I understand that it would be more fair, if it was a National Tournament: At least 51% same Country. The best team represents Europe. Maybe another day, another year :)
3 Germans on the team??.

Racism??.

I want pwned germaaans!! :(
lmao
1) it's in the middle of the summer
2) 3 must be german
3) 18+

hehe
i think only 2teams will signup, so you can put them in the final directly.
Again such an amazing cup by the admins, well done and it's quite funny, you always claime that you "keep spending time to improve ESL-CF", while you are just supporting germany cuz all these bullshit sponsors (SGI, etc) are german and want their country to win

i don't give a shit anymore
but since i'm on vacation and have no contact with comegetsome
make a team: vulpar,king,aximise
i'm sure vulpar will come back for this trip, thats why he came back in the past.
get 2 guys more, carry their ass
and send me some of these 500Euros


fuck friday,blackhawk,.. all other german shit admins (except loones and mars)
you can all suck my dick

Hey guys,

to sort out a few questions:

.. wrote:
will there be a qualifier for everybody else?

I'm pretty sure there will be qualifiers for other countries as well, but this is nothing we (ESL) have any influence on. This is purely a matter of WCG and for them to decide.

.. wrote:

We are actually re-checking this. If anything changes we will update the news!

David

it may have alot to do with wcg and their rules, i believe they set what countries have qualifiers........

If the age restriction is 18, only 2 players from Tera Gaming (correct me if I am wrong) will be able to play. Arguably, they are the better of the 'better' teams in Europe currently. No team that Qualifies is going to have solid experience together, due to the short notice of the rules. Once again Germany will be represented poorly. Disregarding the jealousy other countries probably feel towards this opportunity Germany has, I don't think anyone wants to see this team do bad in WCG.

Seems like it's Germany only, as maybe they can't afford to sent a team outside Germany to gamecon?

WCG used to be strictly developed for the Asian market,
so they have no damn rules about Germany

SGI,Gamerage,ESL,.. are all german
ofc. they want atleast 1 german team going to WCG.
There might come more international qualifiers for WCG,
but this will be all done by WCG itself. SGI and Gamerage have nothing to do with that.
But SGI,Gamerage,.. want to be sure to have atleast 1 german team in there,
so WCG gave them one slot and now they want to give it away to a German team,
so they can be sure there will be a german team in the WCG.

It would be a shame if there wouldn't be any German team in the WCG, while the game is made by Germans and the german community is the biggest one in this game.

But hey, this german team will even fail harder than the previous one who went to the WCG 2k11. (they won 0matches)

We won 0 matches because we got like 2 weeks to train , because they failed about giving informations etc
and USA for example got more then 3 montch to train.
