WCG Korea: Who will win?

WCG Korea is on-going at the moment, and we here at GosuGamers will give you the updates that you need! Last year iloveoov, Julyzerg and Midas[gm] qualified, but will they have the strength to do it again?



In the first Qualification Round, there will be included the first 24 in KeSPa from July and 2 amateurs who qualified through a Amateur Qualification, which will be 26 players in all. Top #1, #2 and #3 in KeSPa from July are automaticly seeded for second round, and so are the WCG finalists from 2006. The 2 amateurs who qualified are kumjeja[3.33] and DeviL[fOu].

Aug. 6th:

Much > UpMagiC

Aug. 7th:
GoRush < Free
YellOw[ArnC] > GGPlay

Aug. 8th:

Aug. 9th:

IriS < Nal_Ra
JaeDong > XellOs

We asked one of our own editors what his thoughts on the matches were, here are his words:
- The list is full of such strong players. It's going to be hard to predict who will come out on top. The dominating players such as sAviOr, JulyZerg, Iloveoov, etc. have already recieved the seeds for RO16. So out of the players left, I really have my eye set on n.Die_Jaedong. Yes, he did lose against Nal_Rock pretty bad, recently in a BO5, but if you've seen him in other games - he is a monster. I may be wrong but I do hope that Jaedong makes top 3 in WCG, says Korea Dawn.

The WCG winners and top 3 KeSPa are waiting for the rest from Round of 32:
