WESG EU & CIS finals draw to a close

The best players EU & CIS went to battle this weekend for a spot at the WESG Global Grand Finals.

WCS may have concluded some time ago and everyone is currently anticipating Blizzcon in a few weeks, but the Starcraft scene certainly hasn't been twiddling its thumbs. We just got over the shocking finals of the KeSPA Cup but already more events are wrapping up. Over the last few months the World Electronic Sports Games (WESG), organized by Alibaba, have been searching the globe for each champions from every region to go to China in order to compete for their share of $182,000.

Africa and Middle-east qualifier found Drager, Stephano, and Zerghamdi booking their flights, while Invictus Gaming's iAsonu can sit patiently at home waiting for December to come as he is the lone Chinese player to compete.

This weekend, Europe's best traveled to Kiev to discover who would be representing Europe as the EU & CIS national qualifiers concluded. The top 8 finishers all get to take a place at the global grand finals in December and so, getting to the quarter finals would be enough, while doing even better gave them major bragging rights and a strong seed looking forward to the Global finals.

The eight players representing Europe this December are:

1st- Nerchio (defeated Elazer 4-1)
2nd- Elazer

4th- Namshar
5th/8th- Marinelord
5th/8th- Harstem
