FiFo and +5 gamers to Sandlot

[s]event_212[/s]

A new day has come, as well as five new players in the Sandlot, and one new team! Here are the names of the newcomers, along with FighterForum, which is the first Korean team invited to the tournament.

FighterForum, home of the professional Korean Brood War scene. Not only covering the Korean leagues and players online, but they also release a weekly magazine called esForce. High quality pictures of the Korean progamers, coverage to the max and a professional attitude, that's what FighterForum is about. It was quite natural to see their name on the invited communities for the Blizzard Sandlot tournament. Their leader for FighterForum's team is

Pocari.
- We'd like to wish a warm welcome to the first community representing the mighty StarCraft nation of South Korea, they write at Battle.Net.

Five out of eight teams have thus been revealed:

The five new players have been added. Two Koreans this time, in the form of GosuGamers very own replay administrator

Nal_CrayOn and

In_Dove (read more about In_Dove in an interview » here). The two are not that highly ranked in the GosuGamers Database, but they are two strong Koreans to watch out for.

We see yet another GosuGamers replay admin on the list of buyable players. The Templars of Twilight member

iNcontroL has been added as well, who recently took down SquaLL in a Face 2 Face match here at GosuGamers. One of the strongest Zerg players from the West and is ranked 22nd in the Database.

The two Eastern Europe players

mYm.Advokate and

SoL.Strelok have also been added to the player pool, who both are ranked high, Advokate at 5th and Strelok 14th.

We now know 13 of the 80 players invited to the Sandlot, but already a large panel of choice is offered to the participating teams. Let's hope we will see some new Blizzard Sandlot updates very soon, and be sure GosuGamers will bring you a full coverage of this event!
