The successor in spirit of the long disbanded DIPS, still consists pf four players from the original lineup, one and a half years ago. Responsible for the reunion is fifth man and team captain Troels 'syndereN' Nielsen. For DreamHack Winter, the team joined the open qualifier and carried their own computers like ordinary gamers. Since then, WHB did not lose a single match in neither the qualification tournament nor group- and playoff-stage. Tomorrow will tell wether the streak continues.



Opponent in the semi final was group 1's second place finisher SK Gaming, who advanced alongside later eliminated TeamShakira from France. The Danes had struggled to perform up to shape during the entire tournament and were as a result unable to stay in the tournament. WHB, who outclassed the competition in the group stage before, had a seemingly easier time doing so in the Semi Final, relying on the power of Night Stalker and Anti-Mage to gain momentum.

The Scandinavian mix will therefore have to battle FnaticMSI tomorrow, a team who they already met and defeated in the group stage. The game will take place at 17:00 CET.
