With all the groups in round one done, MediaESports.com has decided to give the runner-ups a chance to still move on to the second round. Who will it be? It's completely up to the community.

The second round of the Ascension tournament begins soon and we have seen some spectacular play in every group and game so far. Instead of introducing a new group to play for the ninth spot of round 2, Media saw fit to let the second place finishers from all of the other groups get another chance to continue. The only catch was that the audience gets to vote on exactly who. To vote, you must sign up at MediaESports.com and vote on their forum.

Also, be sure to watch group 8 compete, as the Warship himself Ukraine MYM.Strelok played against RoX's Ukraine Alf and Russia localhost. Despite some very close battles, it was Russia RoX.localhost who won the group with Ukraine MYM.Strelok coming in an extremely close second place, ending up with a shot at the second round only if he can secure enough votes.

Be sure to stay tuned in and watch all of the action unfold!


UPDATE: Voting is closed and Dreiven won the vote and will be going on to the 2nd round.
