JulyZerg & Pusan Void WCG

[s]event_wcg[/s]

Possibly the two best Korean gamers that had a chance to go to Singapore Singapore for the WCG Grand Finals have dropped out of the national qualifying finals in Korea. Korea Pusan[S.G] and Korea JulyZerg both apart of the Pirates of Space professional team have both decided to void the WCG finals



The two professional gamers both decided to not participate in the group stage that was to be played soon. The problem? Both gamers are apart of the same professional team. This means that they help train one another and know each other's strategies. What's the big deal about all this? The WCG Korea committee placed both of the players into the same group. Both claim that the officials did not make the drawing the correct way by having the KeSPA members there as witnesses.

The other six progamers were placed into different groups that did not have another teammate in it with them. But out of the entire 8 professionals Korea JulyZerg and Korea Pusan were placed in the same group, which aroused questions that led to suspicions.

So as you can see there are 8 players and 5 different teams. If you include the 4 amateurs than you have 12 players. Each of the players would be split up into 4 different groups, 3 players per group.

The big question is: "How will WCG officials respond?" Will they remake the groups? Will they switch players around? Or will they let the groups stand? Only the future will tell what will happen.
