wcg report

WCG report 2005
It was day 1 and we are so excited. It was our debut (me and my brother). We arrived at glorietta at 1:00 pm, thought we are late though. Fortunately for us, the crew has just finished setting up the computers. The crowd were average. There were 3 big flat screens so people can observe and spectate. It is really nice that fellow gamers like me have come to support this international activity. Day 1 is double elimantion day. You lose 2 games then you're out. When my name was called, I am so surprised to see my opponent. It was Mr. Ariel known in the warcraft scene as mb_daeva!! A veteran and a well respected player. He actually finished 3rd place last year. I feel sorry for myself as if I had no chance. The game was started and my whole body is shacking. About 5 minutes into the game the unexpected happened. The electricity at Glorietta were busted. I was saved at least for 2 minutes. The game was restarted and I took this chance to regain my confidence, thanks for the brownout. It was hard but I won in an game that almost drained my brain out. Ralp is even surprised that I won. 2nd match for me is more harder. The very talented Mr. Justin an undead player just like me. I know I can take a mirror match but I was really surprised by his well played strategy. My score is 1-1 and im down to the losers bracket. Im complaining to the marshalls because the matching system doesn't make sense. My 3rd match is mb_daeva again (who I already defeated). Of course I can't do anything anything but to fight. It was sweet revenge for him but it was a well fought match for both players. And there my quest has ended. It was a very memorable experience and I will join again next year! Congratulations to all the champions. Goodluck to you all yo! I lose but im not deafeted. I got 1 shirt, 1 jacket and a whole bunch of new friends!!
