WCG Asian Championship 2009: DoTA Qualifier Announced, FIFA’09 Player Chosen

June 16, 2009 by Chapree

One month after the details of WCG Asian Championship 2009 (WCGAC’09) started to appear online, the status of Malaysian contingent to the regional competition are still in doubt. So, we got in touch with WCG Malaysia National Organizer - In2 Marketing & Consulting , to gather official status of our national team.

We are relieved to say that DoTA and FIFA’09 representative status has been resolved.

Announced by MyGaming-Lim in our forums earlier today, the qualifier will take place on 27th June 2009 at Cybertime, OUG. Registration for each team is RM 100 but there are no mention of any prizes except for free accommodation to compete at WCGAC’09 in Singapore next month for the champion.

Next is FIFA’09 representative. Since there is no WCGAC’09 qualifier event as per last year, according to WCG Inc. regulations, the representative will be the last year’s national champion. In this case, that would be [T2.W|nDs]Vin but as WCGAC’09 clashed with FIFA Online 2 Asian Championship Qualifier, the honor goes to the 1st Runner Up winner instead which is [T2.W|nDs]Lo0n4tic.

Last but not least, Guitar Hero World Tour representative. As Xbox 360 is yet to be officially released here, the national organizer is not in position to organize a qualifier and also, the last year’s champion regulations doesn’t apply to our country since WCG Malaysia never had a Guitar Hero event before. That being said, the status for GHWT spot in Malaysian team will be made known very-very soon.

That’s all for now…but don’t run away first, we got one more WCG-related news for you guys. Stay tuned.
