History is being written. For the first time ever, the world's best MGE players will compete on LAN to become the MGE World Champion. Over the past four months, players have fought through regional qualifiers for a chance to earn their place on the world stage. In April, Alov secured his trip to North America via the European Qualifier. In June, logan and sighguy finished first and second, respectively, in the North American Qualifier completing the field. Now, they will face off against the defending World Champion, kobe1920, who returns to defend his title. But online qualifiers only earned them a seat at the table. Who will clutch up under the brightest lights with the World Championship title on the line?
