Looks awesome with all the old good players signing up. Will there be a page with the different streams available, like on teamliquid.net?

Edit: Sporting, are you playing aoe3 regularly?

Unfortunately not at all. Perhaps it's not the best strategy but I'm kinda waiting for the announcement of the groups before going in again now that university is back.

the results are kinda hard to follow, the brackets are only viewable on the pkclan website here:

I just know that H2O won vs nag@yumi(why censored??) and is proceeding to the finals, which he will win anyway. Samwise signed up but didn't show up for his games..

The prize pool increased to 2650$ btw.

You're reading it wrong guys (I think). Both gs and h2o lost in the semi finals.

No they didn't . They forfeited their matches because they didnt wanna play with lag but hte tournament host kept insisting on it.
